Body Massage

Body Massage

Massage is the stroking, kneading, warming, rolling and pressing of skin and muscles.

There are lots of different kinds of massage, each with broadly different origins and aims – some focus on soothing muscle pain; others on increasing energy levels; some aim to improve a specific physical condition; others simply to help you relax.

Massage makes you feel good in lots of ways, and can have a positive effect on your whole body – your bones, your muscles, your heart, your skin, your breathing, digestion, and your mental health.

Massage works in various ways:

• It relaxes and refreshes tired or knotted muscles
• It increases blood circulation
• It stimulates deep circulation, both of blood and lymph which helps your body to heal, and generally work more efficiently
• It encourages your body to produce endorphins – the natural chemicals in your body that make you feel happy
