THE BENEFITS OF MASSAGE

1. Massage increases circulation and moves the blood through the body three times faster than usual.  This normalizes and improves arterial circulation.

2.  Massage increases the mobility of the chest and promotes lung expansion; thus, developing respiratory muscles.

3.  Massage assists digestion by gently propelling the contents of the colon in the natural direction and quickening cellular activity.

4.  Massage stimulates lymphatic circulation.

5.  Massage improves blood supply to the brain and nervous system.

6.  Massage breaks up toxins and lactic acid (bacterial fermentation) which accumulate in the muscle tissue.

7.  Massage affects the body much the sames as exercise, but without the fatigue.  As well, massage can relieve tight sore muscles caused from "overdoing" a sport or extra ordinary activity.

Massage is not only good for you, it gives you a feeling of being good to yourself.

If you deal with a high level of stress, use massage to relax and revitalize your mind and body.

The AMA (American Medical Association) reports that over 80% of the diseases we suffer are stress related.

The more often the body is given an opportunity to operate in a relaxed state, the more apt it is to operate this way naturally.

I recommend monthly massage therapy treatments to maintain quality living by significantly reducing the cumulative stress patterns that are unavoidable in each of our lives today.
