The mind, which
before massage is in a perturbed, restless, vacillating and -even despondent
state, becomes after massage, calm, quiet, peaceful and subdued; in fact,
the wearied and worried mind has been converted into a mind restful, placid,
and refreshed.
Dr Stretch Dowse, Eminent Victorian
Physician, 1887.
There are now a number of research papers demonstrating the beneficial
effects of massage therapy in relation to the physiological and
psycho-logical aspects of stress and the latest controlled study conducted at the Touch
Research Institute, University of Miami School of Medicine, Florida, USA
shows once again that massage therapy has an important role to play in the
alleviation of stress and stress-induced illnesses.
In the study two times every week for five weeks,
twenty-six adults were given a chair massage and twenty four adults were
asked to relax in the massage chair for 15 minutes to be used as controls. This small-scale study suggested that
massage
therapy offers benefits in not just alleviating the physiological effects of
anxiety, but also in improving mental alertness.
