Kneading
TENS
Kneading simulates the thumb fingers and palms of a real massage therapist. It
focuses on hypertension and stress and helps to break that down by returning full
range of motion and flexibility while treating tight muscles and decreases pain. It helps
improve blood circulation, thereby promoting overall body strength and well-being. It
helps reduce the tension in your muscles and helps tone the muscle after and before
workouts.
Striking
TENS & EMS
Striking massage simulates a series of light, brisk, striking actions applied with clenched
fists, used to produce stimulation. Striking is a specific massage technique used to
stimulate muscles before exercise to increase the flow of blood, temperature and tissue
elasticity.
