Benefits of A Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that’s mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains and sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue.

People have also reported that deep tissue massage helps with:

• sports injuries
• fibromyalgia
• plantar fasciitis
• high blood pressure
• sciatica
• tennis elbow

Shiatsu Massage

The Shiatsu massage has its origins in Asia and includes a soothing and relaxing massage with fingers, thumbs or palms. The Beurer Foot Massager imitates this motion with 18 rotating massage heads. This type of massage can reach deep into the tissue and is ideally suited to muscles and to loosen tension.

Foot Reflex Massage

Reflexology is a separate practice that applies pressure to reflex zones on your feet to affect your entire body. The basic theory is that the pressure affects the nerves, which then carry signals to other parts of your body. Benefits can include relaxation and improved blood circulation. These benefits help relieve the effects of stress, which in turn helps your body heal itself.

Heat Function

Heat stimulates the sensory receptors in the skin. Heat and massage therapy provide a lot of the same benefits, and when used together, they may increase each other’s advantages. The Beurer Foot Massager has a heat function that can be switched on to create extra comfort and a more soothing massage.
