Massagepraxis Roth (Cham)

TREATMENT METHODS Classical massage Classical massage is probably the best known form of therapy in the repertoire of a medical masseur. The hands apply pressure and tension to the tissues and muscles. The goal is to increase blood flow (hyperemia) to the tissues. This leads to a change in muscle tension (muscle tone) and can thus relieve tension and pain. Classical massage also affects metabolism and blood circulation, and thus the whole organism. Another remarkable aspect is the deep relaxation and tranquility that can be achieved through a classical massage. It is a blessing for body, mind and soul.

Manual lymphatic drainage and compression The lymphatic system is responsible for the removal of tissue fluid, called lymphatic load. If this evacuation does not function adequately, tissue blockage (edema) can occur. This can be due to a congenital malposition of the lymphatic vessels (the lymphatic vessels are not properly developed or there are too few lymphatic vessels) and thus occur as primary lymphedema. However, secondary lymphedema is much more common, where the lymphatic vessels have been injured, for example in the course of cancer treatment (by removal of lymph nodes, by radiation, etc.) and removal is therefore limited. Lymphatic drainage is stimulated by means of manual lymphatic drainage. Disturbed drains can be bypassed and new drainage pathways can be activated and cleared. In the context of complex physical decongestive therapy (CPD), subsequent compression of the area is a no less important measure. Foot reflexology - treatment of the reflex zones on the foot The manual treatment of the reflex zones on the foot leads to an increased blood circulation in the respective reference area. A variety of organ diseases can be treated, such as digestive problems, hormonal imbalances and much more. Reflexology has a harmonizing effect on the whole body. Connective tissue massage The connective tissue massage is a reflex zone therapy. By manually influencing the body covering, especially the skin and subcutaneous tissue, it acts on the organs and the entire musculoskeletal system through vegetative pathways. The blood circulation is stimulated and a vegetative harmonization is aimed at.
