Why add warm bamboo to your massage?

A massage can have rejuvenating powers. Deeply relaxing, or enormously restoring, the right massage technique feeds your soul as it works tense muscles. Warm bamboo massage is a therapeutic massage technique that uses warmed bamboo stick to work deeper than hands alone, in combination with Swedish or deep tissue techniques. Apart from relieving stress and tension, bamboo has many unique properties that make it known around the world as a “magical plant.” It

even has medicinal and nutritional properties that work with the systems of the body to improve circulation and deep relaxation.


Bamboo massage works very similarly to a traditional massage, in which the knots, stresses and stiffness in the body is relieved through the application of pressure to loosen the knots, relax the stiffness and relieve pain. However, in a bamboo massage, bamboo stalks are used instead of hands. Bamboo can help massage the deeper layers of the muscles, loosening the knots better than simply using the hands,

Bamboo sticks are used by rolling them over the body and kneading the muscles simply by running the sticks up and down, The sticks used can be of varying sizes, depending on the part of the body they are being used on. In order to intensify the massage, the bamboo is sometimes heated to slightly higher temperature to facilitate the massage into the deeper layers of the muscle.

Blissful Benefits of Bamboo Massage If you have yet to try this incredible service, then you are truly missing out on a treatment that heals body and soul. Check out the following seven blissful benefits of Bamboo Massage for an in-depth look at this marvelous modality! 1. Prepares the Body for Deep Tissue Massage Bamboo tools are heated in a heating pad to the appropriate temperature. The warmth alone relaxes cold muscles. In turn, it allows the therapists to use the tools to address the affected area sooner. Since the muscles immediately react to the heat, they relax quicker. So, the massage itself is more effective. Efficiency, in essence, is a clear benefit of this type of massage. It gives the therapists a means of (pre-)preparing the body for the treatment. In the end, this means faster results.

2. Induces The Profound State Of Relaxation Aside from its comforting, therapeutic warmth, this massage instantly relaxes the muscles. It does this by using warm bamboo to knead the tissues like bread dough. Thus, it lengthens and broadens the musculature. Like a rolling pin, Bamboo Massage tools replicate the action of kneading a dough. Thereby insisting the muscles further relax. Instead of beating them into submission, the tools gently and respectfully soften the structures for optimal relaxation.

3. Increases Circulation In The Body The warmth of the tools causes the blood vessels to dilate, which in turn increases blood flow. When blood rushes through the interstitial tissues, it flushes out toxins. And provides an immediate healing effect. Individuals with poor circulation may suffer from the discomfort of excess fluid in their extremities, such as the hands and feet. Typically, this can result in fatigue, achiness, and cold extremities due to an accumulation of lactic acid in the musculature. By increasing the circulation in the body, it brings in fresh, oxygen-rich blood to tense, damaged muscles. Lymphatic fluid circulation is also enhanced, resulting in improved bodily functions, lower blood pressure, and the removal of metabolic waste from internal organs and muscles.

4. Reduces Muscle Tension and Soreness With the combination of the three above mentioned points, the result is that muscle tension and soreness vanish. Now that there is increased blood flow in the body, the hands-on Bamboo massage tool techniques work to stimulate the muscles at the source of discomfort and pain. In doing so, it creates a healing, pain-relieving effect. In this way, the body’s natural painkillers assist to dull the pain and release tension. When a therapist focuses on the physical source of discomfort, chronic conditions like migraines, arthritis, and back pain have been found to improve drastically.

5. Provides a Unique Experience In essence, Bamboo Massage feels a lot like a session performed entirely with the therapist’s forearms. However, this is not the case at all. Instead, the practitioner’s hands and forearms move together fluidly, seamlessly, creating a truly unique experience. As phenomenal as any massage is, there’s something unquestionably one-of-a-kind about Bamboo Massage. It is quite common for people to go out of their way to experience such an exceptionally soothing treatment. The word ‘relaxing’ doesn’t do it justice as a descriptor for this treatment style. It provides the clients with a remarkably revitalizing experience. At the end of a session, clients frequently feel as though they took a well-deserved mini vacation to tropical island resort spa.
