Benefits of Massage Therapy

Are massages really good for you? Why or why not?

Blood flow is key to the health of any cell. When a muscle along with the surrounding tissue is lubricated and loose, the fibers are primed for flexibility and strength training. When a joint is relieved of muscle tension it can stay properly aligned. These are the main physical benefits of massage therapy.
