Our physiotherapist and osteopath in Digbeth offer deep tissue and therapeutic massage, as well as prenatal massage. Massage is a sort of manual therapy that concentrates on the muscular system of the body. It has been demonstrated to help relieve stress and anxiety symptoms, as well as tension generated by tight muscles and stiff joints. It’s a forceful but effective method for reducing symptoms associated with sports injuries and postural issues, as well as improving circulation and skeletal system integrity. Stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol are released, which raise your heart rate and blood sugar. These primitive reactions were designed to assist humans in surviving. Physical signs of chronic stress include headaches, stomachaches, high blood pressure, chest pain, insomnia, wrath, drug and alcohol misuse, and depression, to name a few. According to specialists, stress is estimated to be responsible for 90 percent or more of sickness. High amounts of cortisol and adrenaline have been related to heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. High levels of stress hasten the ageing process both within and externally. While it may be impossible to totally eliminate stress and concern, massage may certainly help with stress management. During a massage, stress hormones are lowered and endorphins, or “feel good” hormones, are increased. Endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine levels rise, resulting in a calm, relaxed feeling that makes chronic and acute stress far more manageable. Simply lowering your stress levels might improve your energy and attitude. Lowering cortisol and adrenaline levels can help you relax and recover, perhaps improving your health and decreasing your risk of sickness. Regular massage can assist to control blood pressure, lowering the risk of heart attack, kidney failure, and stroke. According to recent studies, massage has been shown to help cancer patients lessen pain and nausea associated with chemotherapy, as well as improve their emotional state.

Deep Tissue Massage in Digbeth, Edgbaston & Sheldon

What is deep tissue massage?

Deep tissue massage is a type of massage that focuses on realigning muscles and connective tissue in the body’s deepest layers. It is particularly good for tense and restricted areas, such as stiff necks, low back tightness, and hurting shoulders. Traditional massage strokes are used, but they are slower and the pressure is deeper, focusing on areas of tension and pain.

How does deep tissue massage work?

During this session, our massage therapist in Digbeth will give you a full rhythmic massage with extra firm pressure applied to any difficulty spots. This is a highly personalised massage in Edgbaston aimed at healing and releasing muscle tension. It also increases circulation and lowers heart rate and blood pressure while flushing toxins from the body and stimulating the immune system. Physiotherapists in Sheldon are trained to recognise muscular weakness and treat conditions like whiplash and back pain. To break up any adhesion tissue, slow strokes and deep finger, hand, and forearm pressure on tight areas are employed, either across or following the fibres of the muscles, fascia, and tendons.

Pregnancy Massage in Digbeth, Edgbaston & Sheldon

Massage therapy during pregnancy might help a woman feel less worried and physically uncomfortable as her due date approaches. In addition to alleviating specific aches and pains in muscles and joints, massage can serve as a general tonic and increase the expecting mother’s body awareness. Treatment can help reduce swelling in the arms and legs, as well as relieve back discomfort, when other pain management options are restricted.

Benefits of Pregnancy Massage

Massage therapy during pregnancy has been shown to reduce tension, reduce swelling in the arms and legs, and relieve muscle and joint aches and pains, among other benefits. Physical impediments to pregnancy that can be treated include edoema, foot, leg, or hand discomforts, and pain in the lower back, pelvis, or hips. Swedish massage improves cardiac function, placental and mammary growth, and cellular respiration, all of which are beneficial during pregnancy. It can also aid with edoema and excessive blood pressure, as well as sympathetic nervous system sedation. Deep tissue, trigger point therapy, and active and passive movements release tension in weight-bearing joints, muscles, and fascial tissues, which helps to relieve neck and back discomfort as well as uterine ligament strain.
