Nuru massage is a type of body-to-body massage that originated in Japan. It involves the use of a special, thick gel to allow for smooth and slippery movement. It’s known to improve relaxation and physical connection.
1. Provides Pain Relief:
The relief of tension in the muscles helps to stimulate the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, reducing discomfort in an entirely natural way and increasing flexibility throughout the body.
2. Blood Circulation:
Exposing the body to heated rooms such as steam rooms or saunas increase the pulse rate by as much as 30 percent. This allows the body to pump more blood throughout the body to improve circulation overall. Experts believe that steam rooms with lower levels are capable of normalizing blood pressure to improve heart function.
3. Calm a Headache:
Massage decreases cortisol, the stress hormone that can tighten muscles, triggering a tension headache. Studies show simple neck and shoulder massage reduced both the number of chronic headaches people got and how long each one lasted.
