What to Expect During a Myofascial Therapy Session

Myofascial therapy is a specialized massage technique focused on relieving pain and tension in the myofascial tissues. These tissues are the tough membranes that wrap, connect, and support your muscles. During a session, the therapist will apply gentle, sustained pressure to the affected areas, helping to release tightness and improve mobility.

Clients can expect a thorough assessment of their posture and movement patterns, followed by targeted treatment to address specific areas of discomfort. The goal is to restore balance and function, leading to long-term relief from chronic pain and tension.

Swedish Massage

by AuraOm | May 24, 2024 | Modality

A Swedish massage session typically includes several components designed to provide relaxation and improve circulation. Here is a detailed breakdown of what you can expect when receiving a Swedish massage:

Consultation: The session usually begins with a brief consultation where the therapist asks about your medical history, any areas of concern, and what you hope to achieve from the massage (e.g., relaxation, relief from specific muscle tension).

Preparation:

• Disrobing: You will be asked to undress to your comfort level. Most clients undress completely, but you can keep your underwear on if you prefer.
• Positioning: You will lie on a massage table, typically starting face down, with a sheet or towel covering you for privacy and warmth. Only the part of your body being worked on is exposed at any given time.

Massage Techniques:

• Effleurage: Long, gliding strokes using the palms, thumbs, and fingers. This technique is used to warm up the muscles and promote relaxation.
• Petrissage: Kneading and squeezing the muscles to release tension and improve circulation.
• Friction: Deep circular or transverse movements to target deeper layers of muscle tissue.
• Tapotement: Rhythmic tapping or percussive movements, such as hacking or cupping, to stimulate muscles and nerves.
• Vibration: Rapid shaking or trembling movements to help relax and stimulate the muscles.
• Use of Oil or Lotion: The therapist will use massage oil or lotion to reduce friction on the skin and allow smooth, gliding movements. The choice of oil or lotion can vary based on personal preference and skin type.
• Focus Areas: The therapist will typically spend time on the major muscle groups, such as the back, legs, arms, neck, and shoulders. Special attention might be given to areas where you have noted specific discomfort or tension.
• Duration: A standard Swedish massage session can last anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes, though shorter or longer sessions can be arranged based on your needs and preferences.
• Communication: Throughout the session, the therapist may check in with you to ensure the pressure is comfortable and to adjust techniques based on your feedback.

Post-Massage Care:

• Relaxation: You may be given a few minutes to relax on the table before getting up.
• Hydration: It’s often recommended to drink water after the massage to help flush out any toxins released during the massage.
• Aftercare Advice: The therapist may provide tips on stretching or other techniques to help maintain the benefits of the massage.

Overall, a Swedish massage is designed to be a relaxing and therapeutic experience, tailored to your specific needs and preferences.
