There are many known healing benefits that can be derived
from a massage. The process involves the manipulation, rubbing, or pressing of
the skin, ligaments, tendons and muscles in the body in order to
therapeutically relieve stress and promote relaxation. One may use his elbow,
fingers, hands and even the feet in order to give a massage. Deep or light
strokes and pressures are also used in order to provide the physiological
response of the body that helps it to relax and attain a higher level of
de-stressing the body.
Massage can alleviate many medical conditions like anxiety,
insomnia, muscle strain, sprain, digestive disorders, musculoskeletal painful
conditions and headaches. Not only is the healing benefit of massage beneficial
to various medical conditions but it can also promote the feeling of comfort,
caring and empowerment of the mind and body.
However, although massage is known for its
healing benefits, it is not a substitute for professional medical care especially
in cases when your condition needs the help of a doctor.
Massage is recognized to provide health benefits not only to
the physical body but also to mental health as well. It helps the body to be
energized which is the reason why even healthy people like to get a regular
massage. Because massage increases the circulation in the body, it could also
promote a healthy skin, improve skin tone and improve joint flexibility. It is
also healthy for the mind as it promotes a high state of relaxation that allows
the mind to think clearly with the opportunity for creative thinking and mental
alertness.
