Feel Better...The Massage Plus Difference Massage Therapy Mooresville NC

Massage Plus distinguishes itself by integrating massage with mindfulness to elevate your wellness journey. 

Working in the mental health field has helped me truly understand the intricate connection between one’s physical and mental health. It also helps me to provide my clients with an experience rooted in trust, compassion, and open communication.

Massage therapy is a science and an art that intertwines with your mental well-being. Scientific studies have shown that consistent massage can help to stabilize mood. Because our bodies hold memories, stress, and emotions, massage therapy can help to release emotional blockages. Think of them as “Emotional Knots.”

Headaches, back pain, and chronic discomfort...Oh, my!

Sometimes we spend so much time in our heads being stressed that our body uses pain as a messenger letting us know it's time to relax. Oftentimes, though, we ignore our body's whispers and only pay attention when our body yells at us!  

So often we expect stress, wondering "When will the other shoe drop?" We physically hold this tension in our bodies as we brace for impact. Stress has been linked to a wide range of physiological symptoms that have an influence on health. The body reacts to mental stress by releasing more cortisol, the hormone that prepares the body for flight or fight. High cortisol levels can increase the risk of developing anxiety and depression. It can also raise blood pressure, impair cognition, weaken the immune system, and have an impact on weight gain. In response to stress, the body-mind can get caught in a complex feedback loop that is difficult to break.

Numerous scientific studies show how our ideas, emotions, beliefs, and attitudes directly affect our physiology and vice versa, building on these two basic instances of the mind-body connection.

Tears are the body's response to sadness. Your face flushes with humiliation when you experience shame. The relationship between your mood and your bodily actions is also reciprocal.

Your mood and attitude are affected by your diet, amount of activity, sleep quality, and even how you sit. (Remember how being told to "sit up straight" is meant to help us pay better attention and focus.)



Research Shows...

According to studies, the reason why the mind and body are connected is because our body's chemical components are constantly being used to communicate with all facets of our existence—physical, mental, and emotional. Neuropeptides establish a two-way communication loop that permits information to travel both ways: from the brain to every part of the body and from the body to the brain. Furthermore, this kind of communication is flexible and adapts its form and vibration to suit the needs of the recipient. The endocrine, immunological, and neurochemical systems' cells and glands are inundated with a plethora of messages that convey this demand in the form of chemicals and energy, forming a complicated network.

Our emotions, ideas, beliefs, and attitudes interact with the physical body through a huge network of chemicals and energy that are constantly circulating within the body. Not only does our physical body hold the chemical imprint of emotions, but it also undergoes structural changes as a result of those imprinted feelings. This is known as the "body-mind."



Regular Massage Has Cumulative Benefits

Regular massage has a cumulative effect to help reduce anxiety and depression, improve sleep patterns, and increase overall emotional stability. Essentially, you're training yourself to expect relaxation, and it becomes easier and easier to let go of stress. The "Massage Therapy mind-body connection" ensures that your mental well-being is nurtured alongside physical healing.

Massage therapy and bodywork instantly draws your focus away from the mind chatter and into your body, allowing you to be present in the moment. Massage therapy can offer profound relief by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and promoting the release of endorphins—your body’s natural painkillers.

Restoring the body-mind's balance can be accomplished with the help of massage treatment and mindfulness. Massage therapy fosters the mind-body connection by using physical touch to alleviate tension, reduce stress, and promote relaxation, which in turn can enhance mental well-being.

The practice stimulates the release of endorphins and serotonin, which are natural mood lifters, while also reducing levels of cortisol, the stress hormone. This holistic approach not only addresses physical discomfort but also supports emotional and psychological health, creating a harmonious balance between the mind and body.
