Top 5 Benefits of Massage

Massage is a wonderful way of healing and is a natural instinct in all of us. When we hurt ourselves or feel pain, we massage or rub the area affected. Massage therapy dates back thousands of years and, not only does it feel good, it also offers a number of health benefits.

Owning a massage chair allows you to experience those benefits without the expense or hassle of visiting a therapist. You can enjoy regular massages without even having to leave your home.

Whilst there is a long list of the health benefits of massage, here we list the top 5 experienced by many of our thousands of customers.

 

1. NATURAL PAIN RELIEF

Massage is a natural way to improve your health and, in some cases, it can even reduce the need for medication and painkillers. By releasing endorphins, which are one of the body’s natural painkillers, and increasing blood flow to the muscles, reduced pain and better range of motion can be achieved. The nerves and muscles are all connected, affecting the entire body. Massage helps to improve blood flow throughout the body which, in turn, helps to ease pain.

 

2. REDUCED STRESS LEVELS

Many people lead extremely busy lives and deal with a lot of stress on a daily basis. Over time, that stress builds up and results in muscle tension and high levels of stress hormones within the body. Massages assists in reducing muscle tension brought on by stress, relieving tension headaches, relaxing the body, improving mental clarity and reducing anxiety.

 

3. REDUCED MUSCLE TENSION

Sore, tight muscles often result in poor posture and reduced flexibility. By loosening the muscles, posture can be improved. Massage helps to stimulate the body’s ligaments, muscles and joints, helping the body to heal on its own. This also results in a better range of motion and flexibility. Muscle cramps and spasms can also be relieved by manipulating and stretching the muscles.

 

4. IMPROVED CIRCULATION

Poor circulation causes a build-up of lactic acid in the muscles, often leading to muscle aches and pains. Fatigue, swelling and numbness can also be symptoms of poor circulation. By improving circulation of the blood throughout the body, this ensures nutrients and oxygen reach joints, muscles and important organs of the body. Lymph flow is also improved, which helps ensure the body eliminates waste products.

 

5. IMPROVED HEALTH AND WELLNESS

Massage is proven to help reduce your heart rate and lower blood pressure, thus decreasing your risk of other health problems. Studies even prove that people who have regular massages have a better immune system and are less likely to get sick. Through regular massage, you may soon begin to notice that your sleep will also improve, giving you more energy and allowing your body to rest and reset. By incorporating massage into your daily routine, you can experience these health benefits and more.
