Massage can ease your arthritis symptoms. According to Tiffany Field, PhD, director of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine, who studies on the benefits of massage, including on people with arthritis that regular massage of muscles and joints can lead to a significant reduction in pain for people with arthritis. It’s a hands-on therapy, based on manually manipulating soft-tissues, loosens muscles and joints, promotes blood flow and relaxation, improves range of motion, and overall function of the joints. It also promotes the clearing of lactic acid and other waste products which can impair joint and muscle movement and cause pain. Try a massage and give your brain a chance to stop focusing on the pain. Looking for a Spa? DoubleOwl site will allow you to find the nearest Health Spa location for massage.
