Rejuvenate Your Body But Also Promote Healing Using A Relaxing Hand Massage

Hand massage therapy was developed by an acupuncturist in Korea in when he discovered that the whole of the body could be mapped onto one's hand

. He then developed a form of hand acupuncture (whose concept that the body is reflected onto the hand) was the basis for today's non-acupuncture hand massage therapy.

So how does a hand massage reduce stress? During the process, endorphins are released that realign the symmetry of your body. Not only is a hand massage a wonderful way to relax your hands, but it heals them by:Increase the circulation in your hands;Revive your skin's elasticity;Relieve stiffness and increase flexibility;Mobilize your joints;Strengthen the muscle tone in your hands;Prevent RSI.In today's world, the popularity of hand massage therapy has increased to combat the stress and strain placed on our hands by all the new hand-intensive activities such as texting, video gaming, computer keyboards, etc. Although traditionally less popular than foot massages, hand massage therapy is built on similar theories and techniques to provide some proven benefits of its own.If you use your hands a lot during any given day - and most of us do in our workplace - you probably experience the tension and pain associated with your work. If you spend a majority of your day typing - for example - a hand massage can relieve the effects brought on by excessive use of a computer keyboard. In just 5 - 10 minutes, one can experience much-needed relief; this benefit only compounds the popularity of hand massage therapy among people of all ages. If you are familiar with the term "reflexology", you know that all the points in our body are connected to various internal organs and other parts of our body. A hand massage, therefore, not only relieves ailments our our arms and hands, but those associated with poor blood circulation, pressure in the neck/head and arthritis. Each area of the body is thought to have "access" through different regions found in our hands and feet. Hand massage therapy - offered by many massage therapists and spas - defines specific zones, pressure points and energy centers located on the palm and back of your hands and targets those areas to provide relief to different organs and functions of the body. Below are just a few of the health issues that can be treated by hand massage therapy:Symptoms associated with cold and flu;Back pain;Problems with our immune system;Addiction and craving;Sexual energy reflexes;Mental stress and energy.Though do-it-yourself hand massage is popular, having it done by a licensed massage therapist provides the maximum benefit. Nothing can compare to the hands of a professional. by: Hector Espinoza
