Boost Immune System
Astonishing new research from the University of Roehampton in London has shown that a regular massage can not only lower anxiety but can also strengthen your immune system and aid in the battle against disease and infection by raising your white blood cell count. Our immune systems depend on white blood cells to function properly, so when the number is low, our bodies may have a difficult time healing and repairing organs and tissue. Our bodies can fight infections and diseases much more quickly when our white blood count is healthy or elevated.
