There’s a reason you feel more human after a massage. Think about it!
Your body is literally shifting into a calmer state. Here’s what’s happening behind the scenes:
😌 Cortisol (your stress hormone) goes down.
Massage has been shown to lower cortisol levels, which helps you feel less overwhelmed and more grounded.
😊 Serotonin + dopamine rise.
These “feel-good” chemicals support mood, regulation, and deeper relaxation.
🧘 Your nervous system switches from fight-or-flight to rest-and-digest.
Heart rate slows, breathing deepens, and your body finally gets a moment to repair.
💪 Muscles release tension.
Pain signals calm down, which helps your whole body feel safer and more at ease.
Stress isn’t just “in your head.” It’s real. Very! Massage supports the systems that help you cope, recover, and reset.
