Hi,
Massage Therapy not only relaxes you but reduces stress. Massage helps with blood flow, edema, joint pain & lactic acid reduction to name a few health benefits. What's important is that the Massage Therapist is trained, licensed & has a permit in the city where they work not certification. The police department requires finger printing & does a background check before the license is issued. The License looks like a Drivers license with a picture on it. Hope this helps. Bob Hope had massages daily & lived to be 100.

It certainly is. The best thing to do after a massage is to have a glass of room temperature water. This helps the body rid toxins that have been released during the massage.

Massage is definitely beneficial, as long as you see a trained, qualified CMT (Certified Massage Technician). Massage improves circulation (which is why you should drink lots of water after a massage, because massage moves toxins out of your muscles, and water helps to flush the toxins out), improves muscle tone, helps me to stay "in the moment" and listen to my body's signals, helps me to relax and not stress out. I highly recommend regular massage and body work.

It is scienifically proven that massage therapy and chiropractic combined, can reduce ailments...when your body is in total alignment, you will never get sick...no uti's, no colds, etc....your white blood cells will be flowing and fighting. Your immune system will just get stronger...

regular massage is definately good for your health especially if you have remedial massaging or lymphatic draining massaging...the body becomes unbalanced when we are stressed or tensed so massaging is definately beneficial
