👉 Massage math, often rooted in biomechanics and physics, involves understanding the forces applied during massage to achieve optimal results. It leverages principles like Newton's laws of motion, particularly force and equilibrium, to manipulate soft tissues. For instance, applying a controlled force can stretch or compress muscles, promoting blood flow and reducing tension without causing harm. The math behind it includes calculating the optimal pressure to apply (considering tissue density and elasticity), the angle of force application for maximum effect, and the timing of releases to avoid overstretching. This precise application ensures that massage not only alleviates pain and improves flexibility but also respects the body's natural mechanics, making it a science-driven yet artful practice.
