Connective Tissue Massage
Connective tissue massage is a reflex-based massage technique that works on the connective tissue using specific pulling and shifting stimuli. It has a regulating effect on functional complaints and may positively influence tension in the musculoskeletal system as well as autonomic reactions.
The treatment is usually performed as a partial body massage. Techniques, intensity and treated areas are individually adapted to the client’s condition.
