Benefits of Massage

Massage is the key to enhancing and improving health. It is a preventive measure for muscle maintenance and whole body function and is effective in relieving stress and improving physical performance.

* Stress: Massage therapy helps relieve the physical and psychological challenges that can lower one’s immune response to disease.

* Insomnia: Long, light gliding, and rhythmic massage strokes may overcome sleeplessness.

Through therapeutic massage we serve individuals experiencing pain and injury such as:

* Repetitive Stress Injuries: Massage may improve circulation, relax muscles involved, and reduce tightness that contributes to this condition.

* Headaches: Massage can reduce tension and help to relax affected neck and shoulder muscles.

* Neuralgia: Massage may help alleviate pain through reduction of anxiety and release of endorphins. Muscles are released thus reducing pinching on the nerve.

* Postural Deviations: Scoliosis, Kyphosis, and Lordosis sufferers find that massage can relax muscles affected thereby reducing the pull on the spine. This helps to normalize the muscle balance along the spine.

* Tendonitis: Massage decreases tension in offending muscle, helps break up fibrous adhesions in tendon fibers, and helps to reduce development of scar tissue.

* Disk Pathology: Massage helps indirectly by releasing tight muscles. This interrupts the cycle of pain and spasm that is caused by compression.

* Asthma: Massage is helpful in reducing stress, loosens intercostals, and allows the expansion of the chest cavity.

* Constipation: Abdominal massage may assist with movement or disrupt blockage.

* Sports: A pre-game massage can increase endurance and loosen an athlete before the event. Post-game massage helps to remove lactic acid and return homeostasis quickly.
