Massage Therapy
"Massage therapy has systemic effects. It influences your immune system, your endocrine system, your cardiovascular system. Regarding what physicians need to know about massage therapy, the first and most important thing is that it works, that they should recommend it to their patients."
-Deepak Chopra, M. D.
Benefits of massage include:
 | Relaxation |
| Reduced stress and anxiety levels |
| Overall sense of "well being" |
| Increased energy |
| Increased productivity |
| Relieves muscle tightness, soreness and pain |
| Releases muscle spasms and maintains muscle tone |
| Increases range of motion at neck, shoulders, lower back and hips |
| Eliminates toxins and lactic acids from the muscles |
| Shortens recovery time from injury or exercise |
| Improves sleep patterns |
| Reduces fatigue |
Note: All clients are encouraged to drink plenty of water following a massage. Massage releases toxins and lactic acids. Drinking water assists the body to eliminate these quickly.
