|
Stimulates the Nervous system, Endocrine System, and the chemicals of the body.
|
Reflexive effects
|
|
Techniques directly affect tissue normalizing connective tissue, moving body fluids and intestinal content
|
Mechanical
|
|
Effects fine motor activities, conscious selection and mood in terms of inspiration, possibly intuition, joy and enthusiasm
|
Dopamine
|
|
Does massage increase or decrease levels of dopamine.
|
Increase
|
|
Allows a person to maintain context-appropriate emotions, subdues irritability, and regulates drives to suppress urges.
Also reduces hunger and cravings and modulates sleep/wake cycles |
Serotonin
|
|
Does massage increase or decrease levels of serotonin in the body.
|
increase
|
|
Activates arousal mechanisms in the body for sympathetic fight or flight.
|
Epinephrine/ Adrenaline
|
|
Activates arousal mechanisms in the brain for sympathetic fight or flight.
Increased levels= hyperactivity,decreased restorative sleep Low levels=sluggish, drowsy, fatigued |
Norepinephrine/Noradrenaline
|
|
mood lifters that support satiety and modulate pain
Does massage increase or decrease these. |
enkephalins/endorphines
Increase |
|
the hormone that allows bonding and intimacy along with it's functions in pregnancy, delivery, and lactation.
|
Oxytocin
|
|
a stress hormone produced by the adrenal glands during prolonged stress
|
Cortisol
|
|
Elevated levels increase sympathetic arousal and cause stress related symptoms such as:
|
Suppressed immunity
Sleep distubances Increase in the level of substance P |
|
Long time elevated cortisol levels cause:
|
Fluid retention
Hypertension muscle weakness break down of CT Ulcers Weight gain Impaired wound healing |
|
Does massage increase or decrease levels of cortisol and substance P.
|
Decrease
|
|
Promotes cell division and has been implicated in the function of cell repair and regeneration.
|
Growth Hormone
|
|
Does massage increase/decrease levels of growth H.
How. |
Increases
By encouraging sleep and reducing cortisol. |
|
Massage increases levels of _________, __________, and ________ which therefore facilitates the production n the natural killer cells in the immune system.
|
Serotonin, Dopamine, and Endorphines
|
|
Massage recalibrates the levels of epinephrine and norepinephrine. The first 15 minutes of massage stimulates the client's __________ nervous system making them more alert and attentive. One hour of massage will stimulate the ________________ nervous system relaxing the client.
|
Sympathetic
Parasympathetic |
|
Brain, Spinal Chord and their coverings
|
Central Nervous system
|
|
Nerve fiber innervation of the body walls (muscles, joints and other structures).
|
Somatic Nervous system
|
|
in the hypothalamus of the CNS, mind/body link- effects and is effected by the endocrine system
|
Autonomic Nervous system
|
|
fear/fight or flight system
Chemical factor- hormones, endorphins, and epinephrine is released. |
Sympathetic Nervous system
|
|
Stages of sympathetic activationa dn stress
|
1. Alarm
2. Resistance 3. Exhaustion |
|
fight or flight- arm and leg muscles tighten, BP increases, digestion shuts down, and glycogen is mobilized for energy.
15-30 min. ` |
Alarm
|
|
hormones allow the body to continue fighting stressor long after alarm has dissipated. This is when cortisol is called in.
|
resistance
|
|
takes place if there is no relieft from stress. Cardio vascular, upper respiratory and gastrointestinal problems tend to develop. The body begins to break down. Burn out
|
Exhaustion
|
|
Restorative patterns of peace and calm. Rest&digest.
Digestion and elimination increase and physical activity is curtailed. When we become fatigued the _______ Nervous system signals the body to rest. |
Parasympathetic Nervous System
|
|
What is an example of the parasympathetic response to stress.
Parasympathetic dysfunction= |
Chronic fatigue
Depression |
|
massage influences both the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems to restore?
|
homeostasis
|
|
caused from abuse, neglect, or starvation. In animals it's called playing possum or hibernation. This plays a part in depression.
What kind of massage can help bring the client out? But, what do you not want it to seem to be? |
Conservation Withdrawal
Stimulating massage Abusive |
|
synchronization to a rhythm. This is a reflex effect that is process in the ANS.
In body heart rate/ respiration rates and the thalamus set the rhythm. It promotes balance to support homeostasis. |
Entrainment
|
|
music 4/4 beat at 60 Bpm or less _____ the body.
Faster will _____ but, if it is an even rhythm the body will achieve a focused altered state. |
Calm
Excite |
|
Meditation and relaxation methods create an environment for ____________.
|
Entrainment
|
|
When awareness differs from normal. Massage can induce this and therefore use this in controlling pain and in healing. It must be achieved for at least 15 min.
|
Altered state of consciousness
|
|
Both the massage practitioner and the client achieve this during a massage session. Therefore the massage is beneficial to both individuals
|
Altered state of consciousness
|
|
If some chemical is released during body work it may trigger an emotion or a memory or resolve a past experience that was unresolvable.
*Do not Counsel! What should we do? |
State Dependent Memory
Be there to calm them down. Just massage and refer them to counseling. |
|
This is the repeated exposure to stimuli that arouse. This teaches the body to manage the stressors and deal with the hormones that are released, which increase the individual's tolerance
|
Toughening/hardening

|
This is a very effective and the caring focused attention given in massage may with with this powerful effect. The client's confidence and the massage therapist's attitude will effect this reaction. There is a 70-90%sucess rate using these.
|
Placebo effect.
|
|
What influences can massage have on the ANS
|
-Gives a person more internal control to the environment than the other way round.
- dissipates sympathetic stress and helps alleviate depression -releases endorphins, natural pain killers and mood lifters -increases sympathetic functions --alters muscles to be more or less tense |
|
________ influences movement, muscle contraction, and relaxation, and tone. Effects are mostly reflexive.
|
Somatic
|
|
neuromuscular mechanisms include
a. -which contract or relax b. - recieve and transmit info about muscle tension, and static tone. |
Muscles
Proprioceptors |
|
What are types of proprioceptors?
1. 2. 3. |

|
Hyperactive
|
|
what is a weakened muscle?
|
hypoactive
|
|
Often if a muscle is hyperactive the antagonist muscle becomes?
