Relaxation Massage A Form Of Medicine

By Julie Polson


Relaxation massage is often more underestimated than it should be. It has been shown that 90 percent of illness and deaths are brought on by stress. It is a wonder that so few people comparatively speaking on a worldwide scale do not make use of this form of preventative therapy.

Reasons that some will not go for a series of treatments do range from religious factors such as modesty and not uncovering ones body in the presence of somebody else. Other reasons may include the notion that it is an unnecessary expenditure.

Most if not all human beings throughout their lifetime will at one stage or another go and visit a Doctor. The reason for doing this is self evident whether it be for the treatment of influenza or for a more serious condition effecting for example the heart. It is often the case that people in general will not go into the reasons of why they needed to see a Doctor in the first place.

More often than not we treat our bodies like motor car engines. If something goes wrong we take them into the medical clinic, get them checked out and buy goods such as medicines so that we can get back onto the road of life and proceed in making a living in the shortest possible time possible. Some Doctors themselves will profess to the fact that stress is the main cause of illness and that prevention is better than cure.

It is the usual reason of stress that plays on our physical bodies and causes them to break down. A headache is a symptom of what is possibly an unhealthy lifestyle. When the body becomes overloaded due to bad eating habits or emotional traumas, it breaks down for a reason so that we can assess as to why we feel the way we do and how to better our health going forward.

Television programs such as the Dr. Oz show are hammering the cause of illness to be primarily due to stress. He also goes as far as in suggesting ways to overcome illness and fatigue which does cause the onset of major debilitating and life threatening illnesses. One such method is going for your weekly hour session of relaxation massage.

Relaxation massage does more for one than mere pill popping. Pill popping addresses the immediate problem but does not prevent the long term problem as long as you carry on with your medication. Medication on one hand does offer respite although by paying attention to your body and giving it the relief it needs on a weekly basis will prolong its ability to stay healthy and functional in the long run.
