Why 10 minutes of massage per week can extend your life significantly

Usually you can find a massage therapist for 1 dollar/minute. Until recently I always thoughts this was too much money, but even spending 10 dollars once per week has shown me a dramatic shift and improvement in aches and pains and overall well-being. Invest in yourself. What else were you going to spend those 10 dollars on? Or trade with a family member. It's worth it people! 

"Therapeutic massage has been around for thousands of years. Even the primitive man was aware that rubbing and kneading an area of pain can alleviate some discomfort. Tui Na which means “pushing and Grasping” is arguably one the most ancient and therapeutic styles of massage. A Tui Na practitioner uses various treatment strategies and applies a variety of techniques that range from light stimulating techniques to heavier (deep tissue) dredging techniques depending on the disorder. Therapeutic massage is a complete medical system and has the ability to treat disorders internally and externally.

"Do self-massage.
Stress damages every organ in your body. For quick relief, press your thumbs against the sides of your nose just below your browbone; then walk your index and middle fingers across your brows and finish by lightly rubbing your temples. Massage prompts a drop in cortisol and adrenaline and a surge in feel-good endorphins."
