Some of the many clinically proven benefits of regular massage are:
1) Lower Cortisol & Stress Levels...
Stress wreaks havoc on our health, compromising the immune system and making us more susceptible to illness and injury. High-stress levels can also lower energy levels, cause sleep problems and fatigue, induce headaches, and affect everything from your appetite to your focus. Left unchecked, rampant stress can raise your risk for a range of serious health issues, including heart disease, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes. Regular visits to a massage therapist help moderate stress levels, maintaining your overall health.
2) Boosted Immunity... Regular massages support your immune system, fending off illness to keep you going strong. Recent research has shown that receiving a massage increases the presence of lymphocytes, disease-fighting white blood cells that play an instrumental role in your body’s defense system. It also reduces the immune-depleting stress hormone, cortisol, as well as inflammation-causing cytokines.
3) Helps the Body's Natural Healing Processes...
From athletic injuries to daily wear and tear, your body carries all kinds of tension. When you injure a muscle or create a pattern (sitting for hours at a computer can substantially wear down your body), your muscles form unhealthy tension patterns, which inhibit your fullest function. Massages support the body’s amazing ability to heal itself, reducing inflammation and working to untangle detrimental tension patterns.
