Top 5 PROVEN Health Benefits
IMPROVES YOUR SLEEP:
Having regular massage can positively impact stress and reduce your stress levels. Stress is one of the main factors that contribute to a bad night’s sleep. So, by reducing stress levels with massage, we can encourage and promote a deeper and more peaceful sleep. It will help to combat insomnia, as it increases your serotonin production. At Pure Emporium, we also recommend trying to maintain a “healthy bed-time”, as well as reducing your use of electrical devices, right before you go to sleep.
BOOSTS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM:
There has been medical research that proves that regular massage can boost the strength of your immune system. We know that massage increases our circulation. An improved blood flow helps to move and deliver healthy nutrients throughout your body, whilst filtering out any waste. Massage can also increase your level of lymphocytes in your body. These cells help the immune system to fight off any harmful substances in the body.
REDUCES INFLAMMATION AND PAIN:
Pressure, tension and stiffness can all cause muscle-related pain. It’s been proven that massage can drastically reduce inflammation, and speed up the recovery of muscles, especially post-exercise. As we’ve already said, massage can help to increase the blood flow. If the blood flow in a “sore” muscle area is increased, this can relieve pain and encourage recovery.
IMPROVE YOUR PHYSICAL FITNESS:
This one is linked to the above point. Massage can help to improve your physical fitness, ESPECIALLY as it can help to speed up muscle recovery. Massage can also help to increase your muscle-flexibility, which will reduce your susceptibility to becoming injured. A regular message can improve your posture, which again, will help with performing exercises and working with weights.
ENHANCES YOUR WELL-BEING:
We know that massage can reduce stress and increase relaxation. Having a regular massage can reduce the feelings of anxiety and depression. Massage can reduce your cortisol levels, the hormone that is linked with stress. By lowering your levels of cortisol, can improve your overall well-being and promote a relaxed and “less-stressed” feeling.
