What is seated / chair massage? |
|
Chair massage is an effective, scientifically proven way to counteract physical tension and the negative effects of stress.
Unlike traditional massage, which is carried out on a table or on the floor, this massage takes place in a specially designed chair. The chair is tubular and is fitted with cushions; it is easy and fast to assemble and disassemble which makes it easy to transport.
It offers a very comfortable position : the trunk is inclined towards the front and the head and arms are supported. The chair adapts well to pregnant women, to the overweight or to those who are simply uncomfortable in a horizontal position.
Chair massage is done with the patient fully clothed thus avoiding client discomfort or embarrassment. The practitioner will concentrate on different areas made stiff by stress, depending on the client, such as the shoulders, the neck, the arms and even the legs.
Let us point out that, contrary to what one may think, chair massage does not have a soporific effect on the employee but rather is an energizing massage somewhere between a sports massage and a relaxation massage. Different techniques may be used depending on the area being massaged and the desired results; Swedish massage, trigger point techniques, acupressure, shiatsu, an mo tui na, etc.
Conducted in your offices, chair massage offers the busy employee both flexibility and convenience. |

What would prevent an employee from taking advantage of this service? |
|
Chair massage is available to anyone who has no major contra-indication to massage therapy. A short health history form must be filled out even though the treatment lasts only 15 minutes.
This will make the therapist aware of, among other things, fractures, inflammation, skin infection, scarring or serious cases of varicose veins which would normally be observed by the therapist during an oil treatment.
Some counter indications will cause the therapist to alter the treatment, to avoid certain areas or to completely proscribe treatment. Since massage therapy increases the blood flow, patients with fever or high blood pressure are often rejected due to the possibility of aggravating these conditions.
The medical history is necessary in order to protect both the client and the professional. The massage therapist, therefore, reserves the right to refuse treatment at any time, if he judges the treatment to be inappropriate or dangerous to the client. |
