Massage Benefits

Massage Benefits
The benefits experienced from massage can vary from relief of stress and pain to an enhanced self esteem.  The reasons behind the changes in feelings, whether it be physical, mental or emotional may stem from a release of endorphins, increase in circulation or breaking up of scar tissue to an injury site, or the simple fact that we allow ourselves some “me” time where we can actually shut down our body and mind and just be.  The bottom line is that when a person receives safe appropriate therapeutic touch the potential benefits can be amazing and widespread.

Nirvana Bodyworks works with each person to discover what benefit they are looking for and customizes the treatment plan according to these desires.  We are educated and experienced at working with acute and chronic pain associated with either repetitive stress injuries or as a result of an isolated accident.

There are numerous research facilities that have outlined the potential benefits of massage, however we have decided to share some benefits our clients have experienced after being treated by us:

•    Decrease of pain, both local to the source as well as referred pain to other parts of the body
•    Increased range of motion
