Benefits of Classical Massage
Classical massage works deeper, helping to speed up regeneration, relax muscles, and create a pleasant sense of calm and harmony. It also helps stimulate the lymphatic system, which accelerates the removal of waste and toxins from the body. Classical massage is more recommended for individuals who prefer a dynamic yet slow and smooth massage.

- Application of oil or cream: The massage therapist will apply the oil or cream to the client’s skin, allowing the hands to pass smoothly and reducing friction.

When it is not suitable to go for a massage
- Acute infections: If you have an acute infection, such as the flu, cold, or a skin infection, it is not advisable to go for a massage. It could worsen your existing health issues and spread the infection to the therapist or other clients.
- Bone and joint injuries: If you have a recent bone or joint injury, you should wait until it heals and consult with a doctor before continuing with massages. Massages can cause further damage.
- Fever: If you have a fever, elevated body temperature, or an infectious disease, you should not go for a massage, as it could worsen your symptoms and spread the infection.
- Pregnancy with complications: During pregnancy, you need to be cautious with massages, especially if there are complications. It’s important to consult with your gynecologist regarding massage therapy.
- Cardiovascular issues: If you have serious cardiovascular problems, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, or thrombosis, a massage might have undesirable effects. It is important to inform your therapist about these issues.
- Cancer and chemotherapy: Cancer patients should consult with an oncologist to determine whether a massage is appropriate. Some types of massage may be contraindicated during cancer treatment.
- Recent surgical procedures: After surgery, you should wait for healing and consult with your doctor to see if a massage is safe.
- Allergies to oils or scents: If you have allergies to certain oils or scents, inform your therapist to avoid any unpleasant reactions.
- Mental health conditions: If you have acute mental health conditions, such as severe depression, anxiety, or panic attacks, a massage might cause uncomfortable reactions. Consult with a psychotherapist or psychiatrist about this option.
- Numbness or loss of sensation in the massage area: If you have numbness or loss of sensation in the area where you want the massage, the therapist could unknowingly cause further damage.
Remember that these points are general guidelines. It is always best to consult with your doctor or therapist about your specific health situation before deciding on a massage.
