Ever wonder what the cold weather does to your body? A lot of people feel like their muscles get achier in the colder months than in the summer season. Cold weather can affect muscle health in different ways. If we aren’t dressed properly for the winter conditions our bodies can tense up without conscience effort. Our shoulders go up to our ears in an effort to protect our neck and the cold wind hitting us can tense up our leg muscles and any other areas that are exposed to the elements. Let’s face it; even as Canadians, the cold temperatures affects all of us!

Soothing those tight shoulders and necks through massage treatment can help us cope with the effects of the winter weather and all the muscle aches and pains that go with it. Whether you are sore from constant shoveling or just tensing up from the miserable and relentless wind, massage Therapy can help relieve all those muscle aches. If you find you`re sore from the chilly weather, book a massage today!

Happy New Year! I hope everyone has had a good holiday with friends and family and that the first few days back to work or school have been a smooth transition. A New Year brings hope, plans, and for some, resolutions to better your life or yourself. Change is always a difficult thing to accomplish as it takes a minimum of twenty one days to break a habit and even longer for a new habit to become part of your everyday life. Whether your goal for this year is to lose weight, eat healthier, go to the gym on a regular basis, or stop smoking, my hope for you is that you accomplish what you set your mind on doing. A change to benefit your health is a good goal to have in mind. Be patient with yourself and don’t give up even if you stumble a few times throughout the year. No one has ever succeeded their way to success, but has failed their way until they have succeeded.

By starting the New Year off in the right direction through healthy goals, continue to treat your body well by getting regular massage therapy treatment. Massage can help with achy muscles from those new work outs in the gym or from the chill of the cold weather. Massage treatments can also help with seasonal depression in the winter by helping your body release endorphins which are your ‘feel good’ hormones. Treating your body and mind right will create a positive mindset that will help you accomplish your New Year’s resolutions. Book a massage today!
