Detoxing with Massage
Our environment is absolutely loaded with pollutants and toxic substances. While our bodies have natural ways to try to cleanse our system, sometimes there is just too much ‘stuff’ to clean out. As a massage therapist for 15 years I have seen how massage can help people, greatly reducing or even eliminating problems such as anxiety, allergies and fatigue. As the owner of Fremont Professional Massage and Bodyworks in Fremont California I am trying to increase awareness of how massage can assist our bodies, enhance our immune system and make us both healthier and happier individuals.

I've always known massage to be relaxing and helpful with anxiety but have never really thought about it as an aid to expelling pollutants. How often do your recommend getting a massage to assist the body with ridding itself of day to day pollutants? Would once a month be a good rule of thumb?
Yes it would! Of course each person is different and has different needs. Some people may work in an area that exposes them to a greater number of toxins and thus may choose to help their body more often. An important thing to remember is to drink lots of water after a massage. This really helps the body to clear the toxins that massage has helped release.
