Massage Therapy can be corrective as well as relaxing. Scientific studies show that massage is beneficial to reduce stress, enhance blood circulation, decrease pain, promote sleep, reduce swelling, enhance relaxation, and increase oxygen capacity of the blood. Massage is also beneficial for treating low back pain, arthritis, bursitis, fatigue, high blood pressure, diabetes, immunity suppression, infertility, smoking cessation, depression, and more. It has also been recognized as a nondrug treatment or complementary therapy for cancer, fibromialgia, and postoperative pain. Massage therapy is essentially a manipulation of the soft tissues. This work may include, but is not limited to, kneading, tapping, compression, vibration, rocking, friction, and pressure to the muscular structure or soft tissues of the human body. This may also include non-forceful passive or active movement and/or application of techniques intended to affect the energetic systems of the body. The use of a light oil and pure shea butter may be included to reduce friction on the skin. This type of therapy combines elements of relaxation, sports, deep tissue and Swedish massage, as well as some traditional Chinese medicine and energy balancing work. Clients experience an easing of tension and pain, as well as a greater sense of balance and harmony.
