When work or family life brings about stress and aches within your body, the last thing many of us want to do is ask for help. For some people, it’s just a natural response to ignore our stress and power through physical pain in order to keep up with our daily routines. Sometimes we get so used to neck pain or backaches that we can’t even remember life without them!

Working with a massage therapist is a great way to heal a condition that causes pain or aches due to stress. All it takes is a little bit of time out of your busy schedule to let a therapist help return your body to a healthy, pain-free state. There are many different types of massage therapy, but all of them have long-lasting benefits that will make you wish you’d tried it years ago!

Ula Katsoulis is a Philadelphia craniosacral therapist who has spent over two decades studying manual therapy and how it can improve quality of life. In this blog, she will talk about why, even for the busiest workaholic, massage therapy is worth a try.

A Philadelphia Craniosacral Therapist Who Can Help

Massage therapy may seem daunting at first, but as Philadelphia’s number-one craniosacral therapist, Ula guarantees these five benefits are worth stepping out of your comfort zone! Here are five reasons to try massage therapy in 2016:

  1. Better Quality of Sleep: When your neck is aching, it’s hard to relax, even once your head hits your pillow! Experts say that sleep deprivation can lead to decreased alertness, impaired memory and even a shorter life span. However, massage therapy can help you relax and really enjoy a solid snooze.
  2. Less Anxiety: For many, stress and anxiety go hand in hand. However, a few sessions with a skilled Philadelphia craniosacral therapist like Ula Katsoulis can slow down the seemingly endless clatter of your brain and teach you how to stay calm through stressful situations.
  3. More Energy: When you’re getting more sleep and have less anxiety, your body and mind are more alert and you’re less likely to get fatigued.
  4. Better Circulation: Massage therapy can increase blood flow, which improves body function and lowers blood pressure.
  5. Better Quality of Life: You would be amazed at the ways in which your life can change once your mind and body feel in synch again. Every day will have you feeling more alert and ready for whatever life throws at you!
