Body Massage

Body Massage therapy has multiple benefits for nearly everyone! Whether you are a cancer patient looking for relief from nausea or you simply need stress relief, massage therapy can improve your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

Massage feels good to us because of the healing benefits it provides such as:

1. The improved circulation of blood to the lymph nodes, muscles, brain, and connective tissues of the body.

2. Stimulating the body to release “feel good” hormones that reduce pain, depression, and anxiety levels.

3. Naturally increasing the body’s own oxytocin levels, which gives us feelings of generosity, empathy, and social bonding.

4. Limits the activation of pain receptors in the body, such as in the muscles and spinal cord.

5. Stops the production of cytokines which cause inflammation.

6. Lowers the stress hormones epinephrine, cortisol, and norepinephrine.

7. Reduces blood pressure, relaxes the muscles, reduces stress, and slows the breathing
