Medical massage, sports massage, wellness massage and neck trigger point massage in Basel

For loose and deeply relaxed muscles.

Massage in Basel

I offer four different forms of massage, which have different effects and are useful depending on the physical situation or complaint. Medical massage and sports massage work deep into the muscles and tissue structure. A special massage of the neck and shoulder trigger points can relieve persistent pain and gentle wellness massages help to reduce stress. Here I introduce you to the different types of massage.

The medical massage

Medical massage is part of physiotherapy treatment and is carried out according to professional guidelines. It is used, for example, when there are muscle problems due to injuries, illnesses, cramps or misalignments of the musculoskeletal system. The diagnosis is clarified before treatment, as this form of massage requires sound basic knowledge and precise knowledge of the symptoms. Muscle and connective tissue massage has a positive (relaxing) effect on muscle tone. It can relieve painful tension or blockages and also have an effect on nerve and organ functions.

The sports massage

Sports massage is used to improve athletic performance, but also as a preventative measure to protect against injury. It is effective as a training aid before and after competitions. Even those who are fit and in top form push themselves to their physical limits in competition and risk tissue damage. Sports massage intensifies circulation in the lymphatic system and blood circulation, loosens deep muscle and connective tissue and improves mobility. The person being treated actively performs manoeuvers with targeted exercises. Sports massage can be used after sports injuries during convalescence, as it involves the entire movement sequence.

The wellness massage

Many people know that massage is not only good for the body but also for the soul. It can reduce stress and trigger a lasting feeling of well-being, which acts like a protective shield against the stresses and strains of everyday life. A wellness massage stimulates fine nerve plexuses and blood vessels in the skin. It achieves deeply relaxed muscles and good circulation of the entire circulatory system. Massage revitalizes tired people: Restorative relaxation drives away tiredness and exhaustion. Your own body perception also changes after a wellness massage, making you feel physically and mentally more energetic and relaxed again.

The neck trigger point massage

Many people complain of painful tension and stiffness in the neck and shoulder area. Muscular hardening, small knots that can be felt, so-called "triggers", which often cause pain that radiates over a wide area and even tingling in the limbs. Cause can be lack of exercise, stress, incorrect posture or the consequences of an accident, which is why a detailed examination is necessary. The myofascial trigger points in the shoulder and neck area can be felt manually and released using a special massage technique. Pressure is applied to the muscles, the cervical spine is mobilized again and pain relief is achieved.
