Massage therapy is a systematic scientific manipulation of soft body tissue

Why massage is a great health investment for the experienced adult.
Massage therapy is a systematic scientific manipulation of soft body tissue to obtain and maintain optimal health. Using massage as a regular therapy will increase blood flow and loosen muscles. Immediate benefits include relaxation, pain relief and the release of endorphins that create “the happy feeling.”
Every ancient civilization has recorded the benefits of touch and body manipulation.
Hippocrates (c 460 BC – 370 BC) said “healing begins with an aromatic bath and daily massage.” The Yellow Emperor Huangdi and Qi Bo (c 475 – 221 BC – the fathers of Chinese medicine) introduced massage techniques and stated the following; “The vital energy (Qi and blood) flowing in the body’s meridian system determines a man’s life and death, and severity, curability and root cause(s) of a disease.”
A modern endorsement comes from the Mayo Clinic’s stress management e-newsletter which states, “Massage is generally considered part of complementary and alternative medicine. It’s increasingly being offered along with standard treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and situations. Studies of the benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension.”
All of this can be said in a single sentence. Massage has a proven history of promoting health and well being.
