Massage Types & Techniques FAQ

If you have ever experienced the luxurious relaxation that massage therapy can provide, then you know there’s nothing quite like it. A professional masseuse can help even the most stressed and tense individuals and help relieve the pain and discomfort that regular life builds upon muscles, tendons, and pores. The most common massage techniques used today have been passed down for thousands of years. But how does a thirty minute or hour-long massage benefit the body? And how many different methods of massage are there? Here are some of the most common questions we get from our clients about the effectiveness of massage.

What is a Hot Stone Massage? What is Bamboo Therapy?

Similar to the Himalayan salt massage, a hot stone massage uses smooth, heated basalt rocks to loosen specific muscle groups before the relaxing massage. Bamboo therapy utilizes different-sized heated bamboo rods to aid the masseuse in pinpointing points of pain and discomfort.

What Health Benefits can I expect From a Massage?

The primary reason Spa Royale offers many different kinds of massage techniques is because they all focus on different methods of relieving pain, improving skin health and color, and relieving stress. The wonderful thing about massage therapy is that the benefits are both short-term and long-term. Those who have never experienced a massage before can experience immediate relaxation, and those who receive regular massage treatments rarely see such benefits vanish.

What Types of Massage Do You Offer?
Here at Spa Royale in Gainesville, Fl, we practice many different forms of
massage techniques to provide the relief our clients look for from a
professional day spa. All of our clients have their own preferences and favorite
massages, of course. More than that, massages serve different purposes and
provide different health benefits.

Some of the types of massage we perform include:

  • Traditional Swedish massage
  • Himalayan Salt massage
  • Deep tissue massage
  • Hot stone massage
  • Bamboo therapy
  • Body wrap treatment

With a combination of other therapeutic enhancements like aromatherapy, music,
skin exfoliation, cupping, and scalp massage, our treatment options give our
clients a complete solution to discomfort, pain, and stress.

What is a Swedish Massage?
While a Swedish massage sounds sophisticated, in Sweden it’s simply known as a “classic massage.” That’s not to say that a Swedish massage offers no benefits. On the contrary, we recommend a Swedish massage to clients who have never had a massage before.

The long-term benefits of Swedish massages become apparent quite quickly. The pressure of the massage stimulates blood flow through the body. For some, this has relieved common and lasting pain associated with back problems and nervous system conditions.

What Makes a Deep Tissue Massage Different From a Swedish Massage?

The main difference between the two techniques is in their purpose. Where the Swedish massage is meant to induce relaxation with light pressure, a deep tissue massage requires the masseuse to increase the pressure to reach muscle groups that reside beneath muscles and tissue nearer to the surface. The pressure required can be intense and sometimes painful. It is common for a masseuse to use his or her fingers, fists, and even elbows.

Deep tissue massages are recommended for athletes, distance runners, and for those suffering from long-term injuries. We often work with the clients of doctors who have recommended us. We love helping those suffering from debilitating pain find an effective way to relieve their symptoms!

What is a Himalayan Salt Massage?
Himalayan salt is mined in the Punjab region of Pakistan, at the foothills leading the mighty peaks of the Himalayan mountains (that’s right, its name isn’t a marketing gimmick). The salt is easy to identify because of its delicate pink color and the pleasant antimicrobial smell it releases when heated.

The benefits of salt have been studied for hundreds of years. Besides containing a higher concentration of essential minerals, salt is a very effective exfoliant. This allows skin to better retain moisture and reveal a more youthful and smooth appearance. Before the massage itself, polished and heated portions of Himalayan salt are placed in specific places to loosen and relax the muscles needing the most attention.

Many of our clients swear by the Himalayan salt massage because of how relaxed they feel afterwards. You will feel many benefits right away, including deeper sleep, smoother skin, and relief from muscle pain.

What is a Body Wrap?

If you have ever used a face mask to exfoliate and brighten your skin, then you have a partial idea of the purpose of a body wrap. Using a mix of ingredients that include mineral-rich mud, creams, and essential oils, the body mask is applied before covering the mask with warm coverings that allow the body to relax, open pores, and improve your skin’s health.

Naturally, the mask and the warm covering will make you sweat. While it may appear that the body mask has helped you lose a pound or two, the weight loss comes from a loss of water from sweating. Don’t be alarmed, however; just be sure to drink lots of water after the treatment!
