Benefits Of Massage For Wheelchair Users
Some people in wheelchairs even have to deal with severe levels of chronic pain that disrupts their life. Many patients also have to deal with the psychological impact of being unable to walk again. This can be a devastating realization.
Whether your time in a wheelchair is temporary or permanent it’s important to tend to your body’s needs, along with your mental wellness. Or, perhaps you are looking into arranging treatment for a loved one who is in a wheelchair.
Massage therapy can have tremendous physical benefits for people in a wheelchair. Individuals who are in a wheelchair often have muscles that are both hypertonic (tightened) and/or atrophied (weakened by not being used) for obvious reasons.
On the other side of the coin, compensatory muscles are used more and these can become painful or begin to ache. In other words, certain muscle groups make up for the difference in strength and ability, which can cause them to become overworked. This can lead to various soft tissue problems leading to pain. Tendonitis is common in these cases.
Numerous studies have shown massage therapy helps with chronic pain such as tendonitis and hypertonicity. Massage therapy also causes the release of endorphins which improves mood and the general sense of well being that we all want to feel.
Massage can been see as the painkiller for the body and will lower immediate and average levels of pain experienced. This benefits someone in a wheelchair who can experience lower levels of stress, leading to a higher quality of life.
Improved blood flow can provide other benefits too such as more rapid healing of different areas of the body.
Furthermore, massage therapy can be beneficial in improving mobility. The joints in the body will have a greater range of motion after a professional massage treatment.
As well as this, if joints are inactive, a proper professional massage from our staff can help ensure that the joints continue to be supple. This once again tends to reduce levels of pain felt through the body.
Of course, the discomfort of a wheelchair isn’t just physical. Mental conditions such as depression, stress, anxiety and helplessness are all common. However, a professional massage treatment can help here too.
Studies have shown that massages can help patients feel less stressed and generally happier. Our treatment can help relieve many of the negative issues including pain and even severe levels of depression that can be associated with a high level of wheelchair use.
