As in any therapeutic operation, so in Massage, there are indications and contraindications. Therapeutic Massage, in addition to knowledge of various manipulations and techniques, requires knowledge of anatomy , physiology and pathology of the human body. For this reason it should be applied only by professional Physiotherapists, who are the only ones who have the legally guaranteed right to practice Massage, the appropriate education and the corresponding scientific knowledge.

 

Therapeutic massage involves special pressures on points of muscle or myo-peritoneal tension , known as muscle spasm. Many times the patient's pain and other symptoms are of muscular origin . The discovery of Trigger points and then their release is important for a complete cure. It is applied to acute or chronic cases of pain, in any area of the body, dealing with either local or reported pain.
