Activate self-healing of the body

Foot massages & foot reflexology


Our feet reflect our body and are like a map for our entire nervous system. Through precise treatment of the specific pressure points, the body as a whole can be relaxed and activated. Our massage therapists at Muscularia in the Basel region are able to target these pressure points and achieve lasting results due to years of experience and regular training. If you have any questions, our massage team in the Basel region will be happy to answer them at any time and explain the methods used in practice.

Lymphatic drainage & massage of the lymph nodes


In addition to regular muscular tension, congestion in the tissues can also cause pain and discomfort. With a manual lymphatic drainage or lymphatic massage in the Basel region, you can experience mental lightness and soon enjoy a significant improvement in your well-being thanks to rhythmic and stroking movements along the lymphatic channels of your body. These flowing movements reduce tissue congestion and promote the removal of accumulated lymph fluid. Thus, after a few intensive treatments, you will gain a new awareness of life and experience a new lightness in your everyday movements.

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), also called manual decongestive therapy, is an application that evolved from classical massage. It is an extremely effective therapy. Especially patients with heart disease or kidney dysfunction benefit from it. In addition to the decongestive effect, MLD has a calming and pain-relieving effect and has a positive effect on the immune system.

Release tension with trigger points

Trigger point therapy & trigger point massage


Trigger point therapy relieves tension and can be a sustainable treatment method for tense or "stiff" neck, for example, which is especially familiar to people working at a desk or computer in the office. The muscle points are so-called trigger points, these are responsible for the suppleness and functionality of the muscles. They give the body its shape. Fascia treatments can help with movement pain as well as widespread feelings of tension and strengthen your body posture. Slow and deep techniques are used to activate tense trigger points through professional trigger point therapy in the Basel region.

Connective tissue massages & function of connective tissue


The connective tissue as a whole has several different functions. In addition to the main task of enveloping and protecting organs, it serves as a conductive structure of body pathways. The connective tissue consists of extracellular matrix, also called intercellular mass, and is used for the transport of various substances. It is the largest interconnected tissue of our body and thus reaches every single corner. The connective tissue supplies our body with nutrients and transports cell excretions back. Thus, the connective tissue performs both a supplying and a detoxifying function. In addition, the connective tissue conducts nerve impulses. This is a very important function, since, for example, impulses for movement or pain are passed on. Another important function is the continuous stabilization of the PH value in the blood and the regulation of the body temperature.

A disorder in the connective tissue is therefore not only a cosmetic change, but can also have an influence on important bodily functions. Most people associate connective tissue with visual values such as stretch marks and cellulite, but there is much more behind the connective tissue. A connective tissue massage in the Basel region can be used for cellulite treatment, but can also successfully treat many other complaints.
