Segmentary massage effect

Reaction system for segmental massage, are local and general. The differences between classical and segmental massage are qualitative rather than qualitative and are particularly irritated around segments. Signs of segmental massage can be divided into local symptoms and general symptoms.

Local symptoms

- Skin temperature rises by as much as ten degrees Celsius, also did not massaged area, and decreases after several hours. It was noted that the lower the starting temperature of the skin, the better its growth after segmental massage.

- Increases blood supply to both the skin and deeper tissues. There is a noticeable reddening of the skin as a symptom of increased blood flow. Improving circulation in the muscles and connective tissues associated with nutrition and the functioning of these tissues (volume of "Classic Massage," the section "Influence of classical massage on the various tissues).

- There is increased mobility of patients with arthritis and increase muscle strength.

General symptoms

- Standardization and stimulate internal organ function (eg, kidney function, intestinal peristalsis, secretion of gastric juice, etc.).

- Increase in vital capacity. Bronchial gland secretion becomes looser and easier to remove.

- There is a considerable relief of the circulatory system by speeding up blood circulation, endarterectomy of the capillaries and the effects on peripheral vascular wall tension.

- Very rapid-acting analgesic with a first-term treatments for several
hours. After several treatments are often observed sustained analgesic effect.

- Alignment of the hyperactivity of the nervous system. Because massage segment

- In addition to the impact of reflex - also produces effects similar to classical massage, therefore, stimulates the secretion of substances which give the effect of autonomic detuning by humoral immune response.

- Changes in the hormonal system affecting the functioning of the body.

- During and after the classic massage increases the oxygen consumption nearly doubled as compared to the
output. The massage segmentamym stated at the beginning of the treatment increased consumption
oxygen, which returns to baseline levels even during the massage.

- There is a general increase in efficiency of the organism. Massage segment can be used
in sport as a massage przedstartowy (unlike the classical massage).

Indications and contraindications for massage segmentary

The scope of indications for segmental massage covers all the classic indications for massage, extended to diseases of internal organs.

The main indications are, therefore:

- Functional and chronic diseases of internal organs,

- Circulatory disorders,

- Functional, degenerative and chronic rheumatic disease of the spine, joints and soft tissues

- Post-traumatic disorders (sprains, dislocations, fractures)

- Autonomic nervous system disorders,

- Disturbances in the functioning of endocrine glands.

Important is also the possibility of using segmental massage, a sports massage, especially of pre.

Contraindications

- Bleeding and bleeding and the threat of their occurrence.

It is disputable whether segmental massage should be used where there are no changes in reflex. Kibler argues that it is not possible impact zone, although the connection does not show changes in segmental reflex.

Glaser and Dalicho believe that the impact of the reflex zones is possible, even if not able to show abnormalities of reflex. As evidence of this claim indicate that after the resolution of any reflex changes may occur in the new case of further implementation of the massage.

I believe that massage should not be performed in the absence of segmental reflex changes, either because it does not get a therapeutic effect, or will bring to the emergence of these changes.
