Trouble Sleeping? Massage Therapy Can Help

 Most of us know that a good night’s sleep is an important part of your overall health, yet many people struggle with getting enough shut-eye. The American Massage Therapy Association states that massage therapy can help to improve sleep for people of all ages suffering from various conditions.  Sleep deprivation is a serious problem in the U.S. which contributes to motor vehicle accidents as well as a host of chronic conditions such as heart disease, depression, type 2 diabetes and obesity.  

Massage therapy is indicated to improve sleep in children, adolescents, adults and the elderly suffering from various health conditions such as chronic pain, cancer, fibromyalgia, migraines, psychiatric disorders and many other conditions.  Insomnia is often a symptom of other underlying causes, improving sleep can improve symptoms of other conditions.
