Massage is one of the most ancient forms of healing.
The first writings on massage showed up around 2000 BC.
Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress.
While eliminating anxiety and pressure altogether in this fast-paced world may be idealistic, massage can, without a doubt, help manage stress.
Nowadays, scientific research studies clearly show the many positive benefits of massage on our health and well-being.
e.g clinical studies have found that massage relieves chronic back pain more effectively than other treatments (including acupuncture and conventional medical care for this condition)
and, in many cases, costs less than other treatments for this
common health problem.

How Does Massage Therapy Work?
Most types of massage affect the body in a similar way.
When muscles are overworked, body waste products such
as lactic acid can accumulate, causing soreness, stiffness,
and even muscle spasms. Massage in general improve
blood and lymph circulation and brings fresh oxygen and
other nutrients to the affected tissues. This helps to flush
out the toxins and enhance recovery.
Tense muscles may also compress blood vessels and
stretch nerves, restricting blood flow and causing pain.
As the affected area is massaged, the muscles gradually
release their strangle hold on the irritated nerves, and
the pain eases. The same mechanisms also make
massage helpful in the recovery process for an injured muscle.
In addition, massage has been shown to increase
the body's production of pain-killing endorphins and
the mood-altering hormone serotonin. It can also slow
the release of the stress hormone cortisol. For this reason,
massage is often prescribed as an adjunctive therapy for
people whose immune systems are compromised by stress.
