Creative Wellness Solutions would like to wish everyone the happiest and healthiest New Year! Speaking of health, this is the time of year when more people are getting colds and flus. A great way to boost your immune system naturally is to get regular chair massages.

The shorter time and lower cost of chair massage, compared to table, allows clients to book several sessions in a shorter interval. This increases the effectiveness of the massage. A frequent series of shorter massages is more effective than the occasional one long massage. This can make the chair massage a better therapeutic massage form than traditional table massage. There is also no need to remove clothing, climb onto a table or use oils. Just like exercise is better for you and easier on you when you do, say, 30 minutes twice a week than four hours once a month. The benefits will be much greater.

Clinical studies indicate that getting regular massages can naturally increase the immune system’s cytotoxicity. But if you already have cold or flu symptoms it is best to wait until four or five days after the symptoms have appeared, at that time massage may actually help to speed recovery time.
