Massage affects the connecting tissue and the muscles. It accelerates blood circulation. and this influences the veins and lymphatic system.
Toxins produced by the metabolism gather in the fluid between the cells. These toxins are discharged out of the body through massage.
Massage influences the inner organs through the connecting tissue.
Through regular massage muscle pain, stiffness and painful knots on the muscles
disappear. Tense muscles get relaxed and muscles not working at all are helped to
work.
Through massage, we can increase or reduce the resistance of flesh
and tightness of the muscles. Here the aim is to find the muscle tightness
specific to the constitution of the person.
Our consciousness may not be aware of contracted areas but massage
helps our cerebellum to realize that. Massage applied to these areas
helps the cerebellum to take the message of contraction and gives
the order to release. We may call this self-healing. Massage does
not show full affects without this internal healing process. Actually
any treatment starts with the intention to heal oneself and massage
activates this self-healing power.
