Research has been extended 80 healthy men and women are physically active (age 20-25 years). Blood pressure and heart rate were made on the left arm automatic digital device (model HEM - 907). The device is intended to measure blood pressure. It is established that it is possible to verify the existing beliefs. This promotes more efficient use of massage therapy. Conclusions . Sports massage has an effect on hemodynamic changes, the increase (decrease) in blood pressure acceleration (deceleration) of the heart rate. It depends on what part of the body exposed to the massage procedure.
