Myofascial massage is considered an alternative to tightening surgical operations. Consider when a massage is shown and whether it is really effective.
Myofascial massage - what is it?
The procedure is an effect on the deep layers of the skin. The masseur processes 11 myofascial meridians - the so-called anatomical trains. These lines symmetrically pass through the whole body, uniting the disparate, it would seem, parts of the body into a single whole. For example, the posterior surface line extends from the sole to the superciliary arches. Thus, by acting on certain areas, a qualified master is able to positively influence the patient's body condition.
In particular, you can achieve:
- improvement of blood circulation;
- stabilization of the heart rhythm;
- elimination of skin inflammation;
- restoration of skin tone;
- elimination of pain.
Of course, treatment with this kind of manual therapy takes time. In addition, few masters own the technique of myofascial body massage. It should also be remembered that the procedure has contraindications:
- acute infectious processes;
- a large number of papillomas and moles;
- couperose;
- abrasions and cuts;

It is believed that the author of myofascial massage is the German ideologist Rolfe Ide. But its development would be impossible without the doctrine of myofascial meridians, which came with the technique of ancient Chinese deep massage. In any case, a modern procedure based on Eastern wisdom, allows any woman to put herself in order without resorting to the services of plastic surgeons.
