WHAT
ARE HEALTH BENEFITS
OF MASSAGE THERAPY LONDON
Massage isn't capable of curing any serious or life-threatening
medical disorders - but it can provide welcome relief from the
symptoms of anxiety, tension, depression, insomia, and stress, as
well as back pain, headache, muscle pain and some forms of chronic
pain.
It's
also frequently recommended for the treatment of minor sports
injuries and repetitive stress injuries and for the enhancement of
physical conditioning. Some people find that it even relieves such
digestive disorders as constipation. There are many reasons to get a
massage and here are just a few of them:
|
|
Massage decreases stress level
Many of us find ourselves in a constant state of hyper-alertness as
we try to respond to the stresses of day-to-day living.
Massage acts directly on the nervous system, activating the opposite
of the "fight or flight syndrome" that we are so familiar
with.
Massage
relaxes painful and tight muscles. Massage
stretches and kneads tight and painful muscles, gently separating
individual fibers that may have become bound and knotted
together.
Once
your muscles are relaxed you may find that you can move more
freely, breathe more deeply, making it more likely for your muscles
to remain in their new-found flexible state.
Massage improves
joint
mobility and health. Massage can help increase range of motion in
your joints by releasing muscle tension around them. In addition,
circulation is also increased in the joints - actually stimulating
the healthy production of the joint's natural lubrication. |
|
Massage
can help ease secondary pain
Massage can relieve secondary pain that builds up around a primary
source of pain which can even sometimes last longer than the
original cause. Headaches brought about by tense shoulder and
neck muscles, pain and tingling that travels down your leg as a
result of tight low back muscles or arthritis are just a few
examples. Massage increases vitality, energy and alertness.

Massage increases circulation throughout
the body
This cleanses your body of waste products that can cause fatigue and
soreness. Massage promotes restful sleep. Many people find that
massage helps with accomplishing a full night's rest. Massage
helps the body and mind relax, and it's a great way to end a hectic
day.
Massage releases your natural endorphins that reduce pain and give
feel-good factor. Is a great way to stimulate the parasympathetic
nervous system and so lowering the pulse, slowing breathing and, in
general, chilling you out.
By assisting in breaking down of scar tissue & adhesions and
improved blood circulation massage speeds up the elimination of
waste products which in effect promotes healing.
It can also
benefit those suffering from PMT, menopausal symptoms, skin
complaints and in respiratory ailments, as well as being useful in
the treatment of depression and emotional traumas.
