medical massage for your muscle aches and pains
benefits of massage
1. Pain Relief: Massage therapy can alleviate chronic back pain, neck pain, migraines, and musculoskeletal pain associated with conditions like fibromyalgia. Massage promotes relaxation, increases blood flow, and releases endorphins, which are natural pain-relieving hormones.
2. Stress and Anxiety Reduction: Massage therapy is proven to reduce stress and anxiety levels. Massage lowers cortisol (the stress hormone) levels while increasing serotonin and dopamine (neurotransmitters associated with mood regulation and relaxation). This leads to improved mental well-being and a sense of calmness.
3. Improved Sleep: Preferred Rehab patients tell us that regular massage sessions help optimize their sleep quality and quantity. Studies demonstrate that massage regulates sleep patterns, enhances relaxation, and reduces insomnia symptoms, leading to better overall sleep quality.
4. Enhanced Athletic Performance and Recovery: Athletes come to Preferred Rehab to improve their performance and quicken recovery time after training sessions. Massage reduces muscle soreness, improves flexibility, and increases blood flow, leading to better performance.
6. Lower Blood Pressure: Massage can help lower blood pressure levels. Regular massage sessions have been associated with a decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings, contributing to improved cardiovascular health.
