The Benefits of Massage: this Winter, Book a Treatment at The Spa

By Staff Writer

While winter doesn’t last long in our region, our bodies really can feel the chill and it can affect us negatively. Consider the healing benefits of a treatment at The Spa, which has been serving San Miguel residents and visitors since 1984.

Physical Benefits:

1. Muscle Relaxation: Massage helps relieve muscle tension and promotes relaxation, which can alleviate pain and discomfort.

2. Improved Circulation: It enhances blood flow, which can help deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues and facilitate recovery.

3. Pain Relief: Many people find relief from chronic pain conditions (which can be exacerbated by cold weather), including back pain, arthritis, and headaches, through regular massage.

Mental Benefits:

1. Stress Reduction: Massage reduces levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) and promotes relaxation, which can help decrease overall stress.

2. Improved Sleep: Many people experience better sleep quality after a massage, as it can help alleviate tension and promote relaxation.

3. Enhanced Mood: Massage triggers the release of endorphins and serotonin, which can improve mood and reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.

Other Benefits:

1. Boosted Immune Function: Regular massage may enhance immune system function by reducing stress and promoting relaxation.

2. Improved Posture: By addressing muscle imbalances and tension, massage can help correct postural issues.

3. Support during Illness: Massage can provide comfort and relief for individuals dealing with chronic illnesses or undergoing medical treatments.

Plus, know that when you choose The Spa, a portion of your payment goes to support So Others May Eat (SOME) – and that is simply good for the heart too.
