The benefits of massage are numerous to both parties. I am an experienced Remedial Massage therapist and as that person I am going to help to pass on the information that I have inside my head.I have found as I have worked in the massage field that many people enjoy the touch they receive from a massage but often are not aware of the benefits that massage gives to our bodies.
Massage is a wonderful way to decrease stress and anxiety from our loved one's body.
In the modern world you can agree, that we are wound up to perform on many levels compared to the lifestyle our parents and their parents lived.
We have of course in our life, labor saving devices. The devices have often enabled us to work longer and rest less.
We now have computers at home (laptops in our bedrooms), at our friends and work colleagues constant beck and call with text messages, face-book and phone calls.
Don't get me wrong I also have these items in my life but they have not helped with the ability to "switch off and relax" easily.
We need to "book" in our relaxation time as necessarily as our gym time.
The need to incorporate into our lives the training to unwind and relax as a "learned" habit is much needed in this busy world we all now live in.
Regular massage can help to lower raised blood pressure, improve sleeping problems, relieves headaches and muscular pain and improve the functions of the skin, digestive systems and lungs.
Of course the power of touch is fundamentally the greatest pleasure as the slow caring strokes are recognized by professionals as a benefit to pain relief both physically and mentally.
