You will find out exactly why regularly having a massage is not a luxury but real self-care.

What happens in your body during a massage?

During a massage, you will not only feel relaxed, it also stimulates several physical processes. 
Muscle tension decreases. Not only will you have fewer muscle aches and pains, you will also suffer from fewer headaches because any tension in your neck and shoulders is reduced. And, it improves your posture too because relaxed muscles allow your body to return to its natural alignment more easily. 
A massage stimulates your lymphatic system, which promotes a more efficient removal of waste products and boosts your immune system.  
Blood flow improves, allowing oxygen and nutrients to be supplied faster.  
Your body releases serotonin and endorphins and decreases the production of cortisol. This  reduces stress, but you will also be able to fall asleep faster and enjoy a more restful, uninterrupted night’s sleep.
