Massage and aromatherapy

Massage as a method of treatment has a long tradition and has been used for many centuries throughout the world to treat a variety of disorders and reduce the severity of their manifestations. Massage helps to relax and improve the quality of the resting state, which allows the body's forces to concentrate on fighting the disease, and not with problems caused by stress.
To achieve the state of relaxation is effective as a head and face massage, and a back and neck massage. The strained, numb muscles of the upper back and neck, which are often the result of poor posture, can cause headaches, increase insomnia and lead to excessive relaxation of the opposite group of muscles of the chest. As a result, the airways are squeezed, and the condition of patients with allergies such as hay fever and asthma, in which respiration is affected, deteriorates. Massage of the back and neck can relieve tension from the muscles involved in breathing, and reduce discomfort. Face and head massage, especially with hay fever, not only relaxes muscles, but also helps absorb excess fluid around the nose and eyes, reduce tension and irritation of facial tissues.

The deep relaxation created by the massage also removes the negative effects of stress and allows the autonomic nervous system to restore balance, which prevents hyper-reaction from the parasympathetic nervous system to the presence of allergens, stops the development of the allergic reaction and all associated manifestations.
Preparation. Choose a quiet warm room and spend half an hour to massage, so that no one bothers you, turn off the phone and an answering machine. Undress to the waist and remove all ornaments, then lie on a hard surface bed or floor, put a warm towel on the pillow;
