Ah, Miami. The land of gorgeous white-sand beaches and sunny weather. This is the place where people go to relax and have fun. That’s why it is no surprise that Miami is a haven for massage lovers as well.
If you are feeling overwhelmed with the choices and not sure which massage would be best for you, read on to learn our top recommendations. To help you make the most of your Miami experience, we are breaking down the most-requested massages at DermaClinic in Coral Gables and how they can help you.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage
This is a natural therapeutic massage that soothes and supports your body’s natural lymphatic processes. With the use of long, rhythmic strokes, this massage stimulates the flow of lymph fluid throughout your body. If you are looking for a massage that will improve your immune system, detoxify the body, and boost your energy levels, a lymphatic drainage massage will certainly benefit you.
In addition, it also reduces water retention, so if you’ve been feeling bloated, be ready to feel as light as a feather after your massage! A lymphatic drainage massage also helps reduce cellulite from the body, making you appear more toned and contoured.
This is a very gentle massage that’s performed with light hand strokes so you won’t feel any pain or discomfort.
Deep Tissue Massage
One of the most common and effective types of massage is a deep tissue massage which is performed with heavier pressure. If you suffer from any type of chronic pain or muscle cramps, a deep tissue massage will help relax your body muscles and relieve the pain.
Unlike a lymphatic drainage massage, this massage is done with deep strokes and you might feel some pain or discomfort at certain points during the massage. But this goes away within a day or so.
As the name suggests, it’s a “deep tissue” massage so expect the massage to be intense, but afterwards, you’ll feel relaxed and rejuvenated like never before. It involves applying firm pressure to reach deeper layers of connective tissue and muscles to relieve the pain and tightness.
Anyone who regularly experiences stiffness in their neck, back, shoulders, or joints will benefit greatly from a deep tissue massage.
Prenatal Massage
There is nothing like soothing massage to rub away the strains and pains of pregnancy. At DermaClinic, we have certified massage therapists who are trained to give maternal massages. If you are pregnant, it is extremely important to go to massage professionals who know exactly how to relieve any pressure and pain related to your changing anatomy.
Our expert prenatal massage therapists use high-quality sunflower and camellia oil to deeply moisturize your skin and reduce the appearance of stretch marks. You will also experience relief from leg cramping, back and neck pain, joint pain, insomnia, and other pregnancy-related issues. If you have any swelling in your hands and feet (that’s not a result of preeclampsia), it will also go away after a prenatal massage.
But most importantly, it will lift your spirits and banish all the stress and depression that sometimes comes with a pregnancy.
Hot Stone Massage
Do you often feel chilly? Are you suffering from anxiety, insomnia, depression, or back pain? If yes, then a hot stone massage just might be what you need. This is a deeply relaxing and comforting massage that can leave you feeling warm and cozy.
The heat of the stones used during the massage relaxed muscles, allowing the massage therapist to work deeper without applying heavy pressure. This is also an excellent option for anyone who suffers from a pain syndrome, such as hypertension, fibromyalgia, or arthritis.
Contrary to what you may believe, the hot stones don’t cause any pain or discomfort at all. Our skilled massage therapists will place the hot stones on certain points on your body to ease pains, promote blood flow, and relieve muscle tension.
