Massage Oil
Table of contents
Massage oil is an indispensable "lubricant" during a massage, allowing the masseuse's hands to glide smoothly, reducing skin friction, while also moisturizing the skin and enhancing the therapeutic effect. The following is a detailed explanation in Traditional Chinese.Functions, types, benefits and key points for selection:
1. Lubrication (most basic function)
- Reduce friction: A smooth film is formed between the masseur's hands and the recipient's skin to avoid excessive friction that could cause discomfort, redness, or pain.
- Smooth technique: This allows various massage techniques such as pushing, kneading, pressing, and squeezing to be performed smoothly, enabling the force to penetrate deeper tissues more effectively.
2. Moisturize and nourish the skin
- Deeply moisturizes: High-quality massage oils are typically rich in natural oils and nutrients, which can penetrate the skin to provide hydration and moisturization, improving dry and rough skin.
- Enhance flexibility: Long-term use helps maintain skin elasticity and radiance.
3. Enhance therapeutic effects (functional effects)
- Essential oil carrier: Massage oils are "base oils" or "carrier oils" that dilute and hold therapeutic "essential oils." Through massage, the active ingredients in the essential oils can be absorbed through the skin, and through inhalation, they produce psychological and physiological benefits.
- Targeted improvements: Depending on the properties of the added essential oil or carrier oil, different effects can be achieved, for example:
- Relax and soothe: Lavender and chamomile essential oils.
- Relieve muscle soreness: Wintergreen and peppermint essential oils.
- Promote circulation: Rosemary and grapefruit essential oils.
- Boost morale: Sweet orange and lemon essential oils.
4. Promotes relaxation
- Soothe the soul: The warm oil and the natural aroma of the plants can trigger a relaxation response in the brain through the sense of smell, reducing anxiety and stress.
- Sense of ritual: The process of applying massage oil itself has a therapeutic ritualistic feel, which helps the person receiving the massage to enter a relaxed state.
