What are the effects of medical massage?
Medical massage is an extremely effective therapeutic method that can help with a variety of complaints caused by muscle tension. These include acute and chronic severe tension, back pain, muscle strains, neck tension and headaches.
Medical massage can also alleviate complaints caused by muscle overload, such as cramps, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow and leg strain caused by intensive sport. It can also help with post-accident complaints, pain in the upper or lower back, unilateral pain, shoulder pain and pain in the shoulder girdle as well as pain caused by foot misalignment.
With what complaints can medical massage help?
A medical massage is a comprehensive treatment method that not only targets specific problems, but also has positive effects on the entire body.
Various techniques are used to relieve or even dissolve acute and chronic tension. At the same time, blood circulation is increased to ensure better tissue supply and adhesions in the tissue and fascia are loosened, which improves mobility.
The massage can also loosen scar tissue and accelerate wound healing. It also has positive effects on headaches and migraines by releasing tension and dissolving trigger points to reduce pain.
Massage also promotes the decongestion of veins and lymph flow, stimulates the organs and contributes to the general relaxation of the muscles and nervous system.
What’s the procedure of a medical massage at Origin Winterthur?
At the beginning of the therapy session, you and your therapist will have an introductory conversation in which you discuss important details about your state of health. This conversation usually lasts between 5 and 20 minutes and serves to clearly define the goals of the treatment.
You will then have time to get changed and lie down on the treatment couch.
The treatment will be adapted and carried out according to the previously discussed preferences. Your therapist will be available to answer any questions or comments during the session.
At the end of the session, further appointments for follow-up treatments can be arranged if desired.
How many treatments does it usually take?
The number of treatments depends on the individual symptoms. It usually takes 1-6 sessions to achieve relief. If you do not notice any improvement after the third treatment, it will be evaluated whether another therapist can better help with your problem.
What is the difference between a classic and a medical massage?
In contrast to medical massage, classical massage focuses on the general tension of the body, such as in the shoulder and neck area as well as in the back or legs. It aims at relaxation, stress reduction, and enhancing overall well-being. Medical massage, on the other hand, is more focused on the body’s health condition and aims to address severe tension or assist the body in recovery after injury or surgery.
