Series Summary

Massage therapy is a practice with a multiplicity of benefits. Whether it’s a quick rubdown or a full-body treatment, the human touch has practical applications for promoting both physical and emotional well-being. The basic idea behind massage is the use of motion, pressure, tension and vibration on certain areas of the body, localized around muscles or joints in pain or under stress. This allows a release of tension and a return to a homeostatic condition. Therefore, massage is very important for general stress relief, pain management, encouraging physical and emotional healing and improving circulation.

In this free instructional video series, our expert will show you what to expect when you go for your first massage. She’ll guide you through the process, from the time you step into the day spa to what you should look for before you get started and all the way through the massage itself to the conclusion of the session.
