Massage therapy is the oldest form of wellness. Energy Works ATL wants to bring back the ancient curative effects of massage therapy to improve and maintain your physical, mental and spiritual health. Massage should not be a luxury service but rather a way of life to maintain and improve your health. This ancient stress relieving, therapeutic and beneficial practice can provide tangible physical benefits. The benefits of massage vary from person to person, but in every case, the therapeutic benefits are valuable, profound, relaxing, and restorative.

Not one massage is the same for every person. Our approach is to listen to your body and address its needs. Expert therapeutic massage is good for every lifestyle and focuses on maintaining and improving the working order of each guest’s mind and body.

SOME OF THE MAIN BENEFITS OF MASSAGE

Regular therapeutic massage produces some very positive biological and restorative results. The physical manipulation of soft tissue (muscles, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments) has two major effects: increase blood and lymph circulation as well as the relaxation and normalization of the soft tissue itself, which releases nerves and deeper connective tissues which reduces stress and pain. In addition to the physical and psychological benefits of massage, toxin removal can further enhance an individual’s health and well-being and massage stimulates the elimination of unnecessary toxins in the body. Massage therapy can also help you relax and relieve stress and anxiety and aids your body to relax into a more restorative sleep.

Research has shown that receiving regular massage therapy not only increases serotonin levels in the brain, boost the immune system and flushes toxins, increases the activity of white blood cells that help our body fight diseases and may assist with the reduction of cortisol which is the body’s main stress hormone.

Therapeutic massage helps improve circulation by actively moving blood through the body via the pressure created by the massage technique applied and the manipulation of the soft tissue. It also increases elasticity of the soft tissue through manipulation and stretching. Poor muscle elasticity reduces range of motion and make the muscle more prone to injury. Even though muscle injuries are common, in most cases can be avoided with a proper maintenance plan from a licensed Massage Therapist at your local Energy Works ATL Wellness Center.

Massage can help with injury rehabilitation. If you have ever experienced a surgical procedure or injury that requires physical therapy, you will understand that professional and skilled massage therapy can play a dramatic role in the recovery process.
