			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-154" title="History and Types Masage" src="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/History-and-Types-Masage-300x252.png" alt="History and Types Masage" width="300" height="252" />Touching is a basic human experience: touching, hugging, shaking hands and kissing up a fraction of the repertoire of tactile contact has our species. Whether to insult, expressing affection or repression, the sense of touch provides us with a broad form of communication that goes from the deepest recesses of human beings as sexual contact, even the most social or comforting as massage.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For reasons of stress, muscle pain or other discomfort, massage is becoming increasingly popular. From those that cause pain to those who do not even touch the body with the same objective: to feel good.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Without falling into the purely private or its opposite, massage involve different social ranks and their use can be focused to eliminate discomfort left by the extra effort in a sport, back pain or to stimulate your partner sexually.<span id="more-145"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In any case, says <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/category/massage" target="_blank"><strong>the beautician and massage therapist</strong></a> Mafredini Levinin Institute (in Santiago de Chile), Claudia Palacios, massage always involves a transfer of energy to the patient and that &#8220;if the therapist is a negative energy can not be do a good massage. &#8220;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>History of massage</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to some publications<a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/tag/massage" target="_blank"><strong>, the massages come from east </strong></a>and, although not known exactly the time he began to be used, one of the first theories of this technique lies in the year 3,000 BC</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Then, in some Greek texts, including the book &#8220;The Odyssey of Homer, referred to massage as popular practices in the society of the time.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Also, in the Roman Empire, gladiators were massages before and after the fight. Moreover, ordinary citizens flocked to spas and public baths to enjoy the benefits of these techniques.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With the advent of the Middle Ages, public manifestation is lost and reappears in Renaissance Europe (sixteenth century) as a therapeutic technique primarily.<br />
Type</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With a history that came to mankind for so long, massage techniques have been diversified according to the purpose for which they are used or depending on how they are made.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Although, in short, the massages are a set of manual handling on certain body locations, currently distinguish between several types of them. The most commonly used:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Swedish massage: perhaps the most widely used in spas and gyms, the person lies naked on a table with a sheet wrapped only. The massage oils and lotions applied by sliding their hands over the skin, kneading, tapping and shaking to relax strained muscles and joints occur.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Sports Massage:</strong> this variation in depth of the previous movements to increase range of motion and speed of recovery, helping the sore muscles. The specialist uses the palm of your hands to separate and relax muscles, and your fingers to apply impulses that can be painful but free of hassles later.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Shiatsu: </strong>through acupressure, the therapist uses his hands, elbows, knees and feet, as in acupuncture, pressing certain points where it is believed, the body&#8217;s energy flows.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Reflexology: A type of massage much more specific that applies only to the soles of the feet where it is believed, are connected to all other organs of the body.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/tag/massage-techniques" target="_blank"><strong>This technique is based on the body&#8217;s energy </strong></a>can be channeled to heal moods and facilitate the cure of diseases. In this case, massage does not occur through contact but by the laying on of hands to alter the patient&#8217;s energy flow.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the midst of diversity and popularity of the massage, have also appeared on the market of electronic devices that promise to relieve the discomfort in the same way that human hands. Claudia Palacios concludes that the machine does not know the limits of human pain and that, ultimately, people prefer the more personal.</p>
