Massage, the New Medicine
In Chicago, massage therapy is exploding in growth. This is due to the education to the world on the power of alternative medicine. What is humorous is that it is called “alternative” medicine. These alternatives were around for thousands of years before our evasive modern medicine techniques and treatments.
In the massage therapy world there is focus on the healing of energy systems in the body. When temporary or chronic issues present themselves, massage has been proven to alleviate pain and many other symptoms while promoting a more intensive healing. Insurance companies are now accepting massages for a co pay. With this acceptance, massage therapists are in high demand. Offices around the country are paying massage therapists to come in and conduct chair massages on their employees during lunch breaks. The idea behind this is to push employee satisfaction and performance improvement.
Of course, most of us would rather have the full body massage. We usually only have time for a 30 minute massage but some of us take advantage of the full hour. Often in such need of an hour, we leave the salon dizzy, thirsty and wanting to just take a nap!
Massage therapy in any form is popular in this country. It is mainstream healing alternative to chiropractor or “modern” medicine. By and large, citizens want a non-invasive treatment for their ailments or common conditions. When are you going to allow yourself enjoy a Chicago massage?
