EXCERPTS:
"Massage
can support you throughout your recovery in a number of ways.
Massage can relieve tension, improve your physical health,
and give you more energy to face life’s challenges. It
can comfort and support you emotionally through a time of difficult
change. Massage is also a safe place to experience positive
touch and to reconnect with your body and your emotions."
"The
safe, comforting, and non-sexual touch of massage can help
you focus on feeling your body again. You can experience your
body as a source of good feelings. Because massage cares for
your body without judging, it can help you accept your body,
and yourself, just as you are." |
