Stress
Many medical conditions can be linked to stress. Excess stress can have a wide range of effects, anywhere from high blood pressure to headaches, back spasms to sleep disorders. Stress can easily result in tension throughout the body.
When contracted for a long period of time, muscles are actually being damaged and the body loses its overall efficiency. Massage therapy tracks down distortions throughout the body, corrects them and creates muscular equilibrium.
Receiving a massage at Kailua Massage Therapy gives you the opportunity to focus entirely on yourself for an hour or more. Considering the busy and stressful lives most of us lead, this usually has a very calming effect. This hour gives you the opportunity to become more aware of the tension in your body, how to release it, and how to prevent it.

How Massage Works:
Efficient blood flow is important to every system of the body and massage therapy helps improve circulation by aiding the movement of blood through the veins toward the heart. In turn, fresh blood moves through the arteries bringing oxygen and other nourishing materials to cells throughout the body.
This kind of healthy circulation helps us to think more clearly, metabolize food more efficiently, and possibly even resist disease. With proper circulation, metabolic waste materials exit the body, including lactic acid which stores itself in the tired muscles we have from exercise or overuse.
Massage also has a tranquilizing effect on the central nervous system by triggering the release of hormones called endorphin. These natural pain killers can leave us deeply relaxed with a sense of well-being. Come and relax, restore, and renew at Kailua Massage Therapy.
*One Hour of Massage is equivalent to 7-8 hours of sleep for the body*
