Chair Massage Las Vegas Techniques

By Lila Bryant


A body rub down plays an important role in helping the body to relax. For an effective chair massage Las Vegas clients will want to make sure that they have with them some important accessories. Some of the items that could be relied on include a head rest and a pillow for the neck. The pillow and the head rest are there to offer support to the neck. When dealing with the issue of clothing, individuals have the option of remaining fully clothed or shedding off some clothing items.

The recipient often gets to decide whether he wants to remain dressed or not. Either way, he must make sure that his hair is not in the way. This is more so for people who happen to have very long hair strands.

The body rub down can begin with the shoulders. For many working class people, the shoulders are usually filled up with lots of tension. This comes about due to hunching in front of a computer all day long. The masseuse should begin at the base of each neck and then knead and squeeze the shoulders gently.

Let the masseuse work his way from the shoulder blades to the side arms. This type of motion should be performed more than once in order to better deal with all the tension. If repeated three or more times, the body will start to feel much better.

Necks are another important part of the human body. For the neck, a masseuse will need to use his thumbs. The thumbs should be moved in a circular motion along the spine sides. Where a recipient requests for it, more pressure can be added to make the rub down more fulfilling.

It will however be important to watch out on where this pressure is exerted. Do not place direct pressure on the neck or the spine. These are very sensitive areas and too much damage may lead to irreparable damage taking place. The area below the hairline is known to have very tense muscles. Pay attention to this area.

In a body, there are very many muscles that are concentrated on the back area. The muscles found here are also quite strong and therefore require more attention and pressure than the rest. The best technique to use here is the percussion technique. It helps to make the tensed muscles more relaxed.

For each new area that is being approached, make sure you begin each technique lightly. You can then build on from there so as to allow ample time for this person to adjust to the pressure changes. Considering that each person has his own tolerance to pressure, ensure you build up on the pressure very lightly.

Rub downs come with very many benefits to an individual. Due to the attention that is paid to muscles, they are able to let go of all tension and anxiety that had built up. This makes a body more relaxed. The built up emotions are also released leaving the body in a relaxed state.

In addition to letting go of all these emotions, another benefit that is enjoyed is increased flexibility. It is important for the body to be flexible at all times. When it becomes flexible, it actually makes it easier for the recipient to sleep better at night. Having a good night sleep is important as it makes it easier to concentrate at work.
