Massage is a term used to describe rubbing, pressing, and manipulating your skin, tendons, ligaments, and muscles. It can range from light stroking to deep pressure. Even so, regular massage is much more than just a relaxing and pampering treat. It can boost your health and well-being in the following ways:
 
It works as pain relief
 
Massage helps in working out issues such as lower back pain and chronic stiffness. A professional therapist can target accurately the source of the pain and apply the appropriate techniques to ease the aches. Besides, medical research has proven that regular massage can ease or even alleviate headaches, migraines, and joint pains.
 
It eases stress
 
The long-term effects of stress can take physical and emotional tolls. Massage can lower the level of stress hormones in your body. It also stimulates the release of endorphins in the body, helping you feel energized, happy, and at ease. Furthermore, if you are dealing with anxiety, one study suggests that massage can help ease the symptoms significantly.
 
It enhances blood circulation
 
Stimulating soft tissues and loosening tendons and muscles allow increased blood flow in your body. That can regulate your blood pressure while providing healthier skin, improved cell growth, and better organ functionality.
 
It boosts immunity
 
Massage can help release toxins through the lymphatic systems. A research group found that a single 45-minute massage can change the body’s immune response. Thus, getting a massage regularly is a great way to strengthen your immune system. Besides, it boosts your white blood cell count, which plays a significant role in defending your body from illnesses.
 
It improves sleep
 
Studies indicate a strong link between regular massage and reduced insomnia. That can be because massage encourages relaxation and boost your mood, while relieving muscle-aches which promote more restful sleep.
