A number of research studies indicate that massage therapy can assist in patients’ recovery from many conditions. Studies have found use of massage to be effective in boosting the body’s immune system functioning, easing post-operative pain, easing alcohol withdrawal symptoms, and soothing chronic back pain better than other complementary therapies. Recent studies have also associated massage therapy with substantive relief of symptoms in cancer patients, such as pain, fatigue, stress, anxiety, nausea, and depression.
