How Often Should You Get a Massage?

There are many reasons why we visit the Spa, but we know that the relaxing feeling we get after a good massage is a powerful enough motive to come back as often as we want.

The frequency with which you should get a massage will depend on factors, such as your physical and emotional state, your stress levels, the amount of pain you may have, or the condition you want to treat.

Different Kinds of massages have a specific purpose, depending on this and the results you want to obtain with the massage, the frequency of the massages will be more consecutive, or less frequent.

If you feel good and don’t have any specific ailment to treat, the recommended minimum frequency is once a month.

How often should I get a massage for relaxation?

When you are under moderate stress, you should get a massage 1-2 times a month, or 2 times per month. This can help reduce stress symptoms and promote overall health.

How often should I get a massage for built-up tension?

Generally, people with stressful occupations accumulate a lot of tension in their tissue, so they should get massages more frequently. Weekly massages would be ideal.

How often should I get a massage for pain management?

People with severe or chronic pain should receive 1-3 massage sessions per week. Depending on the bodies’ response to the massage, and if the pain was reduced, the frequency of the massage therapy can be reduced to once a week.

Signs that it might be time to get a massage

You are training hard

When you exercise hard, your body is physically challenged, and your muscles might accumulate tension, exhaustion, and be prone to a higher risk of injury. Prevent these with massage sessions.

You notice pain

Whether it is in your neck, shoulder, back, or feet, that pain is telling you that something is wrong. Massage can help realign the muscles and reduce soreness.

Your sleep isn’t good

Poor sleep or lack of it is a clear sign that your body needs to relax. Massages promote good quality sleep.

You lack full range mobility

If you cannot lift your arm completely, or you have a hard time moving your neck, you need to get a Therapeutic Massage. Massages promote elasticity and help relieve muscle tension.

Something is stressing you out

Massages have shown to reduce levels of stress hormones and boost levels of endorphins, which make you feel happy and relaxed.

You are having constant headaches

In case you didn’t know, the built-up tension around your neck and shoulders can cause headaches. Getting regular massages can help improve posture and help eliminate the pain and headaches.

Listen to your body, and run to your massage therapist as soon as you think is needed. Now that you know when and how often to get a massage, all you have to do is make your appointment at Clinical Massage & Spa Aruba.

I. What is a Lymphatic Drainage?

It's essential to have a good understanding of what the lymphatic system is and what it does. It’s a complex network of vessels and tissues that work together to remove waste and toxins from the body, regulate fluid balance, and support the immune system.

But wait, there’s more! It plays a critical role in maintaining the health and functioning of many other systems in the body. The lymphatic vessels are responsible for carrying lymph, a clear fluid that contains white blood cells and other immune system components, throughout the body. The lymph nodes, located at various points along the lymphatic vessels, act as filters, trapping bacteria, viruses, and other harmful substances, and allowing the immune system to destroy them.

If you're considering a lymphatic drainage session, you may wonder what to expect during the massage.

Depending on your specific health concerns, the massage can focus on particular areas of the body where lymphatic congestion is an issue, such as the legs or arms.

Lymphatic drainage is a massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system to promote the movement of lymph fluid throughout the body. This technique uses gentle, rhythmic strokes to push the lymph toward the lymph nodes, which can be filtered and processed more efficiently.

Looking for a lymphatic drainage experience like no other? Clinical Massage Aruba & Spa offers the best one to meet your health needs.

Hang tight and learn about the benefits of this treatment.
