Wellness Massage for Women
Massage is a great way to relax and get away from the stress of the real world, but it also provides women with a range of surprising physical benefits. A massage can boost your immunity, improve sleep, relieve chronic pain and reduce symptoms of premenstrual syndrome or PMS. An estimated 80% of women experience PMS symptoms such as bloating, cramping, irritability, mood swings every month—and most just assume they have to suffer through it. Massage therapy is an ideal way to alleviate symptoms by promoting improved circulation, reduced muscle tension, and the release of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine—all of which can help you feel more comfortable in your own skin.
