The purpose of the massage of the back is to stimulate the nerves and circulation for treating backache, rheumatic afflictions of the back muscles, and for soothing the nervous system.
The patient is made to lie down with the arms at the sides. The masseur effleurages the back
from the shoulders downwards using both hands on each side of the spine. Stroking is done
from the sacrum upward. Friction follows with each hand at the sides of the spine going down
slowly. Next, kneading by muscle picking is done with squeezing. Alternate rapid pushing and
pulling movement of the hands sliding down the spine. Circular kneading should also be done.
The treatment should end by slapping, hacking and cupping on each side of the spine. Gentle
stroking and light kneading of the back is relieving and
soothing. Percussion and vibration result
into stimulating experience. Vibration of the end of spine benefits the sacral nerves and pelvic
organs. It is recommended in constipation, hemorrhoids, weakness and congestion of the
bladder and sexual organs.
Massage of the Throat:
This helps to overcome headache, sore throat and catarrh of the throat. The patient is made to
throw his head back. The masseur places palms of both hands on sides of neck with thumbs
under the chin, and fingers under the ears. A downward stroke is next made towards the chest
over the jugular veins.
Do not exert heavily on the jugular veins.
