What Is Massage Therapy?

In massage therapy, a trained and certified professional manipulates tissues of your
body with different degrees of pressure and movements. Studies have shown that this type of treatment offers
direct benefits to soothe, and relieve physical and emotional pain.

What To Expect From Your Session ?

At BeWell, we have seen the tremendous benefits Massage Therapy can have for our clients. Your massage experience will be tailored to your specific needs and limits, and our massage therapists will work with you to ensure that you remain safe and comfortable during your sessions.

Not only does massage provide much-needed relaxation throughout the treatment process, but its neurochemical effects can enhance your ability to participate in and benefit from other therapies that we offer, allowing you to experience even more profound healing and personal growth.

What Are The Mental Health Benefits Of Massage Therapy?

While massage can be deeply relaxing on a purely physical level, research also indicates that it produces profound neurochemical changes that increase psychological well-being. One study published in the International Journal of Neuroscience found that serotonin increased an average of 28% and dopamine levels increased 31% following massage therapy. These neurological changes may explain why people with depression and anxiety who receive massage treatments report decreased symptoms.

A meta-analysis of studies on massage as a treatment for depression published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry found that “Massage therapy is significantly associated with alleviated depressive symptoms.” Meanwhile, a pilot study on young adults in an inpatient psychiatric unit reported that, “Massage therapy had immediate beneficial effects on anxiety-related measures.”
