The benefits of Registered Massage Therapy
We’ve all seen it in movies; the dim lighting, the candles and the soothing music.. But don’t let that fool you. The classic perception of “getting a massage” leaves out many of the incredible benefits that this modality has to offer. Registered massage therapy has numerous direct and indirect effects on not only the musculoskeletal structures but also the neurological, hormonal, immune and digestive systems, just to name a few.
Our body is composed of 650 beautiful muscles that contract every second of every day. They control each movement, each breath and each heartbeat without us even paying attention to their function. Our muscular system makes up 40 percent of our body composition; we’re basically walking sacks of muscle. This alone should be a reason to not neglect their care. Registered massage therapy can address a whole spectrum of bodily dysfunctions from acute injuries to simply reducing stress levels.
