Massage and Relaxation The essential way to end any workout, massage and relaxation exercises can help to dissipate lactic acid and reduce the potential for delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), as well as encouraging the heart rate to return to its normal resting rate. Massage can also help increase circulation and reduce cellulite. The massage exercises in this protocol can be performed daily on the Power Plate® machine.
