Massage Therapy : More Than Relaxing Benefits

Today, massage therapy clinics are becoming more popular

. I guess people are now very interested in healthy living.'

Massage therapy, indeed, is very beneficial. How? By the following ways:

- lowers blood pressure

- strengthens immune system

- hastens recovery and healing

- improves posture

- enhances attentiveness and flexibility

Pressure by massage therapy relaxes blood vessels, lowering blood pressure. It also lowers cortisol, a stress hormone, and prevents anxiety and depression. Overall, these prevent heart attack. Massage also relaxes muscles, making people more alive and energetic. It can also rejuvenate the body, meaning the hassles of daily life that can leave you "burned out" are given a "release", giving you a feeling of freshness.

The body has its cells for protection from all kinds of illnesses, and "protection program" is the body's cytotoxic capacity. Since massage lowers stress, it also helps in increasing this capacity as the cells for defense are increased. More cells, therefore can shield the body from sickness.

Faster recovery from injury is also another benefit as massage gives muscle relaxation and improved circulation, and so more nutrients are delivered throughout the body. The body has a system known as "the parasympathetic nervous system," and this system makes natural pain killers. Massage thus makes the body's natural pain killers active so it helps to fight pain and promotes healing.

Bad posture gives pain leading to the body's stress. In correcting this, massage eases tension in worn out muscles. It soothes pressure points. It enhances joint flexibility. How? By allowing the body to make more fluids and lubricants, massage can help a person's body in such a way that it can be positioned comfortably.

Massage also lowers stress, and so it improves attentiveness, and so this improves mathematical ability. A mind with more concentration can be more focused, and if it is more focused it can be free from lots of distractions.

Massage therapy is also recreational, but even when done for fun, benefits are present. Thus, massage therapy can be considered as a way of preventing bad health. It can also be a release from the pressures in life. It can be a chance to feel refreshed.

A study shows that HIV patients having regular massage sessions notice they have improved. Therefore, massage therapy is not mere fun; it is a way for achieving a healthy body and a sound mind. Massage therapy is definitely one of the many measures that can totally heal your well-being.
