TYPES of
MASSAGE
Types of Massage
The seven (7) categories described below
pretty much cover the field of massage at the
present moment. Each of these types of
massage attracts its own type of client, and
requires its own set of skills on the part of the
practitioner
1. Relaxation/stress
reduction
The most common kind of massage. relaxation or stress
reduction massage includes the types of treatments
common in resorts, spas, private offices and client's
homes. This category would also include wellness
massage, or preventive health massage.
2. sports massage
This rapidly growing field encompasses
athletic training massage, and massage
designed to help an athlete prepare for
competition and recover from competing.
3. medical massage
Working by prescription, or in a hospital, or in a
physical therapist's office, the medical massage
therapist works with pathologies, pain or recovery from
injury. Medical massage can also be adapted to a non-
medical clientele, and practiced in a home setting.
4. chiropractic adjunct
Working in chiropractors' offices is becoming more and
more common, especially on the West coast. Some
practitioners operate relatively independently from the
chiropractor, with a cross-referral agreement. Others work
by prescription of the chiropractor, working on specific
parts of the body that the chiropractor designates.
5. transformational or
psychotherapeutic massage.
Some massage therapists focus on the shifts in
awareness and psychological insight that can be
brought about with massage. These therapists
often work by referral from psychotherapists.
They often combine another form of bodywork
with massage.
6. pampering
Probably a branch of relaxation massage, pampering
refers to the type of treatment that might be found in
some spa and hair salons. This treatment is usually
thought of as more of a beautification treatment than
a health treatment, and might include salt glows, loofa
rubs, and light Swedish massage.
7. chair massage
Massage or shiatsu done with clothing on, client seated,
in any location. This can be done as an introduction to
massage for clients who may not come in for an office
massage, or can be a continuing form of stress-
reduction therapy when done on a regular basis, as in
the office setting.
