In my work as a licensed massage therapist, I use a unique combination of therapeutic massage techniques, aromatherapy and/or other products and energy balancing to assist you in achieving the benefits I have described below. These benefits are enhanced and increased when you have regular and frequent massage therapy treatments.
As many of you know, more and more research is showing that almost all diseases are linked to stress. With that information in mind, it makes sense that stress negatively effects many functions of your body. It can induce the fight or flight response within your body. This response is meant to help you survive if you are threatened physically in a life or death situation. However, when this response is experienced over an extended period of time, it is detrimental to your health.
Therapeutic Massage helps with stress relief in several ways. It helps you release mental and physical tension holding habits. This, when combined with specific therapeutic massage techniques and products, enhances your ability to relax and recover from some of the effects of this stress. Muscle tension and pain are reduced, which increases blood flow to constricted areas and helps release compression on nerves. Also, lymph circulation is improved, which removes toxins and increases immunity. Another increase is the release of endorphins, which are a natural pain killer produced in your body. Massage Therapy can also help to reduce heart rate and blood pressure. You are able to find that peaceful place where everyday worries are gone. All of these benefits lead to you being able to feel complete relaxation, pain reduction and a sense of calm and balance.
As you can see from the information presented above, therapeutic massage plays a crucial role in counteracting the adverse effects of stress. Therapeutic massage is a positive way to manage chronic stress in your life. Please allow me to help you take advantage of the opportunity to boost the physical, mental and emotional resources that support you in doing all the things you want and need to do in your life.
