Therapeutic massage has been used for thousands of years as a natural pain relief treatment. We use massage therapy in our Napa, CA office, as it works great in conjunction with the chiropractic care that Dr. Roxann Bettencourt, DC provides. Massage does much more than just feel good. It also offers many benefits as well. Some are physical and others are psychological, and here are some of the proven benefits:
- Pain reduction (back, neck, shoulder, legs, arm, and headache pain)
- Improved range of motion and flexibility
- Improved circulation
- Improved immune system function
- Enhanced sports performance
- Reduced depression or anxiety
- Higher levels of energy
- Decreased levels of fatigue
- Reduced insomnia
- Easier labor and delivery for expecting mothers
- Fewer stretch marks
- Less scar tissue
Benefits such as these have been discovered to be extremely helpful for individuals who suffer with chronic conditions such as arthritis and asthma. Massage has also proven advantageous for burn injury patients, people with higher than healthy blood pressure, and women who suffer from premenstrual syndrome. Even preterm infants have shown benefits with massage therapy as they have increased levels of weight gain.
