Spring is back! The air is fresh, the snow is melting, and soon the Minnesota greenery will be among us. I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait! With the warmer weather, now we can do more of the activities that have been buried under the snow like hiking, gardening, outdoor walks, biking, going on a picnic and more. When we don’t do activities for a long time, it can be a little bit of a shock when our bodies can’t keep up back where we left off. That’s why we are here to remind you that massages can help get your body back to moving and rejuvenate after a bit of a winter hibernation.
Stretching - After being idle in the winter, feeling stiff is going to be a common problem. Before engaging in physical activity, you should always stretch (even if it is an activity you do often). You should also stretch after that activity, as it can keep your muscles loosened and flexible. Make sure you keep proper breathing and focus on the muscle(s) you are stretching are key to making sure you don’t strain yourself during this. Pairing stretching and massage can be a great combination that relieves soreness and tension. Pain After Over-Exterting Yourself - If you thought you could go on a 3-mile hike after “hibernating” for months, how are you feeling now? Most people will not feel the best. Even after stretching, injuries or over-exertion can happen. Getting a massage after over-exertion can allow for quicker recovery. Decreased muscle stiffness, decreased joint inflammation, improved flexibility, and overall less pain and soreness are all ways that massage can help your body restore itself. Anxiety - A little stressed out about all the spring cleaning you have to do? Don’t worry, we get it. Take a breath, and come get a massage! A massage can reduce stress hormones and improve your mood. Our massage services will be catered to exactly what you need, and we can ensure a rejuvenating experience that will make you feel ready to tackle those spring projects. Daylight Savings - Even though we lost an hour of sleep in March, we are getting more and more sunshine into the evening. This can bring increased energy, increased feeling of wellness, and improved mood. There’s no mystery between the correlation. Being able to enjoy more of our day, and have warmer weather, pairing it with a massage is the ultimate way to really soak in the greatness. Allergies - Spring allergies don’t come to play. The snow melting brings mold, and the pollen coming out to boost the ecosystem can cause quite the allergies. While massages don’t get rid of them, it can definitely help reduce your symptoms. Massages can reduce inflammation, allow decongestion and lymph drainage, and improve sleep quality. Fresh Start - Soon the flowers will bloom, and so will you! Getting a massage will rejuvenate your physical and mental well-being for the fresh start of the springtime. Relax, allow growth, and feel brand-new with a massage! There are so many activities and new beginnings that spring brings, and we want you to feel ready to tackle them all. A massage can help you shed the winter sluggishness and be at your full-potential. Book your massage today so you can welcome and embrace this new season! |
