Why do you need to treat yourself to a deep tissue massage this half term???
Sports & deep tissue massage aren’t just about relaxation — they create measurable physiological benefits:

🩸 Increases circulation → delivers oxygen and nutrients to muscles, speeding up recovery.
🧠 Reduces cortisol (the stress hormone) while boosting serotonin & dopamine — helping your body shift from “fight or flight” to “rest and repair.”
🧬 Breaks down adhesions in fascia and muscle fibers, improving mobility and reducing pain.
💪 Enhances lymphatic flow, clearing metabolic waste like lactic acid and inflammation byproducts.

Regular deep tissue or sports massage = faster recovery, better performance, and a body that stays in the game. 🏃‍♀️⚡

Neck pain work today, ✨ GB10 & GB11 are located just behind the ear and are powerful for:
💆‍♀️ Relieving neck stiffness and shoulder tension
🌀 Calming headaches and dizziness
🎧 Soothing ear and jaw discomfort
🌬 Supporting energy flow through the head and neck

When combined with points like the Huatuojiaji (HJJ) points, these treatments target both the muscles and the underlying meridian imbalance — helping you move, rest, and think more freely.
