Your therapist might ask you to drink lots of water after your treatment. You might ask why?
There are a few reasons to this!
Massage increases the circulation of both the blood and lymphatic system. Working out the tension in the muscles releases metabolic waste. That increased circulation and the muscle kneading promotes pumping of fluid out of the soft tissue into the circulatory system, where it heads to the kidneys to be flushed out of the body.
Drinking water supports the elimination of waste from the body, aids in a healthy circulation, and helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles and organs. It also is a great way of keeping hydrated throughout the day!
