Accent Therapeutic Massage

Introduction: I am a nationally certified massage therapist, well versed in relaxation, deep tissue, pregnancy, oncology, hot stones, reflexology, myofascial release, trigger point, craniosacral and chair massage. I travel to companies, bridal parties, homes and hospitals to work on patients/clients. In addition, I also work at a salon. Massage has been an integral part of my life, and it is my goal to continue my education on different modalities of massage. Massage decreases anxiety. For the same reason that a massage is relaxing, it can also soothe anxiety and depression. Massage reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol, resulting in lifted spirits and often lower blood pressure. It can also boost the neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine which are involved in depression. Massage can boost the immunity. Multiple studies, although often small, have linked massage to better functioning of the immune system. In one study in 2010, researchers found that massage increased a person's disease-fighting white blood cells. The stress-reducing powers of massage can also help keep you healthy.
