Massage Decreases Chronic Pain

Far to many of us face our daily lives with chronic pain due to injuries or illness.

Not only does massage therapy help to correct the conditions that cause chronic pain, but it also acts in two ways to decrease the actual pain itself.

The first is by the trained touch of a massage therapist activating nerve receptor signals along myelinated nerve fibers to temporarily block chronic pain signals reaching the brain. The second is by th stimulated release of endorphins(the body's natural painkiller)into the brain and nervous system to reduce your feelings of pain and discomfort with out the use of unnatural drugs.
