Touch Heals
Vitamin "T" for touch seems to be as essential as sunlight. Babies who are held are more alert and healthier. Without hugs and caresses, people of all ages sicken and grow starved for touch. The organ for touch is the skin and it stretches over the whole body. Touch stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's answer to tranquilizers and stimulants. Just as the introduction of pets into nursing homes and chronic care wards answers some of the need for touch, so also has massage become a welcome activity in recent years.
Massage is the skillful application of touch to promote relaxation, health and well being. A professional massage is a beautiful way of reducing stress, strain, and muscular and mental tension. This mini-vacation from stress is a way to pamper and rejuvenate your sore, tired and overworked body. Touch is vital from birth to death. Whether it is used to comfort, ease pain or pamper and nurture, massage is for EVERY BODY.
We are now encouraging you to be included, not only in the emotional gain but also the physical improvement that begins at the subtle level that can be attained with a few appointments a year. Being healthy means doing something about it.
