Massages are a great way to ‘treat yo self,’ but they also have very real benefits. Below are just five of the reasons you should consider getting a massage regularly. 

• Massages combat stress and help to reduce anxiety.
• They can help to boost your immune system and promote movement of the lymph. Your lymphatic system does not have a heart to pump it, so it relies on your body movement and blood vessels to move it. If you are not very active because of injuries or work, massage can help it.
• Aids in addressing back pain and issues associated with the musculoskeletal system.
• Promotes flexibility, can help increase your range of motion and addresses issues associated with repetitive movements.
• Can help in reducing the appearance of scarring as well as wrinkles and post-pregnancy stretch marks (newer scarring responds better).

Depending on your health concerns, your massage therapist might recommend a massage schedule of weekly or just once a month. If you’re thinking about getting a regular massage, consider buying a massage package—it helps to save money and hold yourself accountable for the self-care you deserve.
