While massage has numerous indisputable benefits for our health and overall wellbeing, it also positively affects our appearance.
Let’s look at the anti-aging and beautifying effects of face and body massages.
Face Massage
With aging, our skin loses its elasticity and firmness. Massage helps us fight with aging signs by stimulating blood circulation and oxygen flow to the skin, boosting collagen production and cell renewal. Regular facial massage helps achieve supple, younger-looking skin with less fine lines and wrinkles. It also improves lymphatic drainage and can reduce under-eye bags and swelling in the face area.
Due to its rejuvenating effect on the skin, massage is considered an alternative to some invasive treatments, such as collagen and Botox injections. You can incorporate different types of this natural face-lifting therapy to your daily skincare routine and massage your face for a couple of minutes with special serums, oils, and creams to get more radiant, toned and glowing complexion.
Body Massage
Body massage also contributes to a younger-looking appearance by improving lymphatic drainage and stimulating skin and muscles. It helps eliminate toxins from the body, bring oxygenated blood to the cells, and accelerate the regeneration process. The swelling and cellulite appearance can also be reduced. At the same time, massage therapy decreases levels of the stress hormone cortisol and increases the production of happy hormones serotonin and dopamine. Reduced stress allows us to rest better and slow down aging at the cellular level.
Improved posture is another positive effect of massage that makes us look younger. The therapy relaxes tense muscles and stiff joints resulting in the increased range of motion, reduced back pain and better posture.
There are many types of massages helping with different health conditions. It is highly recommended to consult a healthcare professional before starting a massage therapy to identify which form of this treatment would be beneficial in your case.
