Manual massage

Manual massage is not just pleasure and lightness in the body, it is a complex therapy that covers the physical and mental spheres of the body. Due to massage movements, the flow of lymph and blood is accelerated, cell nutrition improves. At the same time, blood supply improves not only to the surface layers, but also to adjacent organs, and congestion is eliminated. As a result of massage, muscle elasticity is significantly increased without the release of lactic acid, muscles and connective tissues are gently stretched, they are saturated with oxygen, and their performance improves.
