new videos every day life wisdom psyche truth massage hi I'm Jen Hillman
2
and something I'm going to show you guys today is the difference between Swedish massage
3
and deep tissue massage a lot of times these two techniques will be used in combination
4
because they really complement each other very well but
5
But there are some differences in the approach that you take and the effect on the body.
6
So let's go ahead and get started.
7
I'll just use a little bit of oil to work on the back.
8
Generally speaking, Swedish massage is used to stimulate circulation,
9
to help relax the body
10
and is usually characterized by long continuous fluid movements
11
so a Swedish technique is used to apply oil to the skin for example
12
so using long strokes with steady pressure across the entire surface of the part that I'm
13
working.
14
Swedish massage is a great way to start to warm up the muscle tissue and helps to improve circulation in the area,
15
really helping to flush out the arteries and veins
16
that are carrying the blood it also helps to bring more oxygen to any tight muscles
17
so just using these long strokes all the way
18
across her back just helping her to relax
19
and allowing her body to become accustomed to my touch so
20
applying the oil in this way is pretty standard for any deep tissue or Swedish massage.
21
So there's some other Swedish techniques that you can use.
22
One is called petrissage where it's a form of kneading.
23
So you actually knead the tissue back and forth.
24
So across her back I can do the left side
25
and then the right side just kneading back and forth so I'm using a steady pressure but it's not extremely deep
26
Petressage can also be used in a localized area, just working the shoulders for example.
27
This is a place where a lot of people carry tension.
28
So you can just work one area or you can work more generally a larger area.
29
Another great Swedish technique is using the flat part of the knuckles, not the edges of the knuckles,
30
that can be too deep and sensitive.
31
So using the flat parts of the knuckles,
32
you can move your hands all the way down on either side of the spine in one long continuous stroke.
33
Making circles right at the tops of the hips is also
34
a really great way to target it another tight area for a lot of people
35
so again just running the flat part of the knuckles down the spine
36
And making circles at the tops of the hips.
37
So by now your partner is probably feeling pretty relaxed
38
and comfortable on the table
39
and by working the Swedish techniques in this way you have
40
had a chance to identify where there might be some tension or tightness in your partner's body.
41
So this is a good time to start working some of the deep tissue techniques.
42
So deep tissue really just refers to an approach where you start to access the deeper layers of muscles.
43
This is where you'll start to identify knots and tight constricted areas of tension.
44
So I'll work into her shoulders because it is an area where a lot of people deal with tension.
45
So just using a slightly firmer pressure I can go in with my thumbs and start to work a more isolated area.
46
And as I work into this area, I'm noticing little knots, little bumps,
47
places where the tissue is not soft.
48
It's kind of hard and tight.
49
So these are the areas where she's holding tension.
50
And it's kind of hard to show on a video because it's something that I'm feeling.
51
So as you practice these techniques, it's really important that you tune in to your partner's body
52
and be aware of what you feel so one way
53
that I like to use deep tissue is to identify those knots
54
or identify a tight place and use a firm steady pressure right in
55
that area and you can also ask your partner does that feel pretty tight,
56
is that sensitive and it's also good to just check in with the pressure to make sure
57
that you're not hurting them because sometimes these areas can be really sensitive
58
and once I feel a little release I
59
can move into another area like I said everybody's body is different
60
so the sensations
61
that you'll notice are all going to be different some people
62
have really crunchy spots where it feels like you're running your
63
fingers over gravel those areas I like to use a little
64
bit of vibration actually vibrating the area with a steady firm pressure.
65
This helps to bring blood into the area, really helps to flood the area with blood that has new oxygen,
66
white blood cells, red blood cells.
67
All of these help to repair tissues and improve circulation.
68
And as this starts to loosen up, I can actually work even deeper into the tissue now and
69
you
70
can use these techniques just identifying knots all over the back
71
but especially in the shoulders between the shoulder blades at the
72
tops of the shoulders you'll find a lot of knots for most people
73
so just wherever you find those little tight spots just hone in on that area using a steady firm pressure.
74
Sometimes when people are really tight and have some knots, the knot is hard to isolate.
75
It'll kind of slip to one side or the other.
76
That is an indicator to you that it's an area that's really tight.
77
So just try and stay patient and stay focused
78
and really try to isolate that tight spot so you can help it to release and relax.
79
So that's one way to use deep tissue techniques.
80
Another thing I like to do is to use my elbow and forearm.
81
This is a great way to work the way all the
82
way down the spine as people carry a lot of tension in the erector muscles.
83
So it's important to note if you are choosing to use your elbow
84
that you want to stay either on the left or right side of the spine.
85
Using your elbow directly on the vertebrae feels terrible don't do
86
that we really want to work into the muscle tissue along either side of the spine
87
so I go in with my forearm first just to make a connection
88
and I'm using a firm pressure here
89
but I'm not digging into the tissue again even though we're
90
working deeply the point is still relaxation you want your partner to feel comfortable
91
so working nice
92
and slow as I make my way down the spine it's like squeezing a tube of toothpaste
93
so it's literally squeezing lactic acid and and toxins out of the tissue,
94
making way for fresh blood.
95
And you may notice other places where your partner feels tight along the back,
96
so it's It's important that you're not in any rush, not trying to push your own agenda,
97
but really just trying to work with what you're picking up from your partner's body.
98
And as I reach the base of the spine and start to make contact with the top of her hip bone,
99
I bring the pressure less in my elbow and more into the forearm
100
so that I can continue moving past her hip bone up onto the sacrum.
101
And using a steady downward pressure towards her feet,
102
she's actually able to get a stretch along the low back.
103
And then just gently sliding my forearm off of her back, I can return my hands to the top.
104
So once I come all the way back up to the top of her shoulder,
105
I can just use my fingers to run along the side of her neck,
106
just getting those muscles along the edge of the spine all the way up to the head.
107
This gives a nice complete feeling
108
so these are just a few of some of my favorite techniques
109
that I use a lot of the time so
110
if you go ahead and favorite this video
111
and leave a thumbs up then you can come back
112
and watch it again and work your forearm down the other side of the back
113
and give yourself a chance to practice these Swedish and deep tissue techniques
114
and I'll be making more videos covering this topic of Swedish versus deep tissue massage.
115
We'll be covering other areas of the body as well.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
