Massage Therapy
Massage therapy involves the strategic manipulation of soft tissues to promote the body's natural healing processes and enhance overall well-being. By improving blood circulation and lymphatic flow, massage helps reduce muscular tension and alleviate the buildup of lactic acid.
Although traditionally performed with the hands, therapists may also use their forearms or elbows to achieve deeper effects. The goal is to influence the nervous system through either stimulation or relaxation, facilitating the healing of tissues and promoting balance within the body.
Massage therapy supports the body's innate ability to heal itself, impacting various systems such as the muscular, skeletal, circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous systems. This holistic approach aligns with the core philosophy of enhancing the body’s natural restorative capabilities.
