Massage therapy has grown so much in recent years that it's now on par with other complementary services like chiropractic and physical therapy, says the Associated Bodywork & Massage Professionals (ABMP). According to a study they commissioned, two out of five adults have visited a massage therapist, and 12 percent of American adults had at least one massage. "What is striking about the overall survey results is that there are very few detractors, few negative expressions about massage," says Bob Benson, president of ABMP. Some 96 percent of those who had at least one massage said they had favorable feelings toward massage therapists. The medical establishment, too, is embracing massage as a legit and beneficial form of treatment. The AMTA reports that one national survey found over half (54 percent) of primary care physicians and family practitioners would encourage their patients to pursue massage therapy as a treatment. Further, people surveyed over the last three years said that when they discuss massage therapy with their physicians, more than 70 percent responded favorably. Even though massage is fast becoming the newest health "trend" in America, it is hardly a new phenomenon. Many ancient cultures embraced massage as a form of medical care. Egyptian tomb paintings show people being massaged, traditional Indian medicine, or Ayurveda, has long used massage with aromatic oils and spices, and massage has roots in Chinese, Greek and Roman cultures. It has even been said that Julius Caesar may have received one daily for neuralgia. People use massage for many reasons. Here are just some of the health-enhancing benefits of massage, according to the AMTA: Low Back Pain: A study by Beth Israel-Deaconess Center for Alternative Medicine Research and Education and the Center for Health Studies in Seattle found that massage provided long-term pain relief for those suffering from chronic low back pain. Emotional and Physical Benefits for Cancer Patients: Women who have undergone a lumpectomy, mastectomy or breast reconstruction due to breast cancer have reported less pain and swelling after surgery by using massage. They also report that, emotionally, massage helps them to feel reconnected to their bodies. Less Pain after Bypass Surgery: A study at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles found that massage therapy reduces pain and muscle spasms in patients who have undergone heart bypass surgery. Sixty percent of those in the massage group said they'd continue to pay for massage therapy out-of-pocket. Boost the Immune System: Research has shown that massage can increase the immune system's cytotoxic capacity, or the activity level of the body's natural "killer cells," while decreasing the number of T-cells. The result is an improvement in the body's immune system function. leeanne@eauxclaywva.com We also have available, KING TONIC (service mark by Turtle Island) pure crystalline MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) Late this summer Turtle Island will be making its annual pilgrimage to the Berkeley Springs, West Virginia nationally known City Spa to collect the healing spring waters to mix the External ClayPaks that will be ready for purchase late Summer 2012.
