How Meditation, Massage and Yoga Can Change Your Body

How Massage, Meditation and Yoga can Change Your Body… 

  • Your brain releases happy chemicals -you get a boost of serotonin, dopamine and endorphins, all are linked to a good mood. 

  • Pain diminishes -it appears to change the activity in key pain processing regions of the brain in one study participants experienced a 40% reduction in pain intensity. 

  • Blood pressure drops -the effect is and not just temporary.  Studies show that regular sessions of daily meditation and monthly massage can play a major role in stabilizing.

  • Digestion runs more smoothly -stress triggers the stomach churning “fight or flight” instinct by shutting down digestion.  When relaxed, the body re-boots the parasympathetic nervous system which stimulates digestion. 

  • Swelling subsides -it can reduce stress induced inflammation from several inflammatory conditions including arthritis and asthma.
