Therapeutic massage is an age old remedy and health practice. Massage has been found to enhance general health and well being. These benefits have been supported by scientific research. Therapeutic massage is effective in combating the negative effects of aging. Some of these include:

• Enhances tissue elasticity and joint flexibility
• Improves circulation
• Promotes healthy vibrant skin
• Improves immune system
• Relieves muscle aches and stiffness
• Improves balance, coordination, mobility
• Promotes more restful sleep
• May lessen the need for pain and sleeping medication

Age, illness, or disability can rob us of the capacity to be active or to enjoy many of the things that others take for granted. Stacy Clark, Licensed Massage Therapist from Fort Sanders Parkwest Therapy Center, will be discussing the benefits of medical massage and showing us different techniques on February 24 at 11:30 at the Frank Strang Senior Center. Please call 541-4500 to reserve your spot.
