FloAdvisor #7: Jet Lag massage

The first day of your vacation or business trip will be a nightmare, you are sleepy and suffering the symptoms of getting used to a new time zone, in the following lines of this post I will tell you how you can overcome the effects of jet lag with a massage

A long trip by plane, boat or train can generates a tension in your skin that is reflected in liquid retention, therefore, your feet and ankles will get an inflammation, if in addition to this, the time zone change is added, then you will feel unwell, and that it is not the state you hope to have when you are on vacation.

In general, this skin tension can last between 2 and 3 days, nobody wants to lose 2 or 3 days of their trips by jet lagging, so I am gonna tell you how a massage can help you accelerate your recovery

How can massage help for jet lag?

It is not a unique technique, but in most cases it consists of a combination of sports massage, circular movements and lymphatic drainage.

It can be done in different ways, one of them is to start with pressure on the feet and up the legs to the groin, where the lymph nodes are, to activate the lymphatic system.

The therapist must also activate the circulation of the upper body, working on shoulders and arms, which are also affected by the trip.

What else can be done to help diminish the symptoms of jet lag?

It may seem strange to receive a massage when arriving at your destination, but the true is it will be an antidote to overcome the sleep and fatigue affections generated by jet lag.

Hot stone massage helps to activate the lymphatic system and improves the quality of sleep, in addition to reducing the sensation of stress that our body experienced after a long trip.

In many occasions the trip lowers the defenses and people get a cold or flu, in which case a massage with aromatherapy and vaporizations helps to improve this condition.

Oriental massages based on Traditional Chinese Medicine such as #Shiatsu and #TuiNA, will help you sleep and feel clearer, as they use the pressure in specific points of your body releasing the obstructed energy.
