Massage has been used as a curing therapy for many
thousands of years. Records dating back to 2700 B.C. show that in China
massage was used to treat many illnesses or to prevent any. Even
Hippocrates, the famous Greek physician writing in 400 B.C.,
recommended that physicians should treat war or sports injuries with
rubbing and massage.
The ancient cultures of Japan, Rome, Egypt and Arabia all considered
massage to be calming, soothing and relaxing, and also very important
as a therapeutic therapy. Now, in the 21st century, there are many
different kinds of massage therapies available, each of which offers
specific benefits to the mind and body. Full Body Massage is one of
them.
These forms of specific massage can be used to treat a wide range of
conditions, plus they can be used to simply unwind and relax.
What are the benefits?
Full Body Massage promotes relaxation and improved sleep, eases the
symptoms of stiff, tired joints, encourages improved circulation and
speeds up digestion. Clients who have experienced these forms of
dedicated massage report that they find the treatment soothing and
relaxing.
The skin's natural functions will be stimulated improving the condition
of the skin and the warmth created will help relax the body physically
and mentally. Full Body Massage technique involves a sequence of
movements working superficially and deeper into the tissue layers.
Movements such as effleurage work over the skin with the palm of the
hand producing relaxation, whereas movements like petrissage work
deeply. Petrissage movements such as wringing and kneading will help to
relieve tension promoting deep relaxation in the tissues and muscles.
What to expect?
As no two people are alike, the body massage routine will be tailored
to the client's needs. For those clients who are apprehensive about a
massage treatment and of course the stigma attached to this may need
some reassurance. A professional Massage Therapist will offer this
treatment respecting the client's modesty at all times. The client is
covered in towels, which are turned back to reveal only the area to be
massaged at that time. Areas massaged in a full body massage are
normally back, legs (back and front), arms front of shoulders and
optionally abdomen.
By ensuring you call only a reputable, established company that has
professional certificates and qualifications for its therapists, you
will receive a wonderful, relaxing, treatment.
Why a Full Body Massage?

very relaxing and soothing massage. Available full Body Massages are
for example:

As with any massage, it's a good idea to avoid big meals and alcohol
beforehand.
