Getting a massage is a reward onto itself. An hour of total relaxation means most people don\u2019t need much persuasion to get one. But as an added bonus, there are a variety of health benefits in addition to simply relieving stress. If you\u2019re on the fence about one of our treatments, take the plunge. Our massages have benefits beyond relaxation.<\/p>\n
A Healthier You<\/b><\/p>\n
Massages relieve stress by working and softening tense muscle tissue. The gentle movements relax tight pressure points of your body, increasing blood flow and range of motion. Massages are also known to improve sleep, and even enhance body immunity.<\/p>\n
Drain Toxins<\/b><\/p>\n
Your body naturally removes waste or \u201ctoxins\u201d on a daily basis. However, when stress tightens your muscles, this can decrease circulation and make it harder for your body to filter those toxins out. Getting a massage increase circulation, allowing your body to clear out any waste that has built up over time.<\/p>\n
After a massage, it\u2019s best to drink a lot of water in order for the body to further filter out the toxins completely. That way, your great results will last even longer.<\/p>\n
Improve Skin<\/b><\/p>\n
Cupping Therapy is another massage technique used to draw out toxins directly through the skin. This therapy became\u00a0popularized by our Olympic athletes to remove muscle pain, including Michael Phelps. In addition to the benefits of a massage,\u00a0this technique is also known to increase the appearance of skin. This way, you not only remove toxins, but any unwanted skin imperfections as well.<\/p>\n
Better than a tan<\/b><\/p>\n
If you\u2019re looking for that summer glow without the added risk of sun damage,\u00a0Bronze-A-Piel\u00a0massages are the perfect solution. Our bronzer provides color in comfort with a full body polish, moisturizer, and firming lotion. We provide all the results with none of the risks.<\/p>\n
Speedier Recovery<\/b><\/p>\n
While increased blood flow from massages tends to help with healing in general, it can be particularly helpful after surgery. We offer massages that help you recover from specific surgeries, and general treatments to help rebound from injuries faster. If you\u2019re interested in including a massage during your recovery, talk to our medical spa representative at 231.739.1933.<\/p>\n
Relaxation During Pregnancy<\/b><\/p>\n
