Massage and acupuncture can relieve back and body aches. Routine treatment can alleviate your muscle pain, inflammation and joint stiffness. However, many people experience surprising stubbornness during massage or acupuncture: stuffy nose and nose drops. Knowing how nasal congestion occurs during treatment and how to relieve symptoms can enhance your experience with the help of a body therapist.

Massage therapy and acupuncture put customers on ergonomically designed table On, you can put it on your stomach or come back. The massage table h serves as a detachable facial cradle and supports a prone position. The therapist will place you face down so that the back can be treated. Facial down massage and acupuncture stimulate two aspects of hyperemia: histamine release, which increases the release of fluid and sinus fluid from the nasal cavity.
Deep Breath
If you feel congested or feel a stuffy nose while receiving treatment, there are several options. At the end of the session, you can ask for a few minutes of massage specifically for the sinus area to relieve stress on the forehead and behind the eyes. Or you can ask for a drop of eucalyptus oil on a paper towel placed under the face support. Due to its aromatic camphor scent, eucalyptus can reduce nasal congestion and loose breathing during massage or acupuncture.
Heat and Steam
One of the simplest congestion solutions is to apply heat and steam to the sinus. There are different ways to provide this treatment. You can take a hot bath after the meeting; this can help relieve sinus pressure and break the congestion. A more targeted approach is to apply a layer of hot compress on your cheeks, nose and forehead (the basic towel will be fine), where sinus pressure will feel the most painful.
Relief
Some of these basic techniques can actually cleanse these channels before or after treatment. Another method is to use a Neti Pot. The Neti Pot is a simple water device that cleans the sinus passage and uses it to massage before use to reduce fluid and drainage. If you have severe allergies or severe congestion, receiving supine treatment may be more effective than staying in prone position.
