 Massage Therapy for Addictions

Individuals in the early stages of treatment often experience an uncomfortable transition period between their body and mind beginning the process of healing. Summer Sky uses therapeutic massages as a powerful adjunct to the treatment of addiction. The added benefits of massage therapy help with detoxification, withdrawal and abstinence.

During the treatment process an individual improves in the areas of physical, mental, emotional and spiritually by the healing power of therapeutic touch. Research has documented that physiological effects of massage on the body can decrease pain, diminished autoimmune response, enhance immune response, and increase alertness and performance.

The body uses the touch of the massage therapy to reduce cortisol, a stress hormone.  Research shows that a massage can decrease anxiety, depression, agitation, and cravings. For this reason we have found that massage therapy helps with the individual’s process of recovery while in treatment.
