Connective tissue or fascia is the layer of skin between your muscles and your skin. Think of it as “cement” that connects and supports organs, muscles and joints. Connective tissue has many functions, such as influencing our metabolism, protecting us from external pressure and transferring forces in our body. But perhaps its most important function: keeping muscles and nerves moving smoothly. Our “wetsuit” provides the body with support and stability. In addition, connective tissue is full of nerves, this means it also plays an important role in experiencing pain symptoms.

In recent years, it has been determined that the basic functions of muscles, joints, organs and tendons require a properly functioning fascial system. The fascia is a connective tissue that connects the layers and structures in the body. Normal muscle function needs well-hydrated surrounding fascia to allow normal tissue gliding. Between 30 and 40 percent of the force your muscle provides comes from the fascia surrounding that muscle. So…. Our fascia does need some special attention.

With a connective tissue massage, connective tissue cells (the fibroblasts) are stimulated to renew. This massage activates the production of collagen and elastin, which causes the skin to firm and rejuvenate. A connective tissue massage is therefore also excellent for treating cellulite on your legs or stretch marks. See also our slimming massage, the connective tissue techniques we apply.

The massage technique is similar to the regular massage but without oil. We use slow stroking techniques combined with pressure techniques, performed on the arms, back, legs and feet. Light strokes, rolling movements and picking up the skin; different techniques are used during the connective tissue massage. Muscles are warmed up and subcutaneous muscle adhesions are relieved. Muscle adhesions occur when the cell walls are poor at absorbing nutrients and discharging waste products. So massaging the connective tissue improves blood flow. Anyway, you really feel invigorated after this massage.
