Massage has its greatest benefits over time.
The therapeutic effects of massage are cumulative, so the more often a person gets a massage, the better he or she will feel and the more quickly one’s body will respond.
From one session to the next, relaxation deepens as the chronic patterns of stress in the body are affected and released.
These changes are readily felt in day-to-day life as well, which adds another dimension of reinforcement.
Following below is a partial list of some of these benefits.

Breaks up muscle restrictions and trigger points, commonly called "knots" thus reducing pain and increasing strength and flexibility.
You may move with more ease and have an increased range of motion in muscles and joints after your treatment Massage increases elasticity and resilience of the skin.
Massage encourages a healthy heart by decreasing elevated blood pressure and also helps increase the strength of the heart's muscle contraction and amount of blood moved by the heartbeat.
Experience an increase in metabolic rate leaving you feeling energized.
