Swedish Massage In Port Orange Helps with Arthritis Pain

Did you know that massage in Port Orange can help with arthritis pain? It's true!

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 53 million people in the country have arthritis pain. They report that arthritis is inflammation affecting the tissues surrounding joints, with common symptoms that include pain, redness, heat, and swelling in joints. It's a leading cause of disability and can take a toll on one's quality of life. The good news is that there are things people can do to help ease the pain, including massage therapy.

Over the years, there have been numerous research studies that have demonstrated the benefits of opting for massage to help with arthritis-related pain, including these newer ones:

• In the March 2025 issue of the journal Rheumatology International, researchers share their findings from coa search of prior studies regarding rheumatoid arthritis pain. They found that Swedish massage can reduce pain, improve joint function, and modulate inflammatory markers and cortisol levels, thereby promoting neuroendocrine balance and lymphatic drainage. Furthermore, massage therapy may offer additional benefits in managing comorbid conditions and enhancing psychological well-being.

• The August 2024 issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences reports that a single 45-minute session of Swedish massage that includes the back and hamstrings helps to lower inflammation in the body. Inflammation is strongly correlated with arthritis pain.

• The January 2025 issue of the journal Aging Clinical and Experimental Research reports the findings of their study comparing massage therapy to hip strengthening exercises for knee osteoarthritis. They conclude that while both helped with the pain, Swedish massage also helped enhance daily function, promote independence, and reduce healthcare burdens.
