Do you really know what the benefits of having a Massage Treatment? Here at Martinus Massage we are experts in not only massage and healing treatments, but in all manners of health and wellness.
Here are just ten of the possible benefits of having a full body massage:
1. Makes you feel beautiful - The increased blood flow improves tour skin tone and reduces visible and no-visible signs of aging.
2. Makes you feel happy - During a massage the “happiness hormones” serotonin and endorphins get released into the bloodstream, combating feelings of depression.
3. Makes you sleep better - The same hormones are also responsible for inducing a good night’s sleep.
4. Makes you feel calmer - Levels of the stress hormone cortisol decrease during a massage, thereby lowering stress and anxiety.
5. Can reduce chronic pain - The above-mentioned happiness hormones are also the body’s very own, natural pain relievers.
6. Can assist in weight loss – This one may sound hard to believe, but the increased blood circulation can aid the body’s metabolism, naturally, which in turn can help keep you trim.
7. Can make you healthier - Reducing cortisol production and increasing serotonin and endorphin release boosts the immune system.
8. Helps with headaches – This is one our clients love. Massage relieves muscle spasms, tension and can help loosen chronically tight muscles. This can also help with chronic headaches and migraines.
9. Helps with high blood pressure - A consistent massage therapy regimen can decrease diastolic and systolic blood pressure.
10.
Helps counteract all of the sitting we do - Massage can relax and correct postural imbalances bought on by the amount of time we spend in the sitting position.
