One key player in our immune system is the natural killer cells (NK cells). These powerful cells are responsible for fighting off harmful invaders. Research has shown that regular massages can increase the activity of NK cells, making them more efficient in their defense against diseases.

But that’s not all! Massage therapy offers a host of other perks for your immune system. By reducing stress and promoting relaxation, massages can boost immune function through the release of endorphins, the “feel-good” hormones. These little warriors work to improve your overall well-being and prevent the release of stress hormones that can weaken your immune system over time. After a good massage, there is no doubt that you will feel amazing.

Additionally, massages have a positive impact on blood circulation and lymph flow, which are essential for a healthy immune system. By improving circulation, massages ensure that your body’s defense mechanisms are reaching every nook and cranny to wage war against harmful pathogens. And the reduction of inflammation further supports your immune system’s fight against invaders. ️❤️
