On March 13, the Wellness Committee is going to host a chair massage event in the Jones Room and the Woodruff Library. The event will be from 12:20 pm to 4:00 pm. There will be four therapists doing 10-minute massage sessions during that time, with a short break around 2:20 to 2:40. Sign up information will be sent out in the next week.
Many of us have never taken the plunge to enjoy massage therapy. Studies show that massage therapy:
- Reduces stress
- Improves circulation
- Reduces pain
- Eliminates toxins
- Improves flexibility
- Improves sleep
- Enhances immunity
- Reduces fatigue
- Alleviates depression and anxiety (source: Urban Nirvana)
Additionally, employers benefit by providing massage therapy at work with increased motivation, improved morale, greater company appreciation, less absenteeism, and greater productivity (source: Balance on Buffalo).
So, mark your calendars today and enjoy the benefits of massage therapy!
