Benefits of Massage

After exercise recovery often requires more than just physical repair. Working out can be exhausting. If you are struggling to lose weight, you might be under self-inflicted pressure to lose the weight faster or to exercise more. If you're competing in a sports event or training for a marathon, pressures can mount that are beyond just physical soreness and pain. Not achieving goals or suffering from injuries can be psychologically challenging. At Ficus Spa Kanchanaburi we recognize all the above and understand that a massage has profound psychological benefits.Many visitors visit Kanchanaburi  for regular outdoor events ranging from golfing to trekking, mountain biking as well as participating in various extreme trial events. They visit us at FicusSpa Kanchanaburi after these a weekend of active activity to heal and help mitigate damage  from excessive muscle strain. Our customers know that massage promotes both physical and mental relaxation, but deep tissue massage delivered by a skilled professional also has a wide range of other important benefits including:Increased range of motion and flexibility. Our Deep tissue massage at FicusSpa Kanchanburi, releases stiff muscles and increases circulation to stressed tissue, loosening and relaxing the tissues so that they can extend through their full range of motion. Having flexibility and full range of motion in our muscles decreases the chance that we will pull or strain a muscle, which can be a long-term injury.Improved postureStressed muscles can become tight in certain areas causing the body to be out of alignment, which can result in poor posture. By releasing stiff muscles, our Thai massage at Ficus Spa Kanchanaburi can aid in improved posture, which will dramatically improve sports performance. It will also encourage natural alignment of the spine and kinetic chain, resulting in fewer injuries and imbalances.Promote healthy tissueAn all-time favorite of our guests at FicusSpa Kanchanaburi  is our Warm oil massage which greatly increases the health of soft tissue by increasing blood flow and lymphatic fluid to stressed tissues, promoting faster muscle recovery. Muscle repair and recovery is directly related to circulation of blood to the tissue – the more blood flowing to the tissue the faster it heals. By increasing circulation, massage dramatically speeds recovery time. Improved mental focusMassage aids in mental relaxation, which can improve your emotional outlook and focus. Any athlete will tell you that mental clarity and emotional balance is nearly as important as strength and stamina. Regular massage will help relax your mind and prepare it for physical challenges.Regular massage has been known to decrease depression, elevate the mood, reduce anxiety, calm the mind and improve sleep. Some or all of these factors may play a role in after exercise recovery. Depression can cut into motivation and make it difficult to stay on top of a workout regimen. High levels of stress sometimes lead to overeating and avoidance of exercise. The inability to get a good night's sleep causes some people to skip their workouts altogether. The relaxation effects of massage are a good remedy for all of these problems. Visit us at Ficus Spa Kanchanaburi for a weekly massageand let us help you in relaxing the muscle tissues and assist with muscle stretching. Massage will also help to elevate your mood so that you're ready and motivated to return to your workout regimen.
