November 30, 2015

Treat ailments from work

Whether it’s from a physically demanding job or a desk job, massage can help treat muscles that have been overused. Repetitive motions such as typing can lead to muscle fatigue. As muscles tighten, they lose flexibility, which leads to postural issues and a higher risk of injury.

Injuries from being active

Massage can prevent sport injuries as well as help promote the healing process of injuries by flushing out the lactic acid and metabolic waste to move out of the body allowing for oxygen-rich and nutrient-filled blood to flow in.. Men who are active in sports and receive massage on a regular basis are able to perform at a higher level.
