Benefits of Massage Therapy

When was the last time you got a massage?  If you had to pause to find an answer, there is a good chance you have gone too long without one. I was one of those people and am trying to change that and get body work done more often.

Scheduling massage therapy on a regular basis  has many health benefits:  stress relief, anxiety reduction, loosening tight muscles, pain management, injury recovery, builds healthy circulation, promotes better posture and more.

I noticed my shoulders were getting tight so I decided a follow up massage was in order since I got my last one from Ange at Banana Beach. I booked myself in for yesterday morning, this time I opted to go to her massage space as it is even closer to home.

While Ange was doing my intake write up she had me soaking in a nice bowl of peppermint and lime water. I told her what areas I was feeling tight in and she asked me what I was looking to get from the massage – I wanted relaxation, tension release and invigoration – tall order.

She started on my back rubbing the area in long, gentle strokes, to warm the tissue and stretch it out. I tend to hold tension in my the neck and shoulder region. I did not realize just how much till Ange started putting some elbow grease into untangling my knots.

I like that she did a lot of circular motion work and stretching my limbs to release tension in my muscles and allow them to move more freely. It was a direct compliment to the range of motion stretching I have been doing on my own.

No matter what your reason is for booking a massage, Ange will work to make sure you get the results you desire and you leave feeling lighter.
