MASSAGE HAS HEALTH BENEFITS!

If you think of massage as an indulgent, expensive luxury, it’s time you rethink with the following facts.

Fortunately massage has become more commonplace and affordable. Studies show that it provides you with many health benefits. Recent studies have suggested that massage is an excellent technique for relaxation that improves the body’s response to stress. The massage therapists at Chiropractic Rehabilitation Wellness Center have had patients report improved sleeping and dealing with their stresses better following a therapeutic massage.

In addition, a massage may improve immune function, stimulate muscle tissue and encourage blood flow through the areas that are worked. Improved blood flow aids in healing by reviving sore muscles, and relieving pain especially in areas like the neck, shoulders and back. Proper blood flow also brings nutrients to the area and removes cellular waste.

Many people have experienced benefits for conditions including anxiety, circulatory problems, depression, headache, insomnia, sports injuries and all types of stress. Combining an hour massage with your chiropractic or acupuncture has also shown to accelerate healing of musculoskeletal conditions.
