Why massage is good for your health?

Virtually every system of the body is affected by massage, either directly or indirectly. Here is a guide to how your body can benefit.The skeletal system: Bone is affected indirectly by massage. Improved circulation of blood brings oxygen and nutrients to the bones. Joint stiffness and pain can be reduced. As the muscles become more flexible, joint movement increases.

The muscular system: Some massage movements relax and stretch muscles, reducing muscular tension and cramp. Massage also makes muscles more flexible by reducing muscle tone. Muscles tired by exercise are more quickly restored by massage than by rest.

The nervous system: Soothing massage can provide relief from nervous irritability and stress-related conditions such as insomnia and tension headaches. When used energetically to stimulate, massage may relieve lethargy and fatigue.

Circulation system: Massage can improve the flow of blood, which can help poor circulation. This is especially useful for anyone who is immobile.

Lymphatic system: Gentle massage stimulates the lymphatic system, which helps clear the body of a build-up of waste products. The relaxing effect of the massage can relieve stress, which in turn can boost the immune system.

Respiratory system: As you become more relaxed during a massage, respiration may become slower and deeper as you are using your diaphragm for breathing and expending less energy. Physiotherapists use cupping movements over the base of the lungs to relieve chest congestion.

Digestive system: Massage aids relaxation and therefore can help to increase the movement of food and waste products through the digestive system. This relaxation can have a balancing effect on the digestive system.

Urinary system: Waste products that have been released during massage find their way via the blood to the kidneys where they may be filtered out and eliminated.

Female reproductive system: Menstrual problems such as period pains and PMS can be alleviated by the relaxing effects of massage, as can menopausal symptoms.

Aromatherapy Massage @ Langkawi

Aromatherapy massage is massage therapy enhanced with essential oils (highly concentrated plant oils) added to the massage oil or lotion.

Inhaling essential oils through the nose is thought to promote beneficial changes in the mind and body by affecting the limbic system (a region of the brain known to influence the nervous system). Essential oils are also believed to be absorbed through the skin.

Why Do People Get Aromatherapy Massage?

Since aromatherapy massage is a bit like Swedish massage but with scent added, people often get it for muscle- and joint-related conditions or for physical or mental stress.

Other conditions include:

  • Headache
  • Insomnia
  • Digestive disorders
  • Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
  • Back pain

Each essential oil used in aromatherapy is said to have different properties. For example, some calm while others energize. Here are some widely used essential oils and their purported properties:

  • Calming – chamomile, lavender, geranium
  • Uplifting – ylang-ylang, clary sage, rose, neroli
  • Energizing – rosemary
  • Decongesting – eucalyptus, pine, tea tree

Your massage therapist may pick oils based on your symptoms.

The Benefits of Aromatherapy Massage

Aromatherapy massage appears to reduce the pain and discomfort of menstrual cramps, a 2015 study from the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology suggests. Participants did a self-massage with rose essential oil, an unscented almond oil, or no oil on the first day of menstruation for two menstrual cycles. By the second cycle, aromatherapy massage reduced the severity of pain compared to massage therapy with almond oil or no oil.

Massage with aromatherapy may also ease menopausal symptoms. In a study published in Menopause, researchers compared 30-minute aromatherapy massage (twice a week for four weeks) to massage with plain oil or no treatment and found that both massage and aromatherapy massage were effective in reducing menopausal symptoms (with aromatherapy massage being more effective than massage only).

Other research suggests that aromatherapy massage may not be helpful for some conditions. For instance, a report published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews in 2016 evaluated the effects of massage with or without aromatherapy on symptom relief in people with cancer. Researchers analyzed previously published studies and concluded that “this review demonstrated no differences in effects of massage on depression, mood disturbance, psychological distress, nausea, fatigue, physical symptom distress, or quality of life when compared with no massage”.

When comparing aromatherapy massage with no massage, they found that “there was some indication of benefit in the aromatherapy-massage group but this benefit is unlikely to translate into clinical benefit”.

Final Thoughts

Aromatherapy with essential oil-scented massage oils and lotions may help to ease stress and anxiety. If you’re considering trying aromatherapy massage, talk with your massage therapist (and healthcare provider) about whether it’s appropriate for you.

Some additional tips on making the most of your massage:

  • Don’t eat a heavy meal before the massage
  • If it’s your first time at the clinic or spa, arrive early so you can complete the necessary forms. Otherwise, you may want to give yourself some time to rest and relax before starting the massage.

What is Malay Traditional Massage?

Malay Traditional massage is based on the kampung (old village heritage) massage practice. This comprehensive and effective massage therapy helps to relax the nerves and mind. Also popularly perceived as an efficient pre and post natal massage as it helps to improve blood circulation and stimulate nerves, traditional Malay massage involves stretching, stepping, long kneading strokes and pressure applied to every part of the body, from the head, face, abdomen, body to the toes of the feet.

Authentic traditional Malay massage therapy is usually done on the floor. The massage strokes can alternate between gentle and hard touches, depending on what the body needs, together with selected natural plants or herbal oils are applied during the massage.

Traditional Malay massage oil is a specially brewed massage oil that is carefully boiled with herbs that contain beneficial properties, such as antibacterial, warming, stimulating blood, anti-inflammatory, natural antibiotic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, as well as antifungal. The ingredients of this concocted oil are used to help remove toxin from the body.
