Massage Therapy
Treatment Massage Therapy – ETHOS HEALTH CARE
Massage therapy is the most common form of massage. It involves the use of fingers, the thumb, the elbows and even the feet to put pressure on designated parts of the body. The professional masseur, or the person who does the massage, will add massage oils, lotions or creams to your body to create soothing contact to the skin during the massage session. There are different ways in which someone can experience massage therapy. They can be in a massage chair or even lying on the floor where a mat is provided. A typical massage therapy session is between 40 and 90 minutes. Most people feel calm and relaxed after a treatment. Occasionally, people experience mild temporary aching for a day.
