When it comes to wellness and relaxation, you may come across two terms: bodywork and massage. While they both involve touch and manipulation of the body, they are distinct practices with different definitions.
Bodywork refers to various techniques that may or may not involve touch to manipulate the body's tissues. This can include practices like acupressure, Asian bodywork, and other holistic approaches. Bodywork is often focused on energy flow and may not always follow the systematic techniques used in massage. In Massachusetts, bodywork practitioners may need to be licensed, depending on local regulations.
Massage, on the other hand, is a specific type of treatment that systematically addresses the soft tissues of the body. It includes techniques such as pressure, friction, stroking, kneading, and vibration. The primary goal of massage is to enhance or restore your health and well-being. Massage may also involve the use of oils, hot and cold packs, and other methods to promote relaxation and healing.
By understanding these differences, you can choose the service that best meets your needs for relaxation and wellness!
