Massage Therapy
The Benefits of Massage
If you are initially skeptical or shy under the skilled hands of an
expert massage therapist, you will soon delight as the tightness
begins to flow out of you, and the safe, warm, inviting atmosphere
envelopes you. The firm, gentle strokes help your muscles release
accumulated tension. Your neck softens and your shoulders fall.
Your spine unwinds and lengthens, and limbs become loose and free
as new energy flows through them. You feel good all over — gloriously
relaxed and invigorated. The only disappointment is that it is over.
However, floating out of the room — all aglow — you realize everyone
in this world deserves a good massage and you vow to return!
Massage reduces stress and fatigue and also imparts other healing benefits.
It reduces congestion and improves circulation, increasing oxygen and nutrient supplies to muscles, joints, organs and
the brain. It calms the nerves and stimulates elimination of metabolic waste, often speeding recovery from illness and
injuries. Massage also reduces pain due to spasm, inflammation and tissue damage. After a massage you feel better and
look better — the results generally seen in improved posture, skin tone and energy levels.
