Stretches

Massage is "structured touching" or touching with purpose. This purpose may be directed towards relieving muscle pain and stress, increasing body awareness, or bringing equilibrium to a life in crisis. Tangible outcomes can be experienced in the active stimulation of skin, lymph and blood, relaxation of the muscles and nervous system, elimination of metabolic waste, stretching of connective tissues and release of a tranquilizing effect into the entire organism through the parasympathetic nervous system. Massage is a healthy way of handling stress. Therapeutic massage is increasingly being recommended by doctors to complement traditional medicine as research proves its healing effects.
