What is Massage Therapy?
Massage is a manual therapy that manipulates the soft tissues and decreases muscle tension, pain, stress and depression.
The Many Benefits of Massage
Massage makes you feel and perform better. It will also:
Increase circulation
Enhance the immune system
Promote nervous system functioning
Reduce blood pressure
Relieve pain and muscle tension
Improve mood, intellectual reasoning and job performance
Has a positive effect on conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, diabetes and migraine headaches
The Power of Touch
The simple act of placing the hands on the body can itself encourage a person to thrive. Many studies have illustrated that without physical touch babies (human or animal) will not thrive and may not even survive. Touch also has a positive effect on caregivers. For example, mothers who regularly have a great deal of physical closeness with their babies experience postpartum depression to a far lesser degree, and elderly caregivers feel a decrease in stress, anxiety and depression when they touch and are touched.
