Massage
Feeling stressed and anxious? Struggling with an injury or pain? Or perhaps you’re having a hard time recovering from exercise? If so, book a massage! Its benefits go beyond relaxation and stress relief.
Massage therapy not only calms your mind but also relieves pain, improves joint function, and speeds up healing. There are tremendous benefits to be achieved through regular massage therapy treatments from our Registered Massage Therapists. Whether your need is to have a moment of relaxation, reduce muscle tension or attain relief from chronic pain, a therapeutic massage can enhance your overall sense of emotional and physical well-being.
Why massage feels so good and has many health benefits:
Stimulates the release of hormones (endorphins and enkephalins) that reduce anxiety, stress, and pain
Lowers levels of stress hormones (norepinephrine, epinephrine, and cortisol), which reduce heart rate, lowers blood pressure, slow breathing, and relax muscles
Increases levels of oxytocin, which is a hormone that increases social bonding and behaviors like trustworthiness, generosity, and empathy
Reduces activation of pain receptors in the spinal cord and muscles
Blocks the production of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, interleukin-6, and HSP-27), which stops swelling and inflammation of muscle tissue
Increases blood flow to muscles, connective tissue, and the lymph nodes
