Massage is a general term for pressing, rubbing and manipulating your skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. Massage may range from light stroking to deep pressure. It's generally considered part of integrative medicine. Massage therapy has been found to be effective in reducing pain and increasing range of motion. It is also helpful in relieving stress and anxiety. It can also be applied as a preventative measure to help decrease the risk for certain diseases such as heart disease and stroke and others. A frequent misunderstanding about massage is that it's only part of a spa day and intended for pampering yourself. While this may be true for some people, it is most frequently a tool for stress reduction and pain relief. Some specific conditions that massage can help include:

Massage also has many mental health benefits. People who are also focused on the physical benefits say they feel less stressed after getting a massage due to the stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for its rest and relaxation response.
