                                                      What is a wellness massage?

                                                      Ayurveda, hot stone and herbal stamps are just a few examples of well-known wellness massages. But what exactly is meant by this term? In order to get to the bottom of this - and similar questions - we met with SPA employees from the BIO HOTELS. Our experienced masseurs and therapists will give you background knowledge about massages and treatments.


                                                      In principle, the term massage is becoming more and more medical today. People are just doing less and less to keep their bodies and souls happy. Tensions are unnatural conditions that often arise as a result of insufficient movement, one-sidedness and stress. Everyday work life often plays a not inconsiderable role, since many people work in offices these days and therefore have a sedentary job. Unfortunately, the result is often complaints such as tension – or even pain – especially in the neck or back. Here the focus of the treatment can be explicitly determined for the masseur. With a wellness massage, complaints are more in the background. Rather, it's about switching off and "simply having a good time". When people get up after a massage, they should feel like they've been somewhere else

                                                      What is the difference between a wellness massage and a treatment?

                                                      In a wellness massage, a lot of oil is used. Friction and pressure are generated and the muscles are massaged. The physical aspect is clearly in the foreground here. With a classic massage, you usually come to the masseur with a clear idea or a specific problem (from a medical point of view). A treatment, on the other hand, includes not only the physical, but also the heart or the feeling. The body is often the reflection of the soul; emotional stress is often visible. It can sometimes happen that emotions come up. After all, as the saying goes: a massage is balm for body and soul.

                                                      How often should you do a wellness massage?

                                                      That all depends. In the case of tension, you should have a massage two to three times a week, over a period of three to four weeks. In most cases, this period is sufficient to alleviate symptoms and establish a certain status quo. After that, it is enough to treat yourself to a massage from a qualified masseur every 10 or 14 days to maintain this status quo.

                                                      In the case of a wellness massage with the aim of simply switching off or to recharge your batteries, the temporal frequency is of course not so decisive. It is difficult for many people today to tear themselves out of their world of thoughts. Too much is on your mind and you have trouble focusing on the here and now. Here, for example, an Ayurvedic massage is a special experience.

                                                      Who can do massages?

                                                      Quite simply: trained staff. In Austria, for example, there are three different types of masseurs: (1) commercial, (2) medical and (3) therapeutic masseurs. When it comes to wellness massages, they are usually associated with commercial masseurs. Qualified specialists also ensure that the guest gets top quality at a fair price - after all, you want to know that you are in good hands. In the case of real pain, however, it is imperative to consult a doctor before seeking a massage (this is also important from a purely legal point of view).

                                                      How does a full body massage work?

                                                      A good example of a full body massage is the so-called Thai massage. Here the masseur goes deep into the structures, stretches and massages the tissue. In this type of massage, you lie on the floor, fully clothed, unlike in traditional massages; therefore no oil is used. The massage starts on the legs with different pressure techniques and goes deep into the tissue. The masseur then works his way up. It is by no means about triggering pain; Rather, you work on the so-called Sen lines – the energy channels in the body. The aim is to stimulate the natural flow of energy again and to create a harmonious harmony. It is about opening dam walls and locks in the body. The causes of energy blockages can be physical.

                                                      What effect do oils have in wellness massages?

                                                      Oils can have nourishing properties. St. John's wort oil, for example, helps with sunburn; Arnica boosts the metabolism in the muscles. Thus, certain oils offer care on the one hand and the effect of the plants on the other. However, it is important to use natural oils as they do not clog pores. Paraffin oil, on the other hand, which is derived from petroleum, should not be used, for example. In natural products there are also no parabens (chemicals in cosmetic products) and are therefore much better tolerated by the skin. In addition, parabens can have a gene-modifying effect. We must be aware of one thing: Ultimately, every cosmetic product gets under the skin.

                                                      Training and wellness massage – a perfect pair?

                                                      As already mentioned, the goal of a wellness massage is relaxation and switching off. When muscles have worked, more metabolic end products accumulate in the body and these have to be removed again. A classic massage, such as the back and leg massage, supports the regeneration of the tissue. It's about doing something good for your muscles. Therefore, training and massage are an ideal match.
                                                       

                                                      What about the sauna and wellness massage?

                                                      This is a perfect couple. From the classic massage directly to the sauna, it just fits. Here, too, it depends – as is so often the case – on the type of massage. After a hot stone massage, for example, you should avoid going to the sauna afterwards because there is a risk of overheating. The tissue is stimulated in a completely different way and you run the risk of overtaxing your body. It is not for nothing that many people feel flat after a few hours in the wellness area. Wellness has to be done right - physical overload should not be the goal.

                                                      What makes a massage in the BIO HOTEL so special?

                                                      In our BIO HOTELS, it is certain that highly trained people work in the SPA. These are exclusively medical specialists consisting of therapeutic masseurs and physiotherapists. In addition, we only use 100% certified natural cosmetics. Quality in all areas is very important to us. Another special feature that distinguishes us is certainly the respectful interaction that we maintain with our guests. Individual advice is the be-all and end-all. After all, you don't work on someone, you work with someone!
