Massage Therapy is the art of moving the soft tissue of the body for therapeutic purposes. Massage can be used to alleviate muscle pain and tension, help reduce stress and decrease muscle spasms.
Massage therapy has a tranquilizing effect on the nervous system. In our society of over-stressed lifestyles, many of us are constantly in "flight or fight" mode. Massage can help to bring the body back into balance because it affects the "rest and digest" mode of our nervous system. |
