Massage therapy has an amazing effect on the body's nervous system. When massage therapy activates the body's parasympathetic nervous system, it counteracts in body's negative response to stress, relaxing muscle tension and allowing heart rate, blood pressure and circulation to return to normal. Massage therapy also helps to become more aware of the body and the person’s unconsciously held tension. As the person become more aware of the body, one will begin to recognize tension as it builds during the day so that the person can consciously release it before it can have a negative effect on the body.

It increases the resistance power in the body and promotes sleep. Sleep is important because it enhances Ojas that is considered to be the master coordinator between mind, body and the inner self. Ojas is the finest product of digestion, the main life-supporting force within the body. It acts like a shock absorber, helping to insulate the mind from day-to-day stress and enhancing the body's innate immune systems. A good night's sleep cannot only help to stay alert, bright and focused the next day but also it can also keep one healthy in the long run.
