Massage Chair for Menstrual Pain Relief
Menstrual pain is common a common medical finding estimated to affect up to 80% of women.
Cause
No one definitive cause has been identified, but several factors are known to influence symptoms including diet, genetics, hormone fluctuation, and stress.
Because a period gives rise to both physical and psychological symptoms, stressful events in life and at work can make symptoms worse.
Emotional symptoms affect the way you think, feel and respond and can give rise to more stress and irritability.
Major physical symptoms of a period include pain, aches and cramps, lower back pain, leg pain, headache and more.

Show me the research!
While more research is needed to determine more exactly the causes of menstrual and pre menstrual pain and the efficacy of massage as treatment, much has already been established. A study published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics and Gynecology investigated a variety of therapies for symptoms.
For this study, researchers from the Touch Research Institute in the University of Miami School of Medicine recruited 24 women aged 19 – 45 years and suffering from opens in a new windowPMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder).
The women were randomly assigned to either massage therapy or relaxation techniques (breathing, stretching and yoga-like exercises etc.).
The results supported massage therapy as effective treatment:
“The massage group showed decreases in anxiety, depressed mood and pain immediately after the first and last massage sessions. The longer term (5 weeks) effects of massage therapy included a reduction in pain and water retention and overall menstrual distress.”
