Benefits of Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy has been used for thousands of years to improve the overall health of the client. Massage therapy is the manipulation of soft tissue (muscles, tendons and ligaments) to enhance the body’s healing and relaxation. Experts estimate that up to 90% of disease is related to stress. One of the many benefits of massage is stress reduction and relaxation.
The benefits of massage include:
- Alleviate back pain.
- Pressure on affected areas help loosen muscles and triggers healing in that area.
- Releasing and relaxing muscles that surround the affected area can also help reduce pain and promote healing.
- Enhance the immune system by stimulating lymph flow which aids in eliminating toxins.
- Relax and stretch weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.
- Help athletes prepare for, and recover from, extreme workouts.
- Improve the condition of the skin.
- Release certain chemicals causing the body to relax.
- Increase flexibility.
- Lessen depression and anxiety.
- Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and stretch marks.
- Pump oxygen and nutrients into tissues, improving circulation.
- Reduce post-surgery adhesions and swelling.
- Reduce spasms and cramping.
- Relax and soften injured, tired, and overused muscles.
- Release endorphins and amino acids that work as the body’s natural painkiller.
- Relieve migraine pain.
- Indirectly aid healthy weight loss.
