Benefits of massage

Back from holidays. It was a good break, not typically relaxing as I went for for city breaks instead of beach but definitely a change of set.

After 1 week away, I wasn't really relaxing... and you know what really did it for me?
Walking down the street, in an impulse I went for one of those places where they give you 10 minutes massages... By the end of the massage I barely could speak and at night all I could think of was 'bed please!'. I had a fantastic night sleep, like a rock and woke up really energised though a bit sore. The rest of the week I kept sleeping really well and feeling increasingly relaxed. It made me realize how much my body was stressed (I didn't really know until I started to feel it relax).

Definitely I will do it again. I've done massages before, the difference about this one was that it was really quite hard, aggressive almost, but really perfect for relaxing your muscles!
