Benefits of Massage Therapy:

Improves circulation and lowers blood pressure
Enhances sleep and digestion
Calms the nervous system
Maintains flexibility and range of motion in joints
Relaxes muscle spasms to relieve tension and soreness
Boosts the immune system
Aids your recovery from pulled muscles or sprained ligaments
Relieves certain repetitive motion injuries and can prevent injury
Brings awareness to your sense of well-being
Detoxifies your body and hydrates your skin
One hour of massage is equivalent to twenty minutes of exercise

During the massage, your tight muscles tend to relax and the pain associated with chronic tension is relieved. Increased circulation will supply more oxygen and nutrients to your muscles and help rid them of metabolic waste. Blocked, deadened areas are thus able to respond to sensory input again. Massage also stimulates release of the body's own natural pain killers—the endorphins.

A program of regular massage will put you in touch with your body, teaching you to monitor its signals and needs so you'll know when you should take time out from the things that worry you. In this way you can avoid the damaging effects of chronic stress and gain some control over your sense of well-being.
