Already recognized for combating chronic stress, therapeutic massage would improve glycation, a major factor in accelerated aging.
Prolonged exposure to stress factors leads to chronic stress which, via complex mechanisms including glycation, promotes accelerated aging and age-related diseases.
Statistics show that, in the Western world, 9 out of 10 people experience chronic stress at least once in their lives.
Japanese researchers have shown that therapeutic massage using a microcurrent-generating device was significantly associated with an improvement in glycation, a major factor in aging. The hypothesis is that the increase in cutaneous blood flow induced by the microcurrents generated by the device is the cause of the reduction in glycation (1).
Improved sleep, release of endorphins (pleasure hormones), massage is known for its effects against stress.
Combined with its beneficial effects on blood circulation, massage therapy is proving to be an effective tool in the fight against accelerated aging and the onset of age-related illnesses.

[Glycation is one of the major causes of aging. Resulting from the fixation of sugars on the proteins constituting the organism, glycation generates toxic compounds that cause cellular aging. Glycation is particularly involved in metabolic disorders, skin aging and cognitive decline.] [AGE Breaker, patented nutritional supplements, based on rosmarinic acid, recognized by aging specialists around the world for their properties to reverse the effects of glycation.]More on www.agebreaker.com
