There are many causes of insomnia, and research has long shown its relation with certain hormones in the body. Serotonin and Endorphins are particularly vital in achieving normal and restful sleep, and according to numerous doctors and massage clinics in Sarasota, FL, there is an indirect link between insomnia and massage.

The involvement of serotonin and endorphins has long been proven. These are what we call “feel good” hormones that give us feelings of happiness and well-being. The production of these hormones also block pain and stress signals to the brain, making us less likely to feel sad or stressed. Therapeutic massages offered by massage spas and clinics in various locations in Sarasota, FL recognize the relation between getting good sleep and massage.

This is why most people fall into deep sleep while or after getting a massage.
