Can Massage benefit and improve posture?

Of course, it does. I will improve your posture through massage to help increase range of movement, reduce stiffness and increase mobility.

Poor posture can result in muscle tightness, joint stiffness and an increase in pain. There are many different ways in which posture can be poor and many different reasons why it occurs.
A persons posture can be kyphotic meaning the shoulders are brought forward giving the hunched effect, Lordotic meaning the stomach area is pushed forward making the buttock area stick out or have a flat back posture meaning there is no natural curve in the back.
All different types of poor posture can be caused by a variety of reasons, the most common reasons being work and exercise.
What are the most appropriate types of massage to improve posture?
The most common types of massage used include:
Deep Tissue Massage
Sports Massage
Swedish Massage

A deep tissue massage can be used to improve posture. A deep tissue massage focuses on the deeper layers of connective tissues and muscle fibres. Varied pressure is applied along the areas containing soft tissues, depending on the person's preference or the type of condition the therapist is treating. A deep tissue massage aims to reduce muscle tightness and restriction to help increase mobility and range of movement. Increasing mobility and range of movement allows posture to return to normal due to a decrease in restriction and a reduction in pain.

Posture is improved through sports massage. A sports massage is focused on areas containing soft tissues. Much like deep tissue massage, pressure used throughout a sports massage is varied depending on personal preference. A sports massage stimulates an improvement in blood flow to help increase muscle temperature. An increase in muscle temperature improves flexibility a a joint and elasticity of a muscle. An improvement in muscle and joint flexibility and elasticity increases range of movement and decreases pain and restriction. A decrease in pain and restriction enables posture to return to normal and increases relaxation.

A Swedish massage helps to improve posture. A Swedish massage can have a therapeutic effect on a person. A Swedish massage helps to relax a person both physically and mentally. A gentle or firm pressure can be used during a Swedish massage depending on person preference. A Swedish massage aims to relieve stress and tension within both muscles and joints. A build-up of stress and tension around the spinal area can cause stiffness and pain resulting in poor posture. Relieving stress and tension through Swedish massage help to reduce stiffness and decrease pain therefore improving posture as well as increasing relaxation.
