What is Massage?
Massage is a Hands-On treatment that relaxes and gives you joy where the spirit gets uplifted. If we medically define Massage Therapy: it is a systematic manual manipulation of the soft tissue that promotes wellbeing and health to a body & soul.
PhysioASSIST Massage Therapy™ is an outcome of years of experience where we felt that Physiotherapy alone is not enough to set healing of the musculo-skeletal and some selective Systemic problems of human body. As Massage compliments Orthodox medical treatment, we incorporated PHYSIO-Assisted guidance to go hand-in-hand with Physio-therapeutics.
Benefits of massage?
Massage is well indicated for stress related conditions as it promotes deep relaxation and helps fatigue. The stiffness and discomfort of postural tension after being identified by “ Joint Screening” is eased by stretching and warming the muscles as well as deeper fibrous knots and congestion. Increase circulation of oxygenated blood to the muscle promotes healing and the drainage of toxins helps strengthen the immune system. The deeper tissue work is particularly good for those who regularly participate in sporting activities.

Deep Tissue Massage is a massage technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fibres of the muscles, tendons and fascia. |

Myofascial Release (MFR)
This massage is focused on the fascial system, which is a network of connective tissues that holds the body together. A restriction in this system results in the reduction in flexibility, pain and a loss of endurance. Circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid may also be impaired due to fascial restrictions. This therapy involves the application of light traction to the area of pain or restriction.
MFR thus helps improve flexibility, relieves pain, increases endurance & helps the immune system by increasing blood and lymphatic flow. |
