Recently I have heard a few people say, “I love massages but I’m trying to limit the treatments because its not good for you to get addicted, which is not good for me”.

Massage is good for you, on so many levels!!!                                                                    

There is nothing wrong with feeling relaxed, and taking care of your body internally and externally, massage stimulates your muscles, brain, nerves and internal organs. Your body is constantly creating a need in the tissues for fresh oxygenated blood, which is compensated by good strong circulation and a proper breathing pattern.

The circulation is maintained by movements of the body which increase the metabolism which as a result, increases the need for new blood. Massage will result in the stale blood to be carried out of the tissues, sent back towards the heart and lungs while the body remains passive, this process is to make room for fresh blood to enter.

This indicates that massage is invaluable for anyone suffering from fatigue, disease, mental or emotional problems. In addition the release of tensions and toxins from the body, massage is most beneficial in creating a sense of relaxation, nourishing and a feeling of well being.
