Massage Therapy
Massage therapy works directly to remove trauma from the muscles and fascia. Massage is recommended for relief of stress/tension, muscle rehabilitation, improved joint mobility, relief of pain/spasm, improved circulation, lymphatic drainage, and relaxation.
A good basic massage goes much deeper than your skin. It can dilate blood vessels, improve circulation, and relieve congestion throughout your body. Massage can act as a mechanical cleanser, pushing waste products and toxins throughout the lymph system. It can also improve muscle tone and help prevent atrophy from inactivity.
When combined with a suitable diet and exercise, massage can help break down subcutaneous fat cells in tissues. Massage is also mentally and emotionally liberating, having lasting effects on your mental state. Some of the most common benefits of massage are stress reduction, improved circulation, and improved ability to relax.
