Touch is essential to our health. Humans need to touch and need to be touched, just like we need food and water. Touching can reassure us, relax us and comfort us like nothing else. The importance of touch is so basic that, all too frequently, we tend to take it for granted, just as we do breathing.

One of the best ways to fill this essential need for touch is through massage and bodywork. There are many physical, as well as emotional benefits of massage. Massage satisfies our need for caring, nurturing touch; it fosters a feeling of well-being, and reduces levels of anxiety. In addition, massage promotes a relaxed state of mental alertness and increases our mind-body awareness. Physically, massage helps to relieve stress and aids in relaxation, helps relieve muscle tension and soreness and provides greater joint flexibility and range of motion. Other physical benefits include improved circulation, strengthening the immune system, relief from tension-related headaches and a reduction in blood pressure.

Such a simple thing, touch. But the connection between touch and well-being is far more than skin deep, it's essential.
