A massage can be used for many purposes, but one of the foremost uses is helping the recipient to relax. Whether recovering from a sporting injury or simply feeling tense from work stress or repetitive movements, a massage is a natural and enjoyable treatment that can provide various physical benefits. Specialising in sports massage in Central London and Kingston, our therapist is highly skilled at providing tailor made massage treatments.
Stress can potentially be dangerous if it is allowed to build up. Common health problems caused or exacerbated by stress include depression, obesity, heart disease, fatigue, chest pain and suppression of the immune system. This is due to the fight or flight response we have in response to stress, which allows our bodies to kick into overdrive, remove any distractions and focus solely on the challenge ahead. The physical changes that this response triggers, including increased heart rate and slowed digestion rate, and the overall energy it requires to activate can cause negative effects on the body if this response is prolonged or occurs far too often.
The only true way to combat stress is to remove the fight or flight response, and the only way that can be done is via relaxation. Massage helps to reduce tension and anxiety, helping to improve the health of your body. It offers a number of benefits such as increasing blood flow and stimulating the lymphatic system. By relaxing the body and the nervous system, it restores you, physically and mentally, to a state of well-being and helps you to recover from stress.
