The healing benefits of massage therapy involve both the relaxation of the body and the positive effects on the mind. Research indicates that the rhythmic pressure of massage therapy lowers the body's heart rate and increases blood circulation, which increases the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the cells while removing toxic waste products from the muscles.
Massage therapy promotes lymphatic flow, enhancing the immune system. It also lowers the level of stress hormones while boosting the production of endorphins, the body's "natural pain killers".
Ultimately, massage therapy increases the body's resistance to illness and promotes a longer, healthier life.
