Lazító

Lazító is a Hungarian term derived from lazítani, meaning to loosen or relax. As a noun or adjective, lazító describes something that relaxes, loosens, or softens, with the precise meaning depending on the context. In everyday language it often refers to things that relieve tension or calm the body and mind, while in technical contexts it can denote agents or processes that make materials, joints or mechanical parts easier to work with.

In health and therapy, lazító can describe actions or treatments aimed at reducing muscle tension and physical discomfort. Lazító masszázs, for example, is a relaxation-focused massage designed to ease muscle tightness. In cosmetics and personal care, lazító products such as creams or gels are marketed to help relax facial muscles or soothe tense skin, though their effects are cosmetic and not medical cures. In pharmacology, lazító may be used as a non-specific term for medicines with relaxing effects, such as muscle relaxants or sedatives; actual prescriptions specify their pharmacological class and indications.

In mechanical and industrial contexts, lazító szer or lazító olaj refers to substances that facilitate loosening of seized components or reduce friction, aiding disassembly, maintenance or operation. Such products are commonly used to loosen rusted bolts, valves or fittings and to improve reliability in assembly processes.

Etymology traces lazító to lazítás (relaxation or loosening) and highlights its role as a general descriptor across domains for agents, methods or products that ease tension, looseness or stiffness.
