Massage therapy is the manipulation of muscles and soft tissues, using various hand techniques such as kneading, pressing, or rubbing. It’s commonly known to provide relaxation.
However, massage therapy has more benefits than that. Here are the top 5 proven health benefits of massage therapy.
1. BOOSTS IMMUNE FUNCTION
Massage therapy increases the production of white blood cells, which helps fight viruses that enter the body.
2. REDUCES STRESS AND ANXIETY
Massage therapy stimulates the body to produce endorphin, serotonin, and dopamine. These neurotransmitters that help relieve stress and pain, prevent depression, and lets you feel pleasure.
3. EASES MUSCLE PAINS
Massage therapy helps relax your muscle tissue, reducing muscle spasms and nerve compressions.
4. IMPROVES BLOOD CIRCULATION
The paced pressure from kneading and stroking the body helps improve blood and lymph fluid circulation. It also aids in ridding the body of metabolic waste products.
5. IMPROVES SLEEP QUALITY
Since massage therapy helps relieve pain and reduces stress, you'll feel more relaxed and have a better sleep quality.
