Emotional Benefits of Massage

I have a tag line, "Healing Mind, Body & Spirit." As a massage therapist most people understand the healing body part but often don't fully understand the mind and spirit aspect. Massage therapy is so beneficial for us all on all three levels. Regular massage therapy relaxes aching muscles, relieves pain and stress but it also affects our brain, our emotions. When you receive a massage, your brain not only releases endorphins, your body's natural pain killers, it releases serotonin and dopamine, your "feel good" chemicals. These help alleviate anxiety and depression. When receiving a massage by a caring practitioner the client will feel the positive energy and unconditional support and caring that is put into it, improving their self image and mental state. Imagine all the pills you have to take each day to accomplish all the things massage therapy can do and without any side effects!
Every time I give a massage, before I place my hands on you, I will connect with the positive energy and spirit within me. And when I place my hands on you it will be with intention. Intention to give you the best massage possible, to heal your mind, your body and your spirit. So the next time your are feeling depressed, anxious, in pain or your aching, don’t pick up a pill. Pick up the phone and call me. Your body will thank you!
Blessing to you...
