4 excuses to get a massage this winter

Posted on

IT RAINS HERE, A LOT

We are an active, outdoorsy community and it can be a little depressing when its cold, rainy, and dark outside, and we are stuck indoors instead of getting the exercise and fresh air we crave. Treat yourself to a comforting, healthy massage this winter and chase the drudgery away!

BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEMBenefits of Winter Massage

Cold and flu season sucks. Massage therapy is a proven immune booster, increasing lymph flow, helping you fight off infections and bacteria. So a massage isn’t really for you…. it’s for all the people you won’t get sick!! 🙂

INCREASE CIRCULATION

No one enjoys cold and clammy feet or stiff and achy joints. Massage therapy can increase your circulation, loosen your muscles, and warm you up! What better way to decrease aches, pains, and stiffness? Plus, massage increases blood flow, lowers blood pressure, and can improve overall function!

FIGHT S.A.D.-ness

Massage therapy increases serotonin and endorphins, relieves stress, and may help you fight off the Seasonal Affective Disorder we hear so much about in these darker winter months. Why not treat yourself to something that improves your spirit and health?
