"How to do therapheutic hand massage"

Therapeutic hand massage is a way of relieving stress, tension and common aches and pains.I was  blessed with the gift of laying on of hands  and I have used my gift to relieve certain ache and pains and stress of some people. There is a science to the process of massage healing and you have to know what to do too obtain the most benefits for your patient.  I remove so many cricks for necks and other body pains that I cannot count them all.  my massage therapy has other benefits like putting people to sleep in the process, if you're putting people to sleep ; you know you must be doing some thing right.

I was told by a doctor friend of my that  used my services, have dangerously good hands; and I need to do something positive with them and I took him his word and started giving hand massages to my family , relatives and friends without charging them, even though the doctor would paid me a $ 25.00 fee for a massage of his neck and shoulders for a five minute massage. I even did it for some strangers if they were in a lot of pain, but that just me.  When doing a all over body massage you start form the neck and work your way all the way down to the feet and toes.

In case you don't know a therapeutic hand massage will relieve pain , stress, and tension and calm the person's nerve and relax them to the point of them completely going to sleep. Everyone doesn't know how to massage, so I will give you a therapeutic hand massage lesson for any one needed a healing massage.  Here are the instructions I promised to give you for using massage therapy.

1.Have the person strip down to his or her bottoms, Have them lie down on the bed if you 're giving a full body massage. hands by their side and head to the side. my specialty is praying doing the process and it helps me stay focuses and helps the person I giving the massage too. you can cover the top part of the body with a large towel until you're ready to perform the massage.

2. When doing a massage , you can always tell how much tension and stress the person is carry around with him and her because the muscles in the neck and shoulders will hard as a rock; and before you can even attempt a full body massage you have to relax the muscle before you start you major massage. when doing massages you always use the tips or the balls of your fingers, you start gently massing the neck and shoulder area with your finger tips until you can feel the looseness of the flesh and muscle, then you  can apply more pressure and dig a bit deeper to relieve all the tension in the muscle.  if these instructions are not done correctly, you can end up hurting your patients.

3.Make sure you use the tips of you fingers when softly massaging the outer layers of the shins before you're able to go deeper.  Once you have relieved the tension in the patient 's body, you can now proceed to go deeper into  the muscle of your patient and remove more stress and tension from your patients.

4.When you start your major massage , always start at the neck and work your way ,all the way down deeply and gently down into the muscle. massage the neck, then the back,  and legs  for about 10 minutes  and on to the feet and toes, and when the massage is over you will have a very grateful,content and happy person ; when you finish.

5. If the person need a message to remove a crick for their neck or other body pain, for the crick , they person should sit in a straight back chair with their hands n their laos and their heads hung down toward their chest; then start at the temples of each side of the head and work your way down behind the ears an on to the neck area, losening the tensio that you can feel in the  neck, when the neck muslces are losen' then you start to dig deeper into the neck muscle and massage a while , then have the patient to slowly move their neck back and forth until you finish your massage.  The crick should be  gone by the time the massage is over and their pain becomes a distant memory. remember to use the losening techniqur before each massage in order not to cause pain to your patient.
