What is Massage?

Massage is a therapy in which muscles and other soft tissues of the body are manipulated to improve health and well-being. There are many different varieties and techniques. Massage has been practiced as a healing therapy for centuries in nearly every culture around the world. It helps relieve muscle tension, reduce stress, and instills a feeling of calmness. Although massage affects the body as a whole, there are also many benefits.
