Ease The Symptoms Of Lower Back Pain With Massage

For most of us, the answer is probably 'yes', since massage is non-invasive and considered very low risk for most people. In addition to physical benefits, certain types of massage have been shown to help psychologically via relaxation and increased production of 'feel good' chemicals that the body naturally produces (endorphins) - helpful for people with both acute back problems and chronic back pain. This newsletter describes why massage may be right for you.

Massage To Help Muscle Strain

Most episodes of acute lower back pain are caused by muscle strain, such as from lifting a heavy object, a sudden movement or a fall. The low back pain can be very severe and last for several hours, several days or even a few weeks. When back muscles are strained or torn, the area around the muscles can become inflamed. With inflammation, the muscles in the back can spasm and cause both severe lower back pain and difficulty moving. The large upper back muscles are also prone to irritation, either due to de-conditioning (lack of strength) or overuse injuries (such as repetitive motions).

Upper back pain may also be due to a specific event, such as a muscle strain, sports injury, or auto accident. Massage can help work out the spasm/irritation and improve range of motion. Read more in Back muscles and low back pain and Causes of upper back pain.

Massage To Help Osteoarthritis Of The Spine

Spinal arthritis is the breakdown of the cartilage between the aligning facet joints in the back portion of the spine. The facet joints become inflamed and progressive joint degeneration creates more frictional pain as bone rubs on bone. Therapeutic massage can help reduce osteoarthritis pain by improving circulation and reducing stress and muscle tension. However, it is important to find a professional who is specifically trained in treating people with arthritis.

Massage To Help Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia can affect people differently but is usually characterised by pain, stiffness, fatigue and/or non-restorative sleep. The patient typically feels both widespread pain and pain in specific "tender points" as evidenced by physical examination. Massage can target both the tender points and the more broadly distributed pain and stiffness.

Massage To Help Sciatica

When it comes to sciatica, massage can help in two ways. Massage’s main benefit is soothing tense muscles. When your muscles are tense, they can put more pressure on your nerves, including your sciatic nerve. Massaging these tense muscles may help to reduce pressure on your sciatic nerve.

Do You Offer The Best Massage Near Me?

A relaxing back massage stimulates the production of endorphins, dopamine and serotonin, chemicals that make the body feel good, according to Beth Mueller, RMT, in her article “Massage Therapy for Lower Back Pain” on the Spine Health website. This helps manage pain and may allow you to reduce the number of painkillers you take. A back massage can help decrease pain in the lower back, back massage may also help prevent anxiety and depression.
