Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body
and improves health and well- being by acting on the muscular,
nervous and circulatory systems. Physical function can be developed,
maintained and improved and physical dysfunction can be relieved
or prevented through the use of massage therapy.
A massage therapist is
a regulated health professional who has received two or three
years of comprehensive training at a recognized school before
completing written and clinical examinations and registering with
the College of Massage Therapists of British Columbia.
Benefits of Massage Therapy
There are tremendous benefits to be achieved through regular massage
therapy treatments from a Registered Massage Therapist. Whether
your need is to have a moment of relaxation, reduce muscle tension
or attain relief from chronic pain, a therapeutic massage can
enhance your overall sense of emotional and physical well-being
as well as your quality of life.
Massage therapy benefits
people of all ages. While it benefits the injured, the ill and
the stressed, the strength of massage therapy in preventing illness
and conditions before they develop cannot be overlooked. Massage
therapy can be used in the treatment of both acute and chronic
stages of conditions.
