Health Maintenance Massage Therapy Denver Metro Area
Finally there's research to convince even the greatest critic that massage therapy is a powerful ally in our healthcare. Consequently, it's being utilized in a variety of applications like hospice care, neonatal intensive care, work place concerns, sports training, and surgical procedures that require our specialty, Peri-operative Therapy. People feel improvement in their bodies and in their lives by incorporating massage.
Stress
Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. Eliminating anxiety and stress altogether in this fast-paced world may be idealistic, but massage can, without a doubt, help support the body’s stress responses.
Pain
Every day, people deal with pain in one form or another. From a simple tension headache to chronic debilitating pain, massage therapy has been shown to give people relief by alleviating or entirely eliminating pain.
Sport
Swimmer Michael Phelps, who won eight gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, noted that his training regimen integrated daily massage. While most of us lean toward recreational sports and exercise rather than world-class competition, massage still plays an important role in maintaining health and keeping bodies prepared to play.
Pregnancy
As a woman changes during the many stages of pregnancy, normal life routines become irregular including sleep patterns, exercise, and eating habits. Perinatal massage therapy helps to calm the nervous system, support the body through the variety of physical changes, and helps mothers thrive through this life-changing event.
Cumulative Benefits
The benefits of massage are shown to be cumulative through repeated visits. Consider receiving massage on a regular basis and avoid seeking massage only when you're in acute pain. Budgeting time and money for bodywork at consistent intervals is an investment in your health. Your Soulstice therapist will establish a relationship with you to create a treatment schedule to best meet your needs.
Research shows that massage therapy:
- Alleviates low-back pain and improves range of motion
- Assists with shorter, easier labor for expectant mothers and shortens maternity hospital stays
- Eases medication dependence
- Enhances immunity by stimulating lymph flow, the body's natural defense system
- Exercise and stretches weak, tight, or atrophied muscles
- Helps athletes of any level prepare for, and recover from, strenuous workouts
- Pumps oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs, improving circulation
- Reduces post-surgical adhesions and swelling
Furthermore, clients often report a sense of perspective and clarity after receiving a massage. The emotional balance bodywork provides can often be just as vital and valuable as the more tangible physical benefits.
