Is massage dangerous: Points to consider

[/fusion_title][fusion_text] In our minds, massage is a practice addressed to everyone; that there’s no danger at all and it can only do us good. We think that simply by entering the “Room of miracles”, we will get rid of all our worries andour most rejuvenated self will come out shining. Reality is a bit different though, and just for the mention, not everyone can do massage at all times of their lives. To begin with, the first and most important thing a therapist should do is get the medical history of the person who wants to get a massage. In fact, this should happen before he even makes an appointment, so that the therapist can know if that person is allowed to get one. In general, massage is contraindicated:

• In musculoskeletal problems such as the cervical syndrome, lordosis, kyphosis.

You may think that massage will solve the existing problems but this is not the case. A wrong move can create an even bigger problem for you. What you need to do first is go to an orthopedist, in order togive you clearance on what to do and how to proceed.

• In skin problems such as psoriasis and dermatitis. Many skin diseases are contagious so it would be good for the therapist to know this before taking you on.

Also: If you experience heart problems, high or low blood pressure, thrombosis, varicose veins or varicose veins. If you suffer from allergies which can be aggravated by the essential oils used in some massage types. If you have the flu If you have recently had surgery If you experience inflammation or swelling If you have open wounds If there are fractures or broken body parts If you are suffering from an infection Giota Florou Translated by Katerina Kontolati [/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
