What Are The Side Effects Of A Massage?


It goes without saying that life can

be full of stress, and a variety of situations, circumstances, and more may be affecting you more than you think. Indeed, the thought of a bubble bath, some time to yourself, or even a much-needed massage might cross your mind from time to time, and we recommend spending some time on you by getting some R&R. Keep in mind, however, that you will want to know about the impact deep-tissue massage and other processes may have on your body. In today’s blog, your Dallas, TX spa therapists discuss the side effects of a massage, as well as what you can expect after your session.


Sore Muscles

There are a variety of reasons to seek the benefits of spa therapy, such as rejuvenating the skin, cleansing your body, and ultimately relaxing the tense muscles that you may be carrying. Indeed, our team offers a variety of spa services to help you relax as well as increase your overall wellbeing. This includes working out any knots and manipulating the muscles during a much-needed massage. Keep in mind though that one of the side effects of receiving a massage is sore muscles, a symptom that many may be surprised to encounter.

Sore muscles may seem contradictory to the purpose of getting a massage. After all, isn’t it one of the best ways to relive soreness in muscles? Though this statement is true, bear in mind that if you have never received a massage before or you are not used to your muscles being manipulated in such a manner, soreness or slight lingering pain may ensure. While it may seem alarming initially, bear in mind that this is normal and fairly common. For more information about this process, reach out to our team today.

Headaches or Migraines

Headaches or migraines may not be as common as muscle pain or soreness, however, it is often nothing to fret about when following a massage. Indeed, possible reasons for headache development could be due to odd head positioning during your treatment. This can also occur when your neck or upper back is getting massaged, as the release of tension or pressure from these areas can cause a headache to form. Contact our team today to learn more.

Nausea

Another not-so-common side effect that is nothing to worry about includes feelings of nausea. This can occur after treatment and is often due to the release of toxins from your body that massage therapy induces. In cases such as these, it is best to drink plenty of water and get some rest to allow your body to return to homeostasis as the toxins leave your body.
