适度的压力似乎是按摩治疗效果的必要条件。我们回顾了比较中压按摩和轻压按摩的研究，结果表明，只有中压按摩才能促进婴儿的生长发育，减少成人的压力。压力感受器的刺激导致迷走神经活动的增加，反过来，似乎介导了按摩疗法的各种益处。
Moderate pressure appears to be necessary for massage therapy effects. Studies comparing moderate and light pressure massage are reviewed and they suggest that growth and development are enhanced in infants and stress is reduced in adults, but only by moderate pressure massage. The stimulation of pressure receptors leads to increased vagal activity which, in turn, seems to mediate the diverse benefits noted for massage therapy.
