Improved Circulation
In order for the body to function efficiently, blood and lymph must be allowed to circulate to where they are needed throughout the body to perform their duties. Relaxation massages help improve the body’s circulation when stiffness, pain, stress, and inflammation have hindered it. Better circulation has a positive effect on vital areas such at nutrient and oxygen delivery. These important elements are brought to muscle cells through the bloodstream. If circulation is limited, it stops vital nutrients from getting to where they need to be. Because of massage, the body’s cells can function more efficiently in removing toxins and reducing inflammation in soft tissue that can lead to pain and discomfort.
Developmental Disorders
Individuals who have developmental disorders like autism are now often being prescribed for massage therapy treatment. While individuals with autism usually do not enjoy physical touch, massage therapy offers a relaxing, positive experience that can gradually put an adult or child at ease. Sensory tolerability can improve as the individual is allowed to bond with the therapist. People who tend to be more sluggish have become more alert through massage as well as people who have a tendency for agitation becoming less combative.
Benefits of massage are good for individuals who are limited to their wheelchairs. Fluid-build up, soreness, and irritable bowels are often a result from lack of movement for people confined in chairs. Regular massages assist in stimulating their muscles, helping the function of areas to return, and increasing their blood circulation. Relaxing massage therapy can help the function and process of the entire body.
