Modern living places a variety of stresses on our bodies that can result in physical and emotional discomfort as well as increasing our risk for a number of serious health problems. Stress has been linked as a risk factor in heart disease, stroke, obesity and other health concerns. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 75% of America's health problems are stress related.
Massage is no longer considered a self-pampering indulgence; massage for stress management is a matter of health. The therapeutic benefits of a relaxation massage on the body and mind can include:
> lowering of stress hormones
> increased circulation
> relief of muscle tension
> lessening of anxiety, depression
> improved sleep
> enhanced sense of calmness and wellbeing
I specialize in helping you achieve natural stress relief and relaxation using a variety of massage techniques.
