Aside from transporting you into a state of highest bliss, massage therapy offers multiple benefits for women’s health. Here are some common conditions that can be alleviated through massage:
Easing PMS Symptoms:
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) can cause anxiety, moodiness, cramps, and headaches in the week or two before menstruation.
Massage helps by increasing mood-boosting brain chemicals, relieving stress and anxiety, and reducing cramps associated with hormonal changes.
Reducing Physical Signs of Stress:
Women often experience higher stress levels than men.
Massage releases endorphins, soothes the sympathetic nervous system, and can slow heart rate, calm breathing, and decrease stress hormones.
Relieving Period Cramps:
Massage can help with menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea).
Aromatherapy massage has been found to be particularly effective in soothing period pain.
Menopause Symptoms:
Aromatherapy massage has provided relief from menopause symptoms.
It can help older women dealing with certain conditions.
Other Health Conditions:
Massage can also benefit women dealing with hypertension, arthritis, fatigue, recovery from heart bypass surgery, sports injuries, and stress-related conditions.
Remember that massage therapy is a holistic approach that promotes relaxation, reduces tension, and contributes to overall well-being. If you’re considering massage, call us to tailor a treatment to your specific needs. 🌿💆♀️
