Potential Risks and Side Effects of Tantra Massage
• I am aware that Tantra Bodywork benefits include pain relief, relaxation, blood pressure moderation, stress reduction, and anxiety management.
• By signing this document, I hereby confirm that I have been fully informed and I accept and agree fully to all the health risks mentioned henceforth. Also, I fully accept and agree to participate in any of the sessions or courses with full knowledge and awareness of the health risks and possible damages mention below:
• Blood Clots The American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) cautions about the risks of massaging a client with high blood pressure. The pressure exerted during a massage could potentially cause arterial plaque to rupture and release blood clots into the system. Though the risk is low for such an event, blood clots can travel to the heart or brain. Clients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a condition that causes blood clots to develop in the deep veins of the body, are especially at risk. Massage greatly increases the risks of a clot being released and traveling to the lungs. • Nerve Damage Some forms of massage, such as deep tissue massage (including Tantra Massage), Structural Integration, and Rolfing require the massage therapist to exert pressure past the skin layer in order to manipulate muscles and connective tissues. During the sessions, courses as participant and in Tantra Massage teacher training if a participant does not communicate and does not give or receive proper feedback from another participant or from teachers, assistants, or staff, this may bring about the exertion of too much pressure, resulting in temporary nerve damage to a participant. • Infectious Skin Conditions A number of infectious conditions of the skin can be transmitted during massage, despite the best efforts to screen participants within reason. These include herpes, cold sores, shingles rashes, warts, and ringworm. Likewise, as in the case of warts, during Tantra training, people may unknowingly spread the contagion from one area of a person’s body to another or to themselves. • Temporary Side Effects Side effects, otherwise known as purification effects, may include temporary pain, soreness, discomfort, bruising, swelling, and a sensitivity or allergy to massage oils. Also, nausea, vomiting, temporary or longer term diarrhea, various body discomfort symptoms, emotional expressions, and emotional release may exhibit, among other conditions.
