Urban Nirvana Spa & Salon posted an online article listing 10 of the most common benefits associated with receiving massage therapy.
“Massage therapy can relieve all sorts of ailments – from physical
pain, to stress and anxiety,” the article states. “People who choose to
supplement their healthcare regimen with regular massages will not only enjoy a
relaxing hour or two at the spa, but they will see the benefits carry through
the days and weeks after the appointment.”
The benefits described by Urban Nirvana include Reduce
Stress (“A relaxing day at the spa is a great way to unwind and de-stress”); Improve
Circulation (“Loosening muscles and tendons allows increased blood flow throughout
the body”); Reduce Pain (“Massage therapy is great for working out problem
areas like lower back pain and chronic stiffness”); Improve Flexibility (“Massage
therapy will loosen and relax your muscles, helping your body to achieve its
full range of movement potential”); and Enhance Immunity (“Stimulation of the
lymph nodes re-charges the body’s natural defense system”), among other
benefits.
