Massage therapy has a myriad of mental and physical benefits that are unique to each individual person. Depending on the condition of the client, massage can have a huge impact on overall health and wellness - especially if a treatment plan is developed and kept overtime.
That being said, the most common mental benefit is the reduction of anxiety and stress. With the way massage relaxes the body, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated is guaranteed! Massage lowers the heartrate and soothes the muscles. This creates endorphins that lead to the decrease of stress hormones and lower anxiety levels. Anxiety is often a factor in depression, meaning that massage can also ease depression symptoms.
Benefits like the ones listed above often have snowball effects, meaning that they lead to other benefits. For example, less anxiety can lead to better sleep, which leads to having more energy to get tasks done during the day. Better sleep can also lead to lessening muscle tension, which can snowball into increasing range of motion.
