In a 2010 study, scientists at Cedars-Sinai examined the physical effects of massage therapy. They measured subjects’ hormones and blood cells before and after massage, and they learned something amazing: the 29 people in the study who received just 45 minutes of Swedish massage had an immune-boosting response when compared to 24 participants in a control group.  They also noticed that the subjects’ cortisol levels (a stress hormone) went down!

And those benefits came after just a single massage. Think of how much benefit you can receive when you incorporate massage as a regular part of your wellness routine! That’s exactly why we’re giving you a special opportunity to purchcase multiple massages at a substantial discount.

During Massage Therapy Awareness week, October 20-26: stop in the center to purchase a package of 3 or 5 massages, and you’ll get 15% off! This is the perfect time of year to rest, rejuvenate, and prepare for the holiday season ahead. You have an entire 12 months to use the massages in your package.

And while you’re at the center, take advantage of a free chair massage! Judith Lehman, a nationally certified massage therapist on our staff, will be offering 10-minute chair massages during the following times:

• Monday, October 21: 2-4pm
• Friday, October 25: 5-7pm

If you’ve never experienced the therapeutic relaxation of a professional massage, now’s the time!
