Knowing How To Do A Back Massage Raleigh

By Anita Ortega


Whenever people would stress out their body because of work or just moving around too much, the body part that will be most affected would actually be the back which would contain the spine. Now if a person moves around a lot like rushing to work or is simply stressed out all the time, the muscles in his back will really take it bad. Now probably one of the best ways to treat a really bad back is to have a good back massage Raleigh.

Now just like any massage, the one massaging and the one receiving must position themselves before doing anything. So the very first thing to do would be to ask the receiver to lie down on his chest area and to relax all his muscles. From there, the one massaging will kneel beside the one receiving and start with the session.

In order to start of, one has to first set the back of the receiver properly so that it will not be so stiff. So in order to do this, he has to first put his hand on the lower neck of the receiver and also on the base of the spine which is located right above the buttocks. After that, he should rub those areas for a while and then let go.

After doing that little warm up, one may now put some oil on the body of the receiver and start with everything. Now the very first place to start would be the area that is just above the bottom which is somewhere in the gut or stomach area. Now the one massaging has to use his whole hands to massage that part with the fingers pointing upward.

Now slowly go to the area where the rib cage is located however, do not massage the rib cage. The place to handle would be the part of the back that is surrounding the spinal cord in that area. It is better to use just the two thumbs to rub that area otherwise one might accidentally hit the rib cage.

Once that part is done, it is now time to hit the upper back which is the rather harder part to handle. Now for this part, one would have to use his thumbs all the time because he has to precisely hit certain points in the body. He has to make sure to apply the right amount of pressure which is not too weak nor too strong.

From there, he may now go to the shoulder area. Now one should stay in the shoulder area rather longer than the other parts because this is where all the stress is located. If one would feel that there is a tight muscle lump on the shoulders of the receiver, he should work on loosening those lumps as they are muscle cramps.

Now the last part of this process would be massaging the neck area. Now this produces more of a relaxing effect on the receiver as the neck has nerves that would induce relaxation. From there, quickly rub all parts of the back and finish up.
