How massage can help

Massage Therapy Simply increases circulation which will help decrease swelling and pain. As your body pumps blood through your system, the resistance it meets from tight muscles pressing on the venous and arterial tissue, slows the flow of your bodies fluids.

Our blood is the carrier of all the stuff good and bad in our system. It transports oxygen, nutrition, hormones, energy and other substances needed for tissue repair and function, to the areas that are damaged or just have outlived their life expectancy. Your blood also carries the waste products created from the healing process and everyday function of your organs and muscles away to be filtered by your kidneys, liver and lymph nodes.

The increase of blood flow and decrease of muscle tightness, allows the body to function the way it was designed and without pain. This helps speed up recovery from strenuous activity such as training in the gym or for various events like running, paddling or cycling.
