Surprising Benefits of Massage

Going beyond Stress Relief

A soothing massage can help you unwind, but that’s not all. It is generally considered part of complementary and alternative medicine. Studies of the benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment not only for reducing stress, but pain and muscle tension, along with soothing anxiety and depression. Here are other benefits you get to experience while getting a massage.
If you’re frequently tortured by migraine pain, you might consider a massage to help cut down the pain. Massages can also counteract the imbalance caused from sitting, which means you can keep your desk job, as long as you schedule a regular massage. Research indicates that massage therapy can reduce inflammation of skeletal muscle damaged through exercise.
Massages also stimulate blood flow, which is why regular gentle rubbing and kneading might keep your face looking healthy and radiant.
