Benefits of Massage

imageMassage has so many wonderful benefits that everyone should take advantage of, it has been shown to:

  • Alleviate muscle pain (ex: low back pain)
  • Promote relaxation through the release of tension held in the body
  • Relieve stress, anxiety, and depression
  • Improve circulation through delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues and vital organs
  • Improve joint flexibility and range of motion
  • Relax and soften injured, tired, hypertonic (tight) and overused muscles
  • Prepare and help athletes recover from strenuous workouts
  • Promote tissue regeneration through the breaking up of adhesions and scar tissue
  • Release endorphins which assist the body in healing itself
  • Improve the condition of the skin
  • Enhance immunity through stimulation of the lymphatic system (the body's natural defense system)
  • Reduce post-surgery adhesions and swelling

In addition, massage truly contributes to your overall health and well-being. It is particularly helpful if you suffer from back spasms, sciatica, tennis or golfer's elbow, hip impingement, rotator cuff issues, plantar fascitis, carpal tunnel, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, autism, ADHD, headaches and migraines, and many other injuries, disorders, and dysfunctions. Everyone's body is different and unique. I adjust every massage to what you need at the time through an assessment. Often your session may include more than one modality, depending upon what I find and communicate with you at the time of your massage.
