Hand massage, what a great discovery I had last Summer. We use and abuse our hands every day. We clean and scrub, we pick things up, open close doors and type on our computers! We open cans and jars, put shoes on, buckle child's car seats, turn knobs, dials, the list goes on. That can take its toll on hands. -Hand Massage Brea CA
We can use lotion to care for our skin, but what about muscle or joint strain? What about the pain of overuse? Hand massage may be what we've been unknowingly seeking, not only to relieve hand pains and aches, but also to help a long list of problems. General massage is widely spoken of, but hand massage? Is it really worth it. I did my research, found out more!
Massage is the manipulation of superficial layers of muscle and connective tissue. A hand massage will enhance function and promote relaxation and well-being and can help with a host of issues ranging from headache to stomach problems. There are over 250 types of massage, and massage has been used for over 3000 years. The hands have specific pressure points that affect different parts of the body. Your local masseuse will be able to show you a map of the hands and tell you the pressure points and what's affected by each specific one. Both the palm and front of the hand, as well as the finger tips have different pressure points.
For example, pressure point #27 should be twisted to ease tired eyes. Hearing can be enhanced by rubbing and twisting the pressure point #9 . When looking for constipation relief, look no further than pressure point #22 and twist. Try it, it's great. It really is amazing the number of ailments and the relationship to the inner parts of the body. What a great experience I had with my first hand massage. I continue to go frequently for different massages, but the greatest reward is that I am out of pain. I am no longer adding toxins to my body in the form of over the counter pills over and over again. I also have more energy than before, and this was a pleasant surprise to me.
Having had the massage, I felt great. Not only was I out of pain, but I felt I could think more clearly. Having researched general massage, I found out that this is not a figment of my imagination. When a massage is performed, the blood flow is better and this leads to overall well being from brain function to kidney/liver/elimination of waste. I found a local specialist. Check it out, find your local specialist. After this, you'll want to go for a hand massage whether or not you have hand pain/aches/cramps. Just try it. If hand massage is not the one for you, visit your local spa for any sort of massage to cure any number of ailments. There are so many types of massage. Treat yourself, you deserve it - even if you don't, your hands do!
