Massage Benefits

Massage can specifically address a number of health issues. Bodywork can:

• Enhance immunity by stimulating lymphatic flow—the body's natural defense system.
• Exercise and stretch weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.
• Increase joint flexibility.
• Reduce post-surgical adhesions and swelling.
• Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and facilitating healing.
• Bring oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs, improving circulation.
• Reduce spasms and cramping.
• Relax and soften injured, tired, and overused muscles.
• Release endorphins—amino acids that work as the body's natural painkiller.
• Reduce tension or muscle related migraine pain.
• Alleviate low-back, shoulder, hip, or knee pain and improve range of motion.
• Ease medication dependence.
