Circulation

Research has shown that massage aids blood flow, and so delivering oxygen to all the body’s cells, which we need for energy.

Massage also helps your lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing toxins, waste build-up and bacteria. One of the lymphatic system’s most important roles is to fight infection, as part of the immune system. So when you feel run-down and stressed out, you’re more likely to develop a cold or other illness, and feel lethargic.

Through applying pressure and massage through specific points and channels, it can boost your lymph system, meaning your body can detoxify itself more effectively. This helps your blood circulate better, getting rid of that sluggish tired feeling.
