Spa Treatments for Respiratory Illnesses

Most people might think that massage therapy is only about eliminating discomfort in the muscles and relaxing, but it is also an important way to strengthen the body’s respiratory system.

With the temperature dropping these early winter days, you may experience more respiratory illnesses including asthma, and the common cold. We all know that visiting a day spa is another way to improve your health and wellness, and with natural massage therapy you won’t be required to take any medications.

Granny Mouse Country House & Spa experts give us a guide on how you can improve your respiratory system with massage therapy.

You may feel achy or stiff all over your body when you have a respiratory illness as well as a stuffy nose, sore throat or an aching headache. Massage therapy benefits many parts of the body. “Our experienced massage therapist uses a tapping respiratory treatment on the clients back during the bodywork which releases the hardened mucus that may be in your lungs,” says Granny Mouse Country House & Spa General Manager, Sean Granger.

Massage therapy used to treat respiratory illnesses has many benefits for the body, including:

  • Boosting the body’s immune system
  • Releasing toxins from your body
  • Loosening congestion in lungs
  • Eliminating sinus headaches
  • Improves posture to expand the lungs
  • Improving the body’s blood circulation
  • Releasing muscle tension from stress

It is very easy to let stress weigh you down or let respiratory issues spoil your day. With massage therapy this does lead to improved breathing, which means you will enjoy a more relaxed state, increased energy levels and reduce symptoms of troublesome respiratory issues.

Best of all is that Granny Mouse currently has some amazing weekday massage specials, ranging from a Swedish to Aroma or a Hotstone massage, as well as a host of other pick n mix specials for you to choose from.

Don’t put up with it any longer! Book your massage with highly qualified therapists today to reap the benefits that await you.
