Why a massage is beneficial between workouts!

back pain massageWe all have experienced aching muscles after working out, especially if it has been a while since we hit the gym. The pain is enough to make you want to throw in the towel and never workout again. But we know to get the results we are looking for we must persevere and work through the pain. However, you don't need to suffer as much as you think, as long as you treat yourself to a regular massage between workouts. 

Getting a massage after an enduring time at the gym can help our muscles recover faster and greatly reduces the pain we often feel right after a rigorous routine. A massage after exercising not only improves circulation but also helps to remove lactic acid and other waste products built up in the muscles.

A post workout massage also improves our bodies’ flexibility by loosening and stretching tendons and muscles. Having great flexibility helps avoid injury and ensures a better work out every time. 

We all know working out not only improves our bodies physically but it can also have a positive impact on our mental wellbeing as well. The same goes for a massage, the better you treat your body the better you will feel mentally. 

A massage can be added to your over physical fitness routine to help you stay fit the best way possible. If you would like to schedule a massage with Kristin call today!
