• Improved circulation

• Immune system boost

• Released tension in muscles and joints

• Higher skin hydration

THE MECHANISM OF WARMING LOTIONS

DISCOVER THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE LOTIONS

Shunts, facilitating rapid regulation of blood supply, are natural connections between blood vessels that enable swift adjustments. Heat and cold induce significant fluctuations in blood supply shunting, ranging from 0.3 ml/min to 150 ml/min of blood per 100 mg of tissue, impacting the underlying muscle tissue.

In winter, lower temperatures cause blood vessels to constrict, potentially affecting blood circulation and resulting in higher blood pressure. Massage therapy during colder months circulates fresh, oxygenated blood throughout the body, breaking up congested areas and providing muscles with the nutrients they need. Massage warms up muscles, enhancing blood circulation and addressing aches and pains caused by blood vessel constriction due to cold weather. Improved circulation also boosts energy levels.

Regarding massage lotions, tests from a study (Empirical research E.Petroons 1986, Literature study G.Claes 1990) reveal that massage initially causes a drop in skin and muscle temperature. Even after 10 minutes, there was a decline in skin temperature. However, the massage technique employed did not show a substantial deviation in the results regarding the reduction of tissue temperature. Various types of massages were considered in the study.

The use of warming products alongside massage demonstrates a significant increase in temperature. This combination not only counteracts

The intensity of the massage correlates with the significance of the temperature increase, with the most effective outcome observed in the combination of petrissage and Massage Lotion Plus. This not only compensates for the reduction in tissue and skin temperature but also leads to a significant, incremental temperature boost.
