Tips to Make this Your Most Relaxing Season
Don’t wait till the last minute to make time for self-care. Book a series of massages for the holidays pre-party, post travel and before and after family gatherings to make this your most relaxing season yet! Here is how a visit to The NOW massage can help melt away stress and tension.
How can a massage reduce tension?
Shopping, decorating and cooking can all take a toll on your mind and body. Neck and shoulder tension is a common problem, especially for those who are hosting, this time of year. Techniques like deep tissue target knots and tight muscles to relieve physical stress.
Can massage improve sleep?
Book an evening service or weekend appointment to help manage sleep issues. Massage triggers the parasympathetic nervous system, lowering your heart rate and helping your body enter a state of deep rest.
How does massage therapy lower stress hormones?
The holidays are a perfect trigger for releasing cortisol – the body’s fight or flight hormone. A massage promotes relaxation and stimulates the production of endorphins to help you feel naturally calmer and grounded.
Will a massage boost immunity?
By improving circulation a massage makes it easier to deliver nutrients to your muscles and tissues. Don’t wait till you are run down and getting sick, book preventive treatments to stay rested, relaxed and happy all season long.
