Benefits of Massage

Massage offers a drug-free, non-invasive approach based on the body's natural ability to heal itself. Some of the many benefits include:

(*Benefits as reported by ABMP)

· Decreases stress and blood pressure

· Promotes better sleep and a stronger immune system

· Increases circulation, allowing the body to pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs.

· Stimulates the flow of lymph, the body's natural defense system, against toxic invaders. For example, in breast cancer patients, massage has been shown to increase the cells that fight cancer.

· Relaxes and softens injured and overused muscles

· Reduces spasms and cramping

· Increases joint flexibility

· Releases endorphins - the body's natural painkiller - and is being used in chronic illness, injury and recovery from surgery to control and relieve pain.

· Reduces post-surgery adhesions and edema and can be used to reduce and realign scar tissue after healing has occurred.

· Improves range-of-motion and decreases discomfort for patients with low back pain.

· Relieves pain for migraine sufferers and decreases the need for medication.

· Provides exercise and stretching for atrophied muscles and reduces shortening of the muscles for those with restricted range of motion.

· Assists with shorter labor for expectant mothers, as well as less need for medication, less depression and anxiety, and shorter hospital stays.
