Commonly during an upper back massage is skin rolling. Skin rolling involves picking up and rolling the skin between the fingers and thumbs. Skin rolling helps loosen tight muscles and fascia. Fascia is a thin layer of connective tissues located beneath the skin. When the temperature of muscle is increased, the elasticity and flexibility of the muscles is also improved. An improvement of tissue elasticity and flexibility therefore results in a reduction of muscles tightness, stress and tension. Skin rolling also helps improve the blood circulation around the body which aids in the maintenance of healthier muscles.
