Physicians are prescribing therapeutic massage therapy for a wide range of medical conditions, including:
- anxiety
- arthritis
- carpal tunnel syndrome
- chronic and temporary pain
- circulatory problems
- depression
- headache
- insomnia
- myofascial pain
- reduced range of motion sports injuries
- stress
Research shows massage reduces the heart rate, lowers blood pressure, increases blood circulation and lymph flow, relaxes muscles, improves range of motion, and increases endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.
Therapeutic massage enhances medical treatment and helps people feel less anxious and stressed, relaxed yet more alert.
