"Hello, my name is Rebecca Herrick I'm here at Everything Peaceful in Wilmington, North Carolina to discuss what relaxation massage is. And as it sounds relaxation massage is somewhere is a technique or a group of techniques where you are aiming to destress the person. About seventy five percent of all health issues can be linked to stress intention. So in a relaxation massage, you're really looking to help the client release that stress and tension through quiet, gentle massage techniques. Nice and light. You're not going to really be focusing on any muscle knots or adhesions beyond just superficially you'll focus, you'll have the room set in very nice and dark and relaxing music going as close to music with a higher tempo. And basically just focusing on soothing the client and bringing them into that alpha state or that relaxed state where their brain wave activity is slower and things of that nature. And that's what a relaxation massage will be."
