What happens to your muscles during and after a massage?
In: Biology
It’s basically about regulating the nervous tissues. You’re not really doing anything directly to the muscles or even the fascia – there are numerous articles out there that show this – you’re mainly up/down regulating the nervous tissue. Basically like another person here said, you’re trying to get what might be termed “overactive” muscles to relax and “turn off.” You might even be trying to do the opposite – you may be trying to turn the “off” muscles “on,” meaning you may be trying to get “underactive” muscles to work better
