The feeling of tingling or numbness, swelling, pain, and discomfort are all signs that you may lack healthy blood flow. Left untreated, lack of circulation can lead to more severe health complications. If you think you are experiencing these symptoms, odds are you have been yearning for a quiet, soothing massage to relieve some of your discomfort and trouble areas. Even better than a spa massage, a massage chair that is convenient to use in the comfort of your home will help relieve your aches and pains and make you feel better than ever imagined. The best part is that you never have to set foot outside the house for a blissful and relaxing massage. Today massage chairs have many features that will provide head-to-toe pain relief while drastically boosting circulation and helping improve your overall health.
The technology found on many massage chairs of today can provide life-like massage therapy without ever setting foot outside your home. Massage chairs offer techniques like kneading, tapping, rolling, and pressing. Motions performed to areas of the body such as the arms, legs, and back will help release muscle tension and fascia release to loosen the body and relieve pain.
Massage chairs will provide holistic benefits of naturally boosting blood flow by coaxing stale blood out and away from muscles, allowing new blood to nourish the areas that need it.
Fresh blood flow will re-enter tired and tense muscles to restore nutrients, distribute beneficial endorphins, and loosen fascia.
The fascia is a casing of connective tissue mainly made up of collagen, elastin, plus (HA) Hyaluronic Acid, and nerves that provide structure by surrounding nearly everything in our body. The fascia contains nearly 1/3 of the fluid in our bodies and plays an active role in serving as a protective and structural barrier for each organ, blood vessel, bone, muscle, and nerve fiber within us. Pain is sometimes thought to be caused by muscle tension but can result from the restricted fascia. It is difficult to determine whether your pain is strictly muscle, fascia related, or both. But, when fascia is restricted, the tissue tightens around the muscle or other organ. The result is limited mobility and flexibility and can cause muscle knots, tension, and even debilitating pain. Restoring beneficial nutrients through boosted circulation and fascia release will offer the body pain relief, flexibility, and vitality.
The advanced technology and mechanics of today’s massage chairs can help to conveniently and effectively manage or treat pre-existing conditions related to circulation issues.
Circulation disorders are commonly a cause of restricted arteries or build-up of plaque within them. Often, this can stem from diabetes, being overweight, smoking, blood clots, leading an inactive lifestyle, or an unhealthy diet with little nutrition.
Experiencing blood clots can be very painful and provoke circulation problems. The clot traveling to other parts of the body other than the vessels can cause life-threatening medical issues like heart attack, stroke, or embolism.
This disorder causes narrowing of the small blood vessels, affecting approximately 5 percent of people in the United States. Depending on the type or stage of Raynaud’s disease, there are underlying medical conditions with symptoms that worsen over time. Indications of Raynauds include pain or cold feeling in the extremities, with numbness and tingling. Massage therapy can help manage pain and treat discomforts of circulation abnormalities.
Signs that you have circulation problems may not be fully transparent at first. Whether you are facing symptoms or not, massage therapy can help promote proper blood flow and address the common signs of poor circulation.
