Principle and technique of chiromassage

There are many methods of influencing the human body for the purpose of therapy. One of them is a kind of massage effect with a pronounced therapeutic effect - the so-called chiromassage. It is often called Spanish, since it is believed that this method was first introduced in Spain about 100 years ago. But, judging by the preserved historical documents, the technique of chiromassage is rooted in a deeper past - Ancient Greece, China, India. Let's look at the principle and technique of chiromassage.

The principle of chiromassage is the use not only of the palms, but also of the various parts of the hands. This is the main thing that unites the various techniques of conducting chiromassage with each other in different countries.

The technique of this massage practices the use not only of the palms, but also of the fingers, elbows, forearms, palm and back surfaces of the wrist, the rib of the palm. The highly skilled masseur is so well-versed in the technique of combining the impact on the patient with different parts of the hands that the body of this patient is in a state of increased sensitivity to touch. Since a person does not have time to "get used to" the movements of the master, the maximum therapeutic effect is achieved due to the constantly changing intensity, area and nature of the massage by the masseur on his body.

The work of an experienced and highly professional masseur invariably attracts attention. Sometimes his movements can be compared with the magical passes of some ancient and mighty wizard who performs the only known to him magical ritual. At another time you can see in it a sculptor, who is tremblingly, but confidently working on creating another unique sculpture. As a result, these two comparisons quite clearly characterize the work of the chiromassage, because the session of such a massage does indeed reincarnate the patient.

Conducted sessions of chiromassage are aimed at achieving different goals. With a general massage, the goal is to raise energy and tone the body as a whole. It can also be a therapeutic effect on certain parts of the body in order to restore normal metabolism in a problematic place - the so-called local massage. The effect of normalization of metabolic processes is achieved, due to improved blood supply to tissues, a good outflow of lymph, more complete removal of the products of vital activity of cells, improvement of capillary circulation. All these factors improve the work of organs, contribute to an increase in the activity of these organs, help qualitatively remove decay products from cells and increase oxygen exchange.

The techniques of chiromassage are often used to increase the elasticity of the ligaments and muscles of the body, because it is the chiromassage that quickly removes spasms and eliminates their effects in the form of stagnant phenomena or pain. A withdrawal of spasms contributes to the more effective use of intensive massage or other methods of treatment, such as infusion therapy. Due to these properties, chiromassage is successfully used in the treatment of problems of the musculoskeletal system, inflammatory-degenerative changes, varicose veins and other diseases.

The impact of chiromassage on the skin is most beneficial. Disappear not only dermatological problems, but also increases the elasticity, elasticity of the skin, vascular sprouts disappear, the oval of the face is corrected, wrinkles disappear. The effect of lifting on sites with more flabby skin becomes noticeable. Effects of healing and skin rejuvenation are clearly manifested after several sessions (usually one or two).

Human skin is saturated with a large number of receptors - special nerve endings. Each receptor reacts differently to a certain type of effect. Masters of chiromassage effectively use this feature of the receptors to influence the nervous system and the psyche of the patient. By conducting a session of chiromassage, one can achieve general relaxation of the organism, and vice versa - to tone up and increase its activity. This effect is successfully used to combat the effects of stress, to remove the syndrome of chronic fatigue, with various neuroses and depressions.

But do not get involved in the methods of chiromassage, without consulting your own doctor. In certain cases, chiromassage is directly contraindicated - for example, with various tumors.
