Foot Reflexology massage can be a deeply relaxing and therapeutic modality for those suffering from plantar fasciitis, ankle injuries or even everyday work and play. At Massage Envy, your massage therapist will apply traditional Swedish and sports massage techniques to the foot, calf and upper leg. This will not only help relieve toe pain, ankle pain, plantar fasciitis and common forms of arthritis, but can also decrease stress and anxiety in the entire body. In addition, a variety of stretches can be beneficial. With pain and sensitivity in the foot, heel and calf areas, be sure to communicate your pain levels with your massage therapist during your treatment. It is also a good idea to rest after receiving the reflexology massage.

Thai Massage
“Nuat phaen boran” which accurately translates as ancient massage and traditional massage is also known now as Thai massage, Thai ancient massage, ancient massage, traditional Thai massage, Thai yoga massage, yoga massage, Thai classical massage, Thai bodywork, passive yoga, or assisted yoga.

In Thai Massage the recipient is put into many yoga-like positions during the course of the massage. In the northern style there are a lot of stretching movements unlike the southern style where pressure is emphasized. It was believed that the massage art was brought over to Thailand by Dr Shivago K., a contemporary of Buddha almost about 2500 years ago.

The massage recipient changes into pajamas and lies on a mat or firm mattress on the floor. The therapist leans on the recipient’s body using hands and forearms to apply firm rhythmic pressure to almost every part of the taker’s body. The massage generally follows the SEN lines on the body-somewhat analogous to Chinese Acupuncture Meridians. In some gestures, legs and feet of the giver are used to fixate the body or limbs of the recipient. In other gestures, hands fixate the body, while the feet do the massaging action. Usually no oil is applied. A full course of Thai massage typically lasts two hours or more, and includes pulling fingers, toes, ears etc., cracking the knuckles, walking on the recipient’s back, arching the recipient’s back in a rolling action and more poses.

Trigger Point
Trigger points are highly irritated bands of tissue located in or along a muscle. The small point of irritation can cause tightness throughout the entire muscle and referred pain throughout the entire body.



The symptoms of trigger points can vary from local discomfort in the muscle, to headaches, numbness, tingling, and restricted mobility. Sometimes trigger points can even mimic or be one of the causes of repetitive stress injuries. Trigger point massage can be extremely effective at relieving these symptoms.

Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is a very effective hands-on technique that provides sustained pressure into myofascial restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. The theory of Myofascial Release requires an understanding of the fascial system (or connective tissue). The fascia is a specialized system of the body that has an appearance similar to a spider’s web or a sweater.



Fascia is very densely woven, covering and interpenetrating every muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein as well as all of our internal organs including the heart, lungs, brain and spinal cord. The most interesting aspect of the fascial system is that it is not just a system of separate coverings. It is actually one structure that exists from head to foot without interruption. In this way you can begin to see that each part of the entire body is connected to every other part by the fascia, like the yarn in a sweater.

Can Massage Therapy Help Improve Your Health?

People who treat themselves to an occasional massage often describe feeling deeply relaxed and rejuvenated afterward. But allowing a professionally trained massage therapist to manipulate your tissue and muscles can be more than just an enjoyable hour of pampering. Massage therapy offers potential health dividends that can extend beyond the session
Some benefits are obvious, like less pain or stiffness in your hips, back, neck and shoulders. Maybe an injury heals faster, or a headache goes away. But what’s going on beneath the surface?
Massage therapy could improve your immune system and enhance blood and lymph functions to fight infections. It may even help restore muscle tone lost due to long-term bed rest and ease anxiety, depression and stress.
While many people find it beneficial for their overall wellness, massage therapy is also used to complement standard treatments for a range of medical conditions. In fact, a survey conducted by the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) found that 41 percent of respondents received a massage for medical reasons, such as pain, stiffness, spasms or injury recovery. Around 90 percent considered the hands-on manipulation good for their overall health and wellness.
Now that you know a few of its potential health benefits, let’s look at the most common types of this popular therapy, each targeting different results.
SWEDISH massage uses long, gliding strokes, kneading, circular movements and tapping to relax and energize. This can lead to improved circulation, increased flexibility and relief from chest congestion, headaches and muscular or digestive disorders.
DEEP TISSUE massage targets layers of muscle and tissue with slow, intense pressure and more forceful strokes. Deep massage can help relieve pain, loosen connective tissue and repair muscle damage from injuries or overuse.
SPORTS massage combines techniques of Swedish and deep-tissue massage to release muscle tension and help prevent sports injuries.
TRIGGER POINTS massage releases tight muscle fibers from injuries or overuse and can relieve respiratory disorders such as sinus pressure.
ACUPRESSURE applies deep finger pressure firmly on specific areas called acupoints to send healing signals to other parts of the body. Acupressure can help minimize migraine and other headaches, neck pain, nausea, back pain, anxiety, insomnia and depression, according to the UCLA Center for East-West Medicine.

Миофасциальный массаж .(MFT)

Техника массажа, которая воздействует не на мышцы, а на фасции, окружающие мышцы (оболочки из соединительной ткани, которые образуют футляры для мышц). Особенность метода заключается в том, что можно добиться полного расслабления одной или группы мышц, которые находятся в состоянии спазма (зажима, напряжения). Поверхностные или подкожные фасции располагаются под слоем подкожного, жира и именно на них воздействует массаж.

Предназначение массажа — избавить человека от миофасциального болевого синдрома , который проявляется спазмом мышц. Из-за слишком большой нагрузки в мышечной ткани возникает сильное напряжение и активизируются триггерные точки (болезненные уплотнения). Причины возникновения — прямой ушиб мышц или растяжение. Для спортсменов частая причина активизации триггеров — неудачный поворот, бросок, прыжок. Резкие активные движения также пагубно сказываются на неразогретых мышцах. Однако миофасциальный массаж показан не только при травмах — он полезен всем активно тренирующимся людям для более эффективной работы мышц.

Вначале вас прощупают, чтобы определить, где сосредоточено напряжение мышцю Затем это напряжение будет сниматься с помощью специальных движений руками и дополнительных массажных аксессуаров. Проходить такой массаж рекомендуется раз в 3-5 дней. Первый сеанс длится не более 40 минут, чтобы уберечь организм от слишком большого стресса, но, последующие сеансы могут занимать до 90 минут.

Миофасциальный массаж начинается с шеи и переходит к плечам, затем к области позвоночника и, наконец, пояснично-крестцовому отделу. Во время миофасциального массажа происходит давление вертикально по всему периметру мышц (давление осуществляется по обе стороны позвоночника). Следующий прием — разминание: руки массажиста движутся вдоль тела снизу вверх. Это расслабляет и растягивает мышцы.

Глубокое воздействие на фасции и мышцы разрушает спазмаические узлы или расслабляет напряженные мышцы и спайки, образующиеся между мышечнми слоями. Миофасциальный массаж восстанавливает нормальный кровоток и здоровье тканей. Однако его эффект распространяется еще дальше. Например, если делать его регулярно, то у вас улучшится осанка, координация движений, а значит и спортивные достижения, и качество жизни в целом.

Добро пожаловать.
