Benefits of massage therapy

There are many benefits associated with massage therapy.

• Emotional relief

Suffering from chronic pain takes a huge toll on your emotional state of mind. Massage greatly benefits and relieves this emotional toll. With massages, studies have shown that you could have improved sleep patterns, less anxiety and a heightened feeling of relaxation. Having more restful sleep also means an improvement in mood.

• Pain relief

There’s a multitude of different ways that massages help with pain relief. For example, massages help with soreness and stiffness of the muscles. They also help in injury recovery and rehabilitation as massages have a positive effect on our muscle’s strength and swelling since it reduces inflammation.

During a massage, blood flow increases to the injured muscles, thus helping to reduce stiffness and increase flexibility. As your body is also relaxed during a massage, it not only increases endorphins, it also increases serotonin and dopamine levels in the body. These hormones will help to not only calm the nerves but also deal with pain management.
