Benefits of Massage Therapy | Massage & Health
Neurological, psychological and physiological science show that there is such a thing as healing massage. You may book an “anti stress massage” or a “back pain massage” because your gut instinct tells you it will help. Evidence shows that, when it comes to wellness massage is a vital aid to:
- boosting physical and mental performance
- stress relief
- pain relief
- improving sleep
- protecting the immune system
- reducing blood pressure
- easing inflammation
- enhancing brain function
- enhancing general well being
Deep Tissue Massage Benefits
Deep Tissue Massage is about easing pressure gradually into the fascial restrictions on various planes of the multi-dimensional body, from superficial fascia to deep fascia and deep muscle bellies. External manipulation of soft tissue creates gradual physiological change – (e.g. reducing tissue viscosity, increasing biogenesis of new mitochondria to stimulate muscle repair, etc) – inducing a corresponding relaxation, which:
- relieves fascial restrictions
- restores muscle strength and flexibility
- improves posture, power and energy
If you feel relaxed, stronger and physically more confident then psychologically you will be happier and calmer: Massage can help deliver all of those benefits.
