Possible Health Benefits of Massage Therapy: A Look at the Research

Massage therapy has been found to provide numerous potential health benefits. Research has primarily focused on the effects of massage therapy in medical settings for specific health concerns. However, massage therapy is also offered in non-clinical settings such as spas for relaxation and muscle health (Cleveland Clinic, 2021). If you are considering incorporating massage therapy into your medical or wellness care plan, it is recommended that you consult with your doctor to determine what may be appropriate for your specific needs.

​

  1. May Reduce Stress and Improve Mental Health Studies have found that massage therapy can help reduce stress and improve mental health. One randomized controlled trial found that massage therapy significantly reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression in patients with generalized anxiety disorder (Sherman et al., 2010). Another study found that massage therapy decreased cortisol levels and increased serotonin and dopamine levels, suggesting a possible improvement in overall emotional well-being (Harris et al., 2005).

  2. May Help Alleviate Pain Massage therapy has been found to provide pain relief in a variety of conditions. For example, a systematic review and meta-analysis found that massage therapy was effective in reducing pain intensity in patients with chronic low back pain (Qaseem et al., 2017). Another study found that massage therapy significantly reduced pain and improved function in patients with knee osteoarthritis (Perlman et al., 2008).

  3. May Aid Sleep in Those With Medical Conditions Massage therapy may also aid sleep in those with medical conditions. A study found that massage therapy improved sleep quality in patients with fibromyalgia (Castro-Sánchez et al., 2011). Another study found that massage therapy improved sleep in patients with multiple sclerosis (Backstrom et al., 2014).

  4. May Assist in Sports Recovery Massage therapy has been found to be effective in aiding in sports recovery. A study found that full body massage therapy improved muscle recovery in athletes after high-intensity exercise (Dupuy et al., 2018).

  5. Medical Massage May Help in Surgical Recovery Medical massage may also be effective in surgical recovery. A randomized controlled trial found that medical massage therapy improved range of motion and reduced pain in patients following total knee replacement surgery (Sefton et al., 2011).

In conclusion, massage therapy has the potential to provide numerous health benefits. However, it is important to consult with your doctor to determine if massage therapy is appropriate for your specific needs and to discuss any potential risks.
