Massage Therapy has been known for centuries to reduce tension and ease sore muscles.Therapeutic Massage is an age-old remedy and health practice.Many healing systems including this culture,use hands-on-therapy to soothe aches and pains and facilitate the body's own healing powers.
Stress is an inevitable part of life.However,when we do not successfully recognize,divert or process the stressorsthat affect us,our body's reaction becomes negative and goes into a phase called the "Flight and Fight Response",When massage is experienced,the body creates "The Relaxation Response".This response reverses the damaging physiological effects of distress,resulting in slower heart rate,lower blood pressure and better circulation to internal organs.Massage breaks the accumulation of stress-related symptoms.
