Therapeutic Massage Helps Healing

In addition to feeling great afterwards, research shows that therapeutic massage stimulates a physical response that aids in healing and preventing illness. Massage therapy stimulates the nervous system, producing a number of medical benefits including:

  • Increases endorphin secretion, helping to manage pain and reduce stress.
  • Stimulates tissue activity and a healing response.
  • Releases nerve entrapment.
  • Reduces nerve root compression caused by muscle dysfunction.
  • Calms the nervous system to help reduce, anxiety, depression, and restlessness.
  • Promotes better sleep.
