The massage therapy session just ended and you are slowly focusing in on the objects surrounding you. Your ears tune in to every rippling wave as the transcending melody of nature peacefully moves throughout your body, bringing you back into the present dimension. You feel your arms and legs tingle as blood flow radiates inward to your muscles, and throughout your organs.
As you slowly drag your legs off the table one-by-one and onto the floor; you begin to feel half as heavy as before (except for the increased volume of waste accumulating in your bladder).
There is nothing like the feeling of endorphins rushing throughout the body at increased metabolic rates, producing the feeling of overall relaxation and a sense of well-being.
According to www.spatrade.com, during massage large amounts of endorphins are released into the bloodstream. The physiological results of the endorphin release mechanism is one of deep relaxation—respiration slows down, heart rate decreased, eyes dilate, blood is shunted from the extremities to the body’s core—which improves digestion and venous flow to the internal organs. The lymphatic system speeds up and this increases excretion of waste and toxins from the body.
Other Health Benefits of Massage Are:
• Improve Range of Motion
• Alleviate Low-Back Pain
• Enhances Immunity (increased lymph flow)
• Lessens Depression & Anxiety
• Reduces Scar Tissue & Stretch Marks
• Reduces Spasms & Cramping
• Relieve Migraine Pain
• Release Endorphins- that work as the body’s natural painkiller
