Approximately 50 to 70 million Americans suffer from sleep issues impacting their health and wellness. The world around us is going faster and faster and often we forget to take a deep breath and relax. We are running from meeting to meeting, catching appointments and are stretching our days to the maximum. Often this means that we cut our hours of sleep. Cutting sleep is a big mistake and can not only offset healthy eating and exercise habits; it can actually harm the body. Studies by the Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic show that lack of sleep can harm the immune system, increase stress, and even increase the risk of getting into a car accident. Insufficient sleep can lead to long-term serious health issues. On average an adult requires approximately 7 to 9 hours a sleep per night to allow the body to recover from all the daily demands and be refreshed the next day.
How often do we work 10 to 12 hour days, follow it by chores at home, help our kids with school work, and then solving the world’s other litte problems too? By the end of the day when it is time to rest our mind still does not stop and we are unable to sleep. This lack of sleep can cause diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, obesity and depression.
There is a simple sleep remedy that will help us to relax and fall asleep. Massage therapy can help our body and mind to wind down and improve sleep habits. In several studies it was identified that massage can improve sleep in different age groups and individuals with different symptoms.
During massage therapy the body releases the calming neurotransmitter serotonin which helps the body to relax. Worries about finances, relationships, and other issues will be on pause and you can fall sound asleep. It was found that people who received 30 minute massage twice a week for five weeks experienced less pain and improved sleep.
Often the problem is that we have trouble finding or making the time to schedule two massage appointments for 30 minutes per week. There is travel and wait time, and the 30 minute massage commitment can quickly require over one hour time commitment. That is time we didn’t have to begin with. Yes, a shiatsu massage is amazing and time spent in a wellness spa is so rewarding, but it is not the solution to daily sleep issues. How are we supposed to sleep if we are running to and from our massage appointment and recalculating our budgets to include the extra cost of the massages? We don’t have to! We can have an in home solution that doesn’t require appointments, drive or wait time! An in home massage and wellness systems allows us to relax at our time in the comfort of our own home. A gentle 3 minute massage can increase our sleep time by up to 35 minutes. That is 35 more minutes for the body to relax and reenergize and be ready for the next day.
