Massage cannot only be relaxing but you can also benefit from many theraputic effects for example, the blood circulation can be improved, direct pressure improves the circulation & massage stimulates the nerves controlling the blood vessels, the lymphatic system is also improved, the flow of lymph is stimulated to the lymph glands & this aids the elimation of waste & toxins.
Massage also softens & nourishes the skin, improves desquamation of surface adhesions, thus improving the skins texture & tone. For fairly active & sporty people the muscular system will improve by relieving muscular tension due to removal of waste products. Muscular wastage resulting from injury can also be prevented.
Most of all massage can be relaxing, stress relieving & promotes a general feeling of well being.
