2 Clients

tension and reduce pain. It can be effective for reducing the symptoms of disorders
of pain in the muscles and nervous system, and it is often used to reduce stress. The
rubbing and kneading of muscles and joints of the body with the hands, especially
to relieve tension or pain.

One relaxes and takes pleasure after every treatment. However, there are some
mild reactions that can be experienced by the client such as: muscle pains, tiredness
and dizziness due to toxins released from their body. So, it is very important to have
a follow up or after care body massage.

What is It

PERFORM AFTERCARE SERVICES

Massage After Care Advice

1. Drink plenty of water or herbal teas to help eliminate the toxins from the body.
2. Cut down on drinks containing caffeine so the body can begin to heal.
3. Eat a light healthy meal so the body can concentrate on healing
4. Rest as much as possible
5. If possible, avoid alcohol for about 24 hours.
6. If aroma therapy oils were used, try to avoid a bath/shower for at least 2
hours.

After treatment you will usually feel relaxed and enjoy the benefits of the
treatment. Occasionally, you may experience a reaction from the treatment,
however these are mainly due to the toxins being released from the body, as the
body is rebalancing and cleansing itself.

More common reactions can include: aching/soreness of muscles, tiredness

and heightened emotional state. Less common reactions can include: headache,
dizziness or nausea, excessive urination, increase in bowel movement, irritation,
skin changes, fatigue, hyperactivity and change of appetite.

 Eat light, easy to digest meals

 Avoid alcohol, caffeine and cola
 Take time out for relaxation

Home Advice

Home care advice is very beneficial for the client, as it involves them in the
treatment and encourages them to take control of their condition. It also provides
linkage between one treatment and the next. The advice given will obviously depend
on the client’s need and condition, ex. The overweight client or a client with cellulite
will need dietary advice. For the tense, overworked client you may suggest that
he/she tries to reduce his/her workload, that he/she makes time to rest. Takes
relaxing bath and goes to bed early.

You may also teach relaxation techniques and advise her/him to practice
these at home. Those with poor posture can be taught corrective exercises. Deep
breathing exercises are helpful to everyone as they increase the intake of oxygen and
the elimination of carbon dioxide. These techniques are explained in the following
text.

Diet

Advice to clients

It is important that clients are made aware of the factors that are thought to
contribute to the build-up of fat and cellulite. They should be encouraged to follow a
self-help, daily regime that will increase the efficiency of the treatment.

The following home advice should be given:

A. Eat a well- balanced diet:

Include all the nutrients necessary for health such as:
- A little fat
- Proteins
- Carbohydrates
- Vitamins
- Minerals
- Water and fiber
- Eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables
- Do not overcook vegetables
- eat whole meat foods such as whole meal bread, pasta, rice, cereals,
beans, nuts and seeds
- reduce intake of saturated fat found in butter, dairy products and red
meat

4
 - reduce intake of sugar and salt
- drink around 3 liters of water per day

B. Relaxation
Relaxation means being free from tension and anxiety, which are
normally caused by the stresses of life, which upset the body balance. It is
impossible to remove all the stressors in life. A certain amount of stress is
desirable as it can produce feelings of thrill and excitement. The ability to relax
is extremely important as it combats stress and reduces harmful effects such
as fatigue, lethargy and psychological problems.
Clients who live very busy lives or are coping with worries or dealing
with unhappy situations may find it very difficult to relax. Advising them and
showing them ways of reducing stress and promoting relaxation can form an
important part in the treatment. Once they have recognized the difference
between the tense state and the relaxed state they can continue to practice at
home.

C. Preparation
The first consideration is to prepare the room or cubicle and create the
Right conditions to promote the relaxation response. These will be the same
Conditions required as those for massage treatment, namely:
- A warm, well-ventilated area
- A quiet area, away from distracting noise
- A clean environment
- Soothing décor in pastel colors
- A comfortable couch or mattress on the floor
- Clean line and towels for every client; these to b boil-washed after each
use
- Light blankets for additional warmth
- Very soft, slow-moving music may be played if the client dislikes absolute
quietness.
Relaxation Techniques

There are many techniques that may be used to encourage the client to relax.
They may be combined for maximum effect.

The relaxation response involves the client’s response to a quiet soothing

environment: total concentration on a particular object while trying to let go of all
tension. This is sometimes sufficient to promote to relaxed state and can be practiced
anywhere.

Visualization or imagining involves visualizing pleasantly soothing.

situations conducive to relaxation, ex. Lying on a beach, looking at a tranquil scene
etc.

Progressive relaxation aims to develop an awareness of the difference

between feelings of tension and relaxation. Contraction followed by relaxation of all
the muscle groups is performed, working around the body. This is a very effective
method of promoting relaxation.
