Muscle Rheumatism Massage in Gävle
Introduction
Muscle rheumatism can have a major impact on everyday life. The pain and stiffness can make it difficult to perform certain activities and one’s work. It is most common for women over the age of 50 to suffer from muscular rheumatism. Massage is said to be good for muscle rheumatism as it increases blood circulation, reduces muscle tension, increases the cells’ nutrient uptake and reduces waste products.
The fascia clinics in Gävle offer a unique treatment method that can alleviate your discomfort from this disease. We do not massage but perform so-called fascia treatments. By placing a special focus on the fascia, the network of connective tissue that envelops and penetrates all muscles, bones, joints and organs, we can offer an individualized and effective treatment for each individual.

What is muscle rheumatism?
Symptoms and causes of muscle rheumatism
Muscular rheumatism, sometimes also called polymyalgia rheumatics, is a complex disease. As the symptoms of muscular rheumatism are often similar to other diseases, it can be difficult to make a diagnosis. Symptoms often develop gradually over a few weeks and often affect both sides of the body. Common symptoms include pain and stiffness in muscles and joints and limited mobility. You can also suffer from general symptoms such as fever, fatigue, depression, weight loss and reduced appetite
So far, no cause of muscular rheumatism has been found, except that the immune system seems to play a role. What is known, however, is that fascia plays a central role in the pain symptoms that are experienced. If the fascia in an area becomes condensed or tight, the pressure on its pain receptors can increase, leading to an increase in pain.
The goals of muscle rheumatism massage
The goals of massage in muscle rheumatism are to relieve muscle tension to reduce pain, increase mobility in the affected muscles and joints. The massage should not be too rough as it can worsen the symptoms.

How a muscle rheumatism massage works at the Fascia clinics
Preparation
The first time you visit the Fascia Clinics for a fascia treatment, you will undergo a thorough consultation. You can then discuss your specific needs, problem areas, and any medical conditions. With this information, we can ensure that your experience is as pleasant and efficient as possible.
The treatment process
After the consultation, we begin the fascia treatment itself. A treatment is always done with the clothes on and no oil is used. The therapist uses his hands and a Fascia innovation machine that sends out deep waves in the body. These speed up the flow and dissolve condensations in the fascia. Muscle tension and pressure on the pain receptors can then be reduced. By removing condensations and increasing the flow in the fascia, the lymphatic system is also stimulated and blood circulation increases. A treatment does not focus on the area that hurts, but the whole body is treated to prevent the problem from recurring.
After the treatment
After treatment, it is normal to feel tired and lethargic. If the therapist thinks it is necessary, you can get advice and exercises to take home with you. It can help you maintain your positive treatment results and speed up your healing. Remember that it is important that you are willing and intentionally engage daily to experience positive change. Otherwise, there is a great risk that the problems will recur.
