Last Saturday, I had a deep tissue massage. It was so good, I was just plain stupid when it was done – I was so relaxed that I could hardly figure out how to get myself dressed again! If you haven’t tried a deep tissue massage, it isn’t for the faint of heart – it will hurt. But it’s a good hurt. I’ve had a sore shoulder for a couple of weeks – and I do believe it’s fixed now!
Studies have shown that massage therapy is effective for a lot of ailments – not just sprains, strains and other sore muscles. Did you know it can help with anxiety? Or headaches? Or insomnia? And these days, it isn’t hard to find a place to get an affordable massage treatment from the mall to your gym to salons and spas, massage therapists are pretty easy to find these days.

I prefer to get my massages where they use pretty smelling oils and play new age music but a massage in a chair in the mall can be just as effective – it’s all up to you. But if you’ve been achy and sore and out of sorts, a massage may be just the thing you need!
