If you’re looking for a way to jumpstart your weight loss journey, you might want to consider adding deep tissue massage to your routine. That’s right – massage isn’t just for relaxation; it can also be a powerful tool in your weight loss arsenal. Studies have shown that deep tissue massage can help the body burn calories, reduce cellulite, and even boon athletic performance. Here’s a closer look at how deep tissue massage can help you lose weight and keep it off for good.
How Deep Tissue Massage Can Help You Lose Weight
Deep tissue massage is a type of massage that targets the deepest layers of muscle tissue. This type of massage is typically slower and more intense than other types of massages, but it can be extremely effective in promoting weight loss. One study found that participants who received deep tissue massages burned more calories in the 24 hours after their treatment than those who didn’t receive massages. What’s more, the participants who received massages also had reduced levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which has been linked to increased appetite and cravings.
Another study looked at the effects of deep tissue massage on cellulite. Cellulite is a type of fat that tends to deposit in areas like the thighs and buttocks. It’s often difficult to get rid of, but the good news is that deep tissue massage can help. The study found that participants who received regular deep tissue massages experienced reduced cellulite deposition in their thighs over the course of eight weeks.
Finally, deep tissue massage can also help improve athletic performance. One study looked at the effects of deep tissue massage on cyclists who were training for a race. The study found that those who received regular massages improved their power output by an average of 3%.
If you’re looking for a way to jumpstart your weight loss journey, consider adding deep tissue massage to your routine. Studies have shown that this type of massage can help burn calories, reduce cellulite, and even improve athletic performance. So if you’re ready to start losing weight and keeping it off for good, book a session with a licensed masseuse today!
