Massage: The Perfect Way to End a Busy Work Week

Whether your job is physically demanding or you are concerned about carpel tunnel syndrome from extensive computer use, massage is the perfect way to soothe your work-related ailments. By relaxing your body and easing your mind, Asian massage can put you in the right mindset for the coming weekend and refuel you for the work week ahead. Here are some of the benefits to ending your busy work week with Asian massage:

Pain relief

Perhaps the most obvious benefit of massage is the release of physical tension. Back and leg massages can ease muscles that are sore from a week of strenuous physical labor, while neck, eye, and head rubs bring similar relief to those who spend their days staring at computer screens.

Blood pressure control

Are grievances at work causing your blood pressure to spike? Fear not: Asian massage can gently bring your blood pressure back down. Studies have linked massage to drops in blood pressure, as well as stimulation of the vagus nerve, which regulates blood pressure.

Stress relief

The release of physical tensions is often accompanied by the release of mental tensions. Massage triggers your body’s relaxation response, effectively reversing the symptoms of stress. Your heart rate and breathing become more relaxed. In fact, massage is sometimes used as a treatment for anxiety and depression.

Instant gratification

At the end of a busy work week, it’s likely that the last thing you want to do is wait to relax. Massage therapy alleviates this problem; Asian massage provides an instant source of physical and mental stress relief, starting your weekend off on the right foot.
