Over 50 But You Just Don't Bounce Back Like You Used To?
Massage is not just a luxury. It's a way to a healthier, happier life!
You wake up in the morning and it takes a few minutes before you can stand upright. Or you find yourself going down stairs slowly and taking steps one at a time, thinking to yourself, “If there was an emergency, how would I get out of the house quickly and safely at this pace?” All of your experiences throughout the years have finally caught up to you – seemingly all at once. Life is cumulative and your body feels every memory. I can relate. I'm over 50, too!
These days, most of us remain active throughout our lives, but the body just doesn’t bounce back like it used to. Back pain may linger longer. Muscle pulls can happen more easily. Those aches and pains are more frequent.
It doesn’t have to be that way. A regular massage can help to heal wear and tear on your muscles and tendons and can also help you manage the pain from a chronic or acute injury. Making massage a part of your wellness routine can also help to prevent future injuries and keep those aches and pains at bay - one more reason to book a regular massage.
According to the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA), "A growing body of research supports the health benefits of massage therapy for conditions such as stress, fibromyalgia, low-back pain and more. Find out how you can benefit from adding massage therapy to your health and wellness routine."
