Massage Therapy for severely autistic son?

My sixteen year old has been responding really well to massage therapy. After a session, he really relaxes.

He gets a professional massage about once a week, but strangely, he seems to like MY massages better – he’s more relaxed when I give him a massage while we’re on the couch, rather than his professional massage therapist who takes care of him, usually. He seems to like scalp, shoulder, and neck massages best. Since he prefers my massages, I was wondering, are there any massage techniques I can use that may help him? Any special oils for massage?

Also, could you suggest some alternative calming techniques that I can use on him?
Thanks

He is probably responding differently to you because you already share a bond with him (as his mother). While it is nice that he enjoys those moments with you, the professional DOES-or at least should- have much more training medically and I suggest he gets his real massages from her (there’s a difference between a real massage and someone rubbing your back). You may actually injure him, whether its directly or in the long-term unless you have professional training too.
I have had a couple clients who have chronic back problems now from receiving massages from their spouses over the years. Again, while i think bonding with your son is great, and RUBBING his back is just fine and actually benefits him, it would be wise to stick with the professional.

As for calming techniques, try meditation (google and youtube will give you plenty of examples), deep breathing, warm baths with Epsom salts (any drugstore), some classical music-think mozart-has also been shown to help people with autism (and many other things, like seizures).
Good luck with everything!

Use of Massage Therapy

Massage is the manipulation of superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to enhance the function and promote relaxation and well-being.

Massages are a great way to release tension and stress and promote relaxation.
Mainly massage is often used to treat back pain, sleep disorder, and other stress-related disorders, Massage involves acting on and manipulating the body with pressure

 

Many different types of oils will be used including fractionated coconut oil, grape seed oil, olive oil, almond oil, macadamia oil, sesame oil, pecan oil, and mustard oil. Aromatherapy oils such as neroli oil and pine oil can also be mixed with carrier oils. Salts are also used in association with oils to remove dry skin.

Now-a-days massage therapy plays a vital part of the health care practices of many people living in today’s stress-heavy world. Knowing the importance of massage 71 percent of hospitals in America are now offering massage therapy for stress management, patient comfort, improved joint and muscle mobility, pregnancy, physical therapy, infant care, as part of their pre-operative regimes and to comfort those in hospice facilities.

There are many advantages if we have massage therapy:

  • Improves the health and nourishment of the skin
  • Improves circulation of blood
  • Relieves muscle tension and stiffness and decreases muscle pains and any nervous problems.
  • Relief from headaches

Till now we have seen the physical advantages of massage therapy .Now let’s have a look at emotional advantages:

  • Relives stress and anxiety
  • Good relaxation after day work or high pressures
  • Relieves the effects of depression
  • Improves sleep
  • Satisfies the need for caring, safe and nurturing touch

But while having your first massage you will feel a bit inconvenient feeling. But after massage therapy you will have a feeling of achievement or relaxation of mind. But be careful to have your first massage visit a good massage therapist. The pains in everyday life can be treated also with massage therapy.
