About the Treatment Method
Medical massage (Clinical Massage) is completely different from relaxation massages performed in spas and beauty centers; it is a goal-oriented, healing manual therapy method applied by expert physiotherapists with medical and anatomy training for the purpose of treating a specific musculoskeletal or nervous disease diagnosed by a doctor (or to support physical therapy).
Effects and Application Areas of Medical Massage
The differences between medical massage and ordinary massage, and the healing process.
What is its biggest difference from spa massages?
Spa massages are superficial; they aim to generally relax the whole body and relieve stress. Medical massage, on the other hand, directly focuses on the problematic area; it uses much deeper, sometimes painful but healing and specific clinical techniques to crush fibrositis (muscle knots), open calcified joints, or dissipate edema (lymph).
For which diseases is it prescribed?
It is used as the biggest supporter of physiotherapy, especially in fibromyalgia pains, to relieve severe muscle spasms occurring in lumbar and cervical hernias, in posture disorders, in lymphedema treatment, and to prevent the weakening of muscles in paralyzed patients.
