If you think getting a massage is just a bit of indulgence, think again. In a health article from CNN.com it was reported that massage offers real health benefits, so much so that some conventional hospitals are making massage a standard therapy for surgery patients.
So in addition to the “feel good” aspect of massage that we all know about, you might be surprised to learn that massage has also been shown to:
- Relieve pain
- Boost your level of alertness and attention
- Increase your body’s natural killer cells, which help your immune system to defend against illness
- Reduce stress, anxiety and depression and ease insomnia
- Decrease symptoms of PMS
