About 24 million Americans have migraines.  Sufferers of migraine headaches may occur at any age but commonly begin between ages 10 through 40; in addition, women are more susceptible than men.

A medical journal titled the Annals of Behavioral Medicine published a 2006 study that reported massage therapy recipients exhibited fewer migraines and improved sleep quality than the control group.  Another medical periodical titled International Journal of Neuroscience published a 1998 study that found massage therapy reduced the occurrence of headaches, sleep disturbances and distress symptoms in adults with migraines.

Research illustrates massage therapy may facilitate greater comfort and promote greater functional everyday living.  Improve your quality of life through massage and bodywork.

People incorporate massage therapy into their lifestyle because it improves their mental and physical health and the benefits are experienced immediately.  The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine recently published a study that examined the effects of a single session of Swedish massage.  The news is exciting!  The research concludes that a single massage increased the number of circulating white blood cells and produces measurable biological effects.  These findings may lead to the implication that massage therapy is beneficial for managing inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.  Massage therapy helps to boost the immune system.  We are steps closer to confirming massage therapy is good medicine.
