Massage Therapy | SeaMist MedSpa in Rhode Island

Massage

Massage manipulates soft tissues in the body to promote relaxation, reduce pain, and improve overall well-being. Using various techniques, a trained therapist applies pressure and movement to muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia during a massage session. These techniques include kneading, rubbing, tapping, and applying pressure to specific areas. Massage can address issues in many body parts, including the back, neck, shoulders, arms, legs, and feet. It can help alleviate tension, improve circulation, and enhance flexibility.

Massage is suitable for individuals of all ages and can benefit those experiencing stress, muscle tension, or chronic pain. Results are often felt immediately after a session, with many people reporting reduced pain and increased relaxation. Depending on the individual and the frequency of treatments, the effects of massage can last for several days to weeks.

Massage Menu

Swedish Massage (60 or 90 min)

Swedish massage can relax the body, improve circulation, and increase flexibility. It uses long, gliding strokes to rub muscles, promoting overall relaxation and potentially increasing oxygen levels in the blood. This technique is available in 60 or 90-minute sessions.

Deep Tissue Massage (60 min)

By improving circulation, reducing minor aches and pains, increasing range of motion, and decreasing inflammation. Additionally, it can help with anxiety relief and potentially benefit digestion and respiratory function. Consult your massage therapist to determine if this type suits your needs.

Reflexology (60 min)

Reflexology focuses on specific pressure points to alleviate pain and tension. This technique can help reduce stress throughout the body and improve sleep quality. It targets particular areas to promote overall relaxation and well-being.

Trigger Point Massage (60 min)

Trigger Point massage uses alternating pressure cycles to release tension in constricted muscles. The therapist works with you to identify the source and location of discomfort and applies appropriate pressure. Multiple sessions may be necessary for ongoing pain management.

Lymphatic Massage (60 min)

Lymphatic Drainage Massage gently encourages the movement of lymph fluids around the body. This technique can improve circulation in the lymphatic system, which plays an important role in immune defense. It may help manage swelling, particularly in the arms and legs, and benefit those with lymphedema symptoms.

Signature Massage (60 min)

The Signature Massage combines Swedish, Deep Tissue, and Trigger Point techniques. It uses deep, slow strokes and stretching on the back and upper body to address aches and tightness. The therapist then applies medium pressure to areas of tension, aiming to restore comfort and reduce inflammation while increasing blood flow.

Benefits of massage

Massage is generally suitable for most people. Good candidates include those experiencing muscle tension, stress, or chronic pain, as well as anyone looking to improve their well-being. However, people with certain medical conditions, recent injuries, or during pregnancy should consult their healthcare provider before getting a massage.
Many people feel the benefits of massage immediately after their session. You may immediately notice reduced muscle tension, improved relaxation, and decreased pain. Some effects, like improved sleep or reduced stress levels, may become more apparent in the days following your massage.
The duration of massage results varies from person to person. Some people may feel the effects for a few days, while others may experience benefits for several weeks. Regular massage sessions help maintain and extend the positive impact over time.
There is typically no downtime required after a massage. Some people may experience mild soreness or tenderness in the treated areas for a day or two, which is normal. Drinking plenty of water and taking it easy for the rest of the day after your massage can help minimize any possible side effects.
Before your massage, stay hydrated and avoid heavy meals. Wear comfortable clothing that’s easy to remove. After your massage, hydrate well to flush out toxins released during the treatment. Avoid strenuous activities and try to relax for the rest of the day to maximize the benefits of your massage.
You’ll typically lie on a comfortable table in a quiet room during a massage treatment. A massage therapist uses different techniques to work on different areas of your body, adjusting pressure based on your preferences. You may be asked to change positions during the session to access different muscle groups. The therapist will ensure your comfort and privacy throughout the massage.
