Effects of massage
Fundamentally with the massage, effects can be gotten
"mechanics" that are those taken place by means of the
manual contact and the effects "psychological or mental".
Mechanics effects
Inside
of the mechanics effects, can be distinguished two types:
-
Local effect that is the one that takes place in
an aching or treated area
-
Reflective effect that is the one that takes place
in a distant area to the one tried. For example, when acting in
the lumbar vertebras, effects take place in the intestinal area
that can be of help in the cases of constipation.
Besides the
effects on the muscular mass, the massages also act, in a beneficial
way, in:
 Effects on the sanguine
circulation
It increases the sanguine flow to the treated area and those related
with the same one, also favoring the veined return to the heart. We
should not forget that also with the massage, will be helped that
the blood distributes with more easiness the oxygen toward those
organs or fabrics that specify it, getting this way the best
regeneration in the same ones.
It improves at the same time, the liberation of histamines,
endorphins, etc. The effects of the massage, are also
made notorious, in the arterial circulation, an evidence of this
fact, is the rosy tone that acquires the area tried after some
sessions and the improvement that the patient experiences.
Effects on the lymphatic circulation
When acting on the skin of a certain area, we impact in the
lymphatic vessels
that are in an internal area, improving this way their specific
function.
Effects on the nervous system
The effect of the massage is multipurpose, since it can be
stimulating, when acting on the nerves motors, or
relaxing and sedative when acting on the
sensitive nerves; although in some exceptional cases, this rule
cannot be completed.
Effects on the muscular fabric
By means of the increase of the vascularization, that
gets the massage, the muscle will find with more easiness the
nutrients that specifies, helping also to the elimination of toxins
and waste products.
With the massage the contractures taken place by lack of the
appropriate sanguine watering are also avoided.
Effects on the fatty fabric
When the massage accompanies of an appropriate diet and/or exercise,
helps to dissolve with easiness, those bags or deposits of located
fat.
Effects on the bony fabric
Although the massage doesn't act directly on the own bone, to being
the bony fabric an alive element in constant renovation, the
activation of the sanguine circulation, accelerates the regeneration
processes and improvement of the bones, in cases of fractures for
example.
 Effects on the organs
The empty organs, how for example the stomach or the tripes, are
those more beneficiaries, for the effects of the massage, since for
their structure, they possess muscular fibers.
In the rest of organs non holes you will act in a reflective way.
Effects
on the skin
The massage
liberates the skin of having undone and of dead cells that can be,
in form of flakes.
When stimulating
the circulation of fluids as blood and lymph, active the nutrition
and cellular multiplication, contributing without the minor appears
of doubts, to retard the aging of the skin.
Psychological effects of the massage
Of all it is known that the relaxing effect of the massage,
stimulates the patient's receptivity, for this reason special care
will be had with the atmosphere, that is to say to have the
appropriate light, the opportune temperature, a relaxing music. The
stay will be clean and free of noises and stridencies. In a good
atmosphere it will be much simpler to obtain the trust of the
patient one and one must forget that some words of understanding, in
the appropriate moment, they usually produce effects so important as
the complete treatment.
