Massage reduces effect of stress
Up to 90% of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress related complaints such as headaches, backaches, neck pain, eyestrain, poor concentration, anxiety, depression, irritability, anger, high blood pressure, heart disease, ulcers, physical and emotional exhaustion too.

Massage therapy has an amazing effect on the body's nervous system. When massage therapy activates the body's parasympathetic nervous system, it counteracts in body's negative response to stress, relaxing muscle tension and allowing heart rate, blood pressure and circulation to return to normal. Massage therapy also helps to become more aware of the body and the person’s unconsciously held tension. As the person become more aware of the body, one will begin to recognize tension as it builds during the day so that the person can consciously release it before it can have a negative effect on the body.
