Couples Massage

A couple’s massage is a good way to strengthen the bond between you and your partner. Imagine an hour-long quiet massage with soothing music and a quiet room. You’re side-by-side and both of you are in a relaxed, calm state of mind. A massage invites you to experience the benefits and release a little serotonin (the happy chemical that improves mood) along the way.

1. Create Intimacy with Your Partner
A couple’s massage has a lot of benefits both physically and mentally. When you get a massage, your body releases oxytocin, better known as the ‘cuddle or happy chemical.’ You may feel a sense of increased happiness, calmness, and pleasure. It’s that all-over feel-good feeling many of us crave.

2. Lower stress and anxiety
Everyday, your body works hard to release tension. Even during a massage, your body attempts to lower stress by releasing serotonin and dopamine. These chemicals are so important to your wellbeing. A massage can improve your mood, reduce stress, and encourage a strong bond.
Massages also reduce cortisol levels. Cortisol is the molecule responsible for stress. The experts agree that when your body is relaxed, your mind is relaxed. A regular massage can significantly decrease feelings of stress and anxiety.

3. Encourage feelings of affection
You may feel more affection toward one another after a massage. You’re both experiencing a private moment together as you slow down and unwind. A quiet environment allows you to focus on one another as you listen to relaxing music and fully immerse yourself in the experience.
