Massage Therapy For Kids

Category: Massage

Massage therapy for kids is for all ages from newborn babies to the elderly. Getting a massage between the ages of 13-16 can help improve the growing of the teen’s mental health, biological health and their emotional health. These teens benefit from massage therapy due to stress, anxiety and sleeplessness accompanied with their daily life. When a teen is under stress their stress hormones kick in making it hard for the body to stay healthy. A healthy regiment of massage is proven to reduce the stress hormones and increase happy hormones in the body naturally. Massage therapy is going to help the teen relax and enjoy life with a little less emotional stress.

Being a teenager has some drawbacks. They get soreness from sports and being active during the day. Changes of the body happen a lot during this time because of puberty and hormone fluctuation. Puberty can’t be stopped and there are ever changing growth spurts throughout the teen years. They are on a roller coaster of hormones and need the experience of calming effects of massage. Massage therapy for teenagers can help with the growing pains, body image and the learning to feel comfortable in one’s body. This keeps a teen connected to his/her body even as it changes in bewildering ways. Getting a regular massage helps promote muscle and joint health, increasing the flexibility all while improving circulation. These are all benefits to the active teen lifestyle.

Teens worry a lot about their bodies. Biological changes happen whether we like them to or not. The teenage body is in the midst of transformation, exponential growth and development. That is where massage therapy comes in and can be greatly effective.

Massage therapy is a great way to deal with all the physical and emotional turmoil of this tender period of one’s life.
