  4. Improved immune function: Massage has been shown to boost the immune system by increasing the activity of natural killer cells, which help to fight off infections and diseases.
  5. Reduced stress and anxiety: Massage therapy can help to reduce stress and anxiety by promoting relaxation and reducing the production of stress hormones.
  6. Improved sleep: Massage therapy can improve sleep quality by reducing muscle tension and promoting relaxation, which can lead to better sleep.
