Following a remedial or relaxation massage, your body benefits from gentle, supportive activities that can enhance recovery and maintain the therapeutic effects.
Three simple practices can make a big difference:
Warm Bath – Warm water can help soothe muscles, encourage circulation, and promote relaxation after massage. It supports the release of residual muscle tension and eases the nervous system.
Short, Slow Walk on Flat Surfaces – Gentle movement helps maintain joint mobility, improves blood flow, and prevents post-session stiffness. Choosing a stable, even surface reduces unnecessary strain.
Increased Water Intake – Hydration supports your body’s natural recovery processes, assists metabolic waste clearance, and helps prevent dehydration that can sometimes follow manual therapy.
These steps can complement your massage results by aiding circulation, promoting relaxation, and supporting tissue health.
These suggestions are general in nature and may not be suitable for all clients, particularly those with certain injuries, medical conditions, or mobility restrictions. Always follow the advice of your therapist or healthcare provider for post-treatment care that suits your individual needs.
