Resolve to Reduce Your Stress in the New Year...
by Amy Mallat, LMT
 At the start
of the new year, many of us resolve to get healthier—take better care
of ourselves, eat better, exercise more. One way to better health
that actually feels good is adding a regular therapeutic massage to
your routine.
Freedom
from pain is the most obvious benefit from regular massage. Common
pain problems include neck, shoulder and back pain, migraine
headaches, and carpal tunnel pain—wrist pain caused by repetitive
motions like typing or other hand-intensive activities. Pain
complaints like these can lead to lost sleep, missed days at work, and
even dependence on pain medications. All of these pain issues can be
treated with therapeutic massage.
Everyone
could use less stress and more relaxation. Therapeutic massage is
great for relaxing the body and counteracting the harmful effects of
stress. Massage moves built-up stress hormones out of muscles and
organs and into the blood stream, so the body can flush them out.
Therapeutic massage also brings reduced anxiety, a renewed sense of
calm and feelings of well being.
Massage
has a powerful effect on the immune system. During a massage,
circulation is increased, pumping oxygen into tissues and organs. The
lymphatic system, the body’s natural defense system, is also
stimulated. White blood cell and natural killer cell counts are
increased after a massage, giving the body more power to fight
infections.
Take
advantage of massage therapy’s benefits and start your year with less
pain and stress, fewer colds and flus, and a more relaxed outlook on
life.
