Health Benefits of a Shiatsu Massage

February 7th, 2009 DDay Posted in Shiatsu 1 Comment »

When your muscles get cramped up they can cause  a lot of pain and the best way to relieve them is by having a massage. While some people opt  for medication to relieve themselves of the pain, they do not realize that medications do not actually relieve the cramps, they only mask the ache. During the course of a spasm, the muscles trigger  certain nerves that in turn send a signal to the brain. These signals off a chain reaction to other nerves and in turn you feel pain. Medicines just give a temporary relief by blocking the pain signals from reaching your brain.

Hence the best way to provide permanent relief to cramped muscles is by choosing to get a massage. There are many different types of massages and Shiatsu is one of them. The word Shiatsu has its origin in Japan and it means “finger pressure”. Many people may not realize that Shiatsu, like acupuncture, is based on the holistic system of traditional Chinese medicine. The main advantages of shiatsu massage over other forms of massages lies in the fact that no lotions, oils or lubricants are used. Because of this, there is no need to remove clothing therefore making clients more comfortable.

There are no special tables required for performing this type of massage since shiatsu can be practiced anywhere. There are even masseurs who set up clinics in office buildings allowing busy executives a moment to relax without having to change out of their clothing. It is versatile and can be performed on a table or mat, or even while the patient is seated. While receiving this type of massage, the recipient feels extremely relaxed and at the same time feels invigorated, refreshed and alert and does not tend to induce pain.

If you don't have the time to schedule an appointment for a Shiatsu Massage then you should consider a portable Shiatsu Massager. It's a personal massager that you can use in the comfort of your home.
