Back Massage Techniques
from: Saurabh JainBack Massage is one of the best ways through which you can
relive yourself from back pain. You can use various back massage
techniques for benefits, such as relaxation, increased body
awareness, better blood circulation and improved lymphatic
drainage for release of toxins.
Selecting a right back massage technique is important for
receiving maximum benefits. Typically, during the back massage,
a masseur uses massage oil to decrease friction created on the
skin and to prevent the pulling of skin hair.
The less the quantity of oil applied, the greater is the
friction and deeper will be the pressure. Use light stroking
movements throughout your massage to move from one area to
another, to soothe an area of localized deep tissue or to make a
transition to another stroke.
Step By Step Guide for Back Massage
Mentioned below are few steps, which detail a back massage
technique for relieving one from back pain.
The person receiving the massage should lie down on his/her
belly on a firm, comfortable surface, such as a floor mat or
firm bed. Make sure that you the whole back of the massage
receiver is comfortably within reach. Stand by the side of the
person and place one hand on the lower back and teh other
between the shoulder blades, over the heart.
Warm up the back by applying thumb pressure along both sides of
the spine simultaneously: Start from the lower back and knead
gently with your thumbs up to the neck area. This will also
promote relaxation.
Use a smooth, delicate stroke, called "effleurage", to apply
massage oil. In one long stroke, slide your palms down either
side of the spine to the pelvis; scoop out around the hips and
back up the sides to the shoulders. Maintain contact with the
back. Move your hands over the back to start a new area.
Continue up both sides of the neck to the base of the head.
Starting at the spine, slide your palms in opposite directions
outward to the sides of the back, starting with the lower back
area, and moving up to the shoulders.
Knead the fleshy muscular areas at the top of the shoulders, the
mid-back area and the buttocks to loosen any tight muscles and
fascia, which is a connective tissue.
