• Lower stress The long-term effects of stress can take emotional and physical tolls. Massage therapy may relieve stress and conditions associated with it, such as tension headaches.
• Increase immune function Medical research indicates that massage therapy can help boost immune system strength by increasing the activity level of the body’s natural “killer T cells,” which fight off viruses.
• Boost mental health and wellness Research suggests that symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression (all associated with mental health) may be directly affected with massage therapy.
• Manage pain Pain can negatively affect a person’s quality of life and impede recovery from illness or injury. Recent findings highlight the role of massage in pain management.
