Therapeutic massage can help heal body and soul
Let's face it, at some point during the past week, you have
experienced some degree of stress. Stress increases blood pressure, accelerates
the growth of cancer cells, speeds the process of male-pattern baldness and
slows the healing time of the common cold and even influenza.
I would be willing to bet that at some point in the past month, you have had at
least one of the following: aching muscles, a stiff neck, a tight lower back, a
headache, or delayed recovery from your workout.
Any of these conditions can be reduced or eliminated by regular
therapeutic massage. Massage therapy is both simple and complex. Simple because
it is a relaxing and effective way to dramatically improve your
health. Complex because there is enough material for a massage therapist to
learn to encompass a master's degree.
Therapeutic massage involves manipulation of the soft tissue structures of
the body to prevent and alleviate pain, discomfort, muscle spasm, and stress --
and, to promote health and wellness. Massage therapy improves functioning of
the circulatory, lymphatic, muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems and may
improve the rate at which the body recovers from injury and illness.
At Seacrest Health and Wellness Center, our massage therapists are skilled at making
the massage experience both enjoyable and therapeutic. Call today to see how
much therapeutic massage can help your life.
