Services – Massage
We care and we want to help you!
If your hand or wrist hurts, what do you do? You’ll rub it or hold it. By doing this, you are sending more healing to that injured body part through infrared energy.
Think about what it would feel like right now if you had just finished receiving a massage. You’d feel relaxed and content, right?
Those feelings of relaxation and being content don’t just happen at random. During a massage there is a transfer of infrared energy from the massage therapist to you. These feelings of relaxation occur after every massage because endorphins, your body’s natural painkillers are released during the session.
And the good news is that there are other benefits that you receive from massage:
- Stiffness and soreness in the joints and muscles are relieved greatly.
- Your pain may be gone, or is significantly less.
- You feel as if you’ve been given the gift of renewal and restoration.
- You feel as if you can tackle life better.
- You can move your body easier and more freely.
- You are smiling!
The healing powers of massage have been recognized since antiquity. In the 5th century BC, the Greek physician Hippocrates wrote that his colleagues should be experienced “in rubbing … for rubbing can bind a joint that is too loose, and loosen a joint that is too rigid.” The ancient Chinese, Egyptians, and Romans all had their own types of massage. The massage techniques as we know them today didn’t appear until the late 19th century.
Medical studies have proven the wonderful benefits of massage for patients with a variety of ailments.
