On-site chair massage helps to alleviate many of the symptoms associated with stress. Some of the most common symptoms include headaches and low energy levels. Tight neck and shoulder muscles restrict the flow of blood to the brain, resulting in poor oxygen supply, which in turn leads to decreased alertness and productivity.

Massage encourages blood flow to all areas of the body, easing headaches and leaving the client feeling more alert and focused. Improved circulation means more efficient elimination of toxins and waste products in the blood, thereby helping to maintain a healthy immune system.

On-site chair massage helps to:

• release muscle tension
• improve circulation
• lower blood pressure
• improve focus and concentration
• induce a state of relaxation
• relieve tension headaches
• increase energy
• strengthen the immune system
• create a sense of well-being

The Touch Therapy Institute at the University of Miami has conducted a number of studies about the effects of massage.
