Massage is a mini-reset for your body and mind

Life’s hectic pace can cause tension to build up in your body. Lower backpain? Stiff neck? We all know how that feels. So, make sure to press the pause button now and then and treat yourself to a relaxing massage. A much-deserved wellness moment that will do anyone the world of good!

The physical benefits of a massage

A massage is not a luxury, it’s a way to give yourself a little breather. And, it has many other physical benefits. A massage:

alleviates muscle tension by stimulating blood flow,
improves suppleness, making your body feel nice and loose,
promotes muscle recovery after intense exercise,
boosts blood flow and
stimulates your lymphatic system so waste products are removed faster.

A massage wakes up your body in a gentle way and allows you to move freely again.

A massage calms your mind

A wonderful massage helps you sleep better because when your body is relaxed, it can go into rest mode more easily. Your heartrate drops, your breathing slows and as a result, you will fall asleep faster, enjoy a more restful, uninterrupted night’s sleep and wake up with more energy.
A massage also lowers your stress levels. The sensation of touch decreases the production of cortisol and increases the release of endorphins and serotonin. And another great benefit? You will find it easier to concentrate.
And who doesn’t want that?
