Massage is not contraindicated at all. But all types of massage are contraindicated exclusively to manual lymph drainage. General massage should never be performed on pitting edema, but the only exception is specifically indicated massage that effects the lymphatic fluid. ANd there is basically only one type of massage that is considered safe in that situation, and that is manual lymph drainage (MLD). The most well known of these is the Vodder system. So, my advice to you is to find a Vodder MLF specialist that is in your area. You can always check out the AMTA for a list of massage therapists in your area and then find one that can do MLF.
The benefits that can be received by having a lymphatic drainage massage include improved healing after surgery, better breastfeeding, an improved immune system and help with relaxation.
Yes. A massage is contraindicated if you have a fever. You could do a few acupressure points or energy massage, but any mechanical massage is contraindicated.
Yes it is. Massage, provided that it is the appropriate type, can be very beneficial to the person experiencing the edema. Try Manual Lymphatic Drainage.
A bunion is locally contraindicated for massage. Factors in the formation of bunion formation are pressure and rubbing of the joint, massage would likely aggravate the condition. In the acute stage: ice, reduction in inflammation and swelling by lymphatic drainage may be indicated. For the client, it is most critical to reduce the pressure on the joint by changes in their footwear; the condition has been eliminated by improvement of the fit, style (no high heals), or adaptation (local stretch of shoe in the bunion area). Leather shoes are required to provide the necessary support and adaptation for the foot. Encourage the client to see a podiatrist.
Goiter's are locally contraindicated, meaning you can not massage directly over the goiter itself, massage on the rest of the body is still fine.
If you are asking if "massage" is indicated or contraindicated for massage, it would depend on what other factors are involved. There is not enough information in the question to be able to produce an answer.
The only types of edema that are contraindicated for massage are the undiagnosed, potentially pathogenic varieties. The best thing to do is ask your massage therapist or doctor.
There are a few differences between a regular massage and an erotic massage. In most cases, an erotic/exotic massage is not offered by a licensed massage therapist. In place of lymphatic drainage and increased circulatory in a regular massage, erotic/exotic massages are simply pursuing physical pleasure.
Yes.
Only massage in which the therapist is applying deep pressure or compression to the arthritic joints would be contraindicated. Stretching arthritic joints into painful or strenuous positions would also be contraindicated. All forms of gentle stretching and massage, as well as deep tissue massage, as long as it's not directly over the arthritic joint, or causing pain in those joints, would be acceptable.
