Deep-Tissue Massage reduces blood pressure
Hello everyone-
A new study "The Effects of Deep-Tissue Massage Therapy on Blood Pressure and Heart Rate" was recently released in Massage Magazine. In that study deep-tissue massage was found to reduce blood pressure in 263 volunteers who participated in the study.
The participates were of the average age of 48 and all participants had significant pain prior to the study and experienced moderate or severe overall muscle spasm/pain. The study took place in Lubbock, TX between November 2004 and March 2006.
The data showed that an average systolic pressure reduction of 10.4 millimeters of mercury, a diastolic pressure reduction of 5.3 millimeters of mercury and a mean arterial pressure reduction of 7.0 millimeters of mercury. The results of the heart rate data showed an average heart rate reduction of 10.8 beats per minute.
This study demonstrates a high correlation between deep-tissue massage and reduction of blood pressure and heart rate. More research is needed but it seems apparent that deep-tissue massage will not only help relieve muscle pain and strain, but will also help lower blood pressure. Great for health and wellness.
