The Benefits of Massage for Students

12/4/2018

1. Lower Levels of Stress, Anxiety, and Depression

According to the National College Health Assessment, students are really stressed out these days!  The good news is research has shown massage therapy is effective stress relief.  Massage therapy has been shown to boost levels of the "feel-good" hormone dopamine, while at the same time lowering levels of the "stress-hormone" cortisol.

2. Better Sleep

Massage therapy has been shown to reduce fatigue and improve sleep. Massage therapy can help you get the sleep you need to stay focused and healthy.  Not only has research shown that massage therapy reduces levels of the "stress-hormone" cortisol, massage also increases levels of serotonin, a precursor of melatonin, a neurotransmitter critical for good sleep. ​

3.  Improved Study, Focus, and Attention

Students with ADHD can improve mood and classroom attention and focus with regular massage therapy.  Headaches, especially tension headaches, frequently get in the way of study and sleep, with up to 30-50% of young people suffering from regular headaches.  Get the relief you need to stay focused--massage offers effective relief for tension headaches.

4.  Immune Boosting

In addition to lowering cortisol levels, and increasing our "feel-good" neurotransmitters, massage therapy also improves immune function by increasing our body’s natural "killer T cells”  and lymphocytes, which fight off viruses and protect us from infection and disease.  Stressed students crammed in close quarters all day is a breeding ground for germs.  Give yourself a boost--research shows that even a single session of Swedish Massage produces measurable biologic effects! 

5.  Stay Active and Fit

"Freshman fifteen", anyone?  All of that study and stress can lead to increased levels of cortisol, which can slow metabolism, trigger inflammation, and encourage accumulation of belly fat.  In addition to revving your metabolism, massage can also help out with any stiffness or sore muscles after that great workout!  Massage therapy has been shown to have major benefits for exercise, including enhanced performance and cardiovascular health.  It is also effective for pain management, faster recovery, and prevention of injuries, so that you can keep going. Massage therapy can be a key part of maintaining peak fitness!

I find it amazing how trying out massage therapy can give you several benefits, such as getting your proper sleep pattern back. My friend finds it hard to sleep because of his schoolwork and requirements lately. Hopefully, he'd consider trying out massage therapy as a way to unwind.
