RELAXATION MASSAGE RELIEVES STRESS
Massage does far more than just relax your muscles. One of the main purposes of the relaxation massage (Swedish massage), is to reduce stress and ease tension and relaxes your mind. The gently kneading and stroking of the muscles and skin, naturally increases the oxygen flow in the blood.
This flow flushes out waste products, like lactic acid, uric acid and other metabolic matter. The ligaments and tendons are gently stretched and pulled making them supple and pliable. This "kneading" and "flushing" affects the levels of the hormones, cortisol and adrenaline which, in turn calms, soothes and relaxes the central nervous system.
