Research indicates there are many benefits of massage. Massage has been shown to have the ability to reduce hypertension and blood pressure by stimulating the vagus nerve that regulates blood pressure. By applying firm enough pressure to make a temporary indentation in the skin, massage has been shown to reduce pain and stress partially by reducing substance P in the brain related to pain. Massage may also boost immunity by reducing the stress hormone cortisol that attacks immune cells. Try self massage for repetitive movements like working on a computer, texting, or even gripping a steering wheel for long periods. Add to the benefits of massage by taking advantage of the aromatherapy benefits found in body massage oil creams.
Energize, clear your head, and moisturize all at the same time with body oils like oil of peppermint found in ginger/mint scented massage cream.
