Harvard Health calls Massage Therapy:
“The Healing Power of Touch”
Massage may be an occasional treat or special occasion gift, and Harvard Health says that this type of regular therapy could be a natural way to stay healthy and pain-free.
Many people believe that they have to live with pain and discomfort while aging, but Massage Therapy actually reduces inflammation in the body which is a factor of pain and discomfort. Reducing your inflammation reduces your pain and provides more mobility and flexibility so you can continue with an active lifestyle.
Massage has many other benefits:
Anxiety Reducer: Massage therapy helps to release endorphins in your body, helping you feel happy, energized and at ease.
Alleviate Muscle Soreness and Increase Flexibility: Massage therapy loosens and relaxes your muscles, helping your body to achieve its full range of movement potential.
Stress Reducer: A relaxing day at the spa is a great way to unwind and de-stress. After a massage, you will feel relaxed and at ease for days.
Reduce Low Back Pain: Massage therapy is great for working out paint and chronic stiffness. Our Massage Therapists can accurately target your pain and help you achieve the perfect massage regimen.
Help with Surgery Pain: Massage therapy is a great way to reduce post surgery healing time and reduce scar tissue build up.
Improve Circulation: Loosening muscles and tendons allows increased blood flow. Improving circulation can reduce fatigue and pain management.
Eliminate Toxins: Stimulating the soft tissues of your body will help you to release toxins through your blood and lymphatic systems.
Improve Immunity: Stimulation of the lymph nodes re-charges the body’s natural defense system.
Improve Sleep: A massage will encourage relaxation and will boost your mood. Going to bed with relaxed and loosened muscles promotes a more restful sleep.
