What to Expect from A Massage?

Chair Massage or Seated Massage Take a break during or at the end of your day for a fully-clothed, relaxing 15- or 30-minute chair massage! Sitting in a massage chair opens up the back muscles, relieves strain on the neck and provides a gentle respite for eyes. Even 15 minutes of massage to the neck, back, arms and hands can increase circulation, lower blood pressure, returning energy levels and helping to keep the body injury free. Chair massage, along with stretching and strengthening exercises, can relieve chronic neck and shoulder pain, stress headaches, and symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. According to David Palmer, co-developer of the first massage chair and founder of the TouchPro Institute in San Francisco, most office-related physical symptoms can be attributed to loss of circulation. Tight muscles caused by stress and sitting behind a desk all day can impede blood and lymph flow through the body. The result is mental fogginess, decreased energy and susceptibility to repetitive stress injuries, like carpal tunnel syndrome.
