Massage relaxes muscle spasms and relieves tension.
Massage dilates blood vessels, improves circulation and relieves congestion throughout the body.
Massage acts as a “cleanser”, stimulating lymph circulation and hastes the elimination of toxins.
Massage increases blood supply and nutrition without adding toxic lactic acid produced through voluntary muscle contraction.
Massage thus helps to prevent buildup of harmful “fatigue” products resulting from strenuous exercise or injury.
Massage improves muscle tone and helps prevent muscle atrophy resulting from inactivity.
Massage encourages the retention of nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur necessary for tissue repair in persons suffering from bone fractures.
Massage improves circulation and nutrition to joints and hastens the elimination of harmful deposits. It helps lessen inflammation, swelling and alleviates pain.
