Top 5 Reasons for a Wedding Day Massage

Although it is the beginning of your Happily Ever After, your wedding day can be one of the most stressful, chaotic days of all. You want everything to be perfect and you want to embrace every moment. But let’s face it, all the running around, juggling the visiting relatives and in-laws, making phone calls & texts, coordinating schedules and making reservations all contribute to quite a stressful time for one of the most important days of your life.  So, yes, getting a wedding day massage is a fabulous idea!

This chaos ramps up your stress level, which increases your cortisol (stress hormone) levels, and brings all the stress to the surface.  At Live Love Relax, we provide onsite Wedding Wellness services with the goal to keep that stress at bay for the day.  We want to do our part in making sure your body and mind is in a place to operate at their best, experience the day to the fullest and make as many memories as possible, and getting a wedding day massage makes this happen!

And, yes, there is time for this to happen on the day of.  Just leave the logistics to your wedding planner or your maid of honor – Lord bless these lovely people!  We work directly with them to organize and schedule your massage sessions.  This way all you have to do is show up ready to be pampered and relaxed before your celebration day.

5 Reasons to get your Wedding Day Massage

#1 – Reduces Stress

– You got it! Our #1 reason to get a massage on your wedding day is to reduce the amount of stress running through your body and mind.  We know you need to operate at your best and this includes a clear mind and body. Getting massage has been proven to decrease heart rate and blood pressure while increasing your circulation, which means more oxygen all around. The more oxygen we have access to, the more breath we have access to utilize when talking to all your new relatives, to share laughter with during those crazy throwback songs on the dance floor and the more energy you have to get you all the way through your magical day & into the evening with your loved one.

Stress Less & Live More!

# 2 – Improves Mood

– On your wedding day, you want everyone to be in a good mood, especially you!  It’s your big day and the love is flowing and so should yours. Our second reason is backed by research that shows us as little as 30 minutes of massage will boost serotonin levels, which helps regulate your mood.  These chemicals that are released during your Day-of massage can bring you to a lighter state of being, allowing you to stay cool, calm and collected during your Day-of festivities and all the unknowns it may bring.

Breathe Deep & Smile!

#3 – Alleviates Stiffness & Soreness

– In general, massage can dissolve the morning stiffness and help work out any last minute soreness. You have a million things to do before this day stemming from months, weeks and days leading up to “your day.”  The consistent checklists create tension, most commonly, in the upper-shoulders, base of the neck and low back areas. Let us work out those night-before or week-of neck cricks, shoulder tension and headaches with our specialized table or chair techniques. We guarantee to improve your circulation and get your blood pumping so your body can keep up with these tasks.

Work it Out & Move Easy!

#4 – Touch Heals

– Touch is the oldest form of healing.  It is the most primal part of our being; when we are born all we want is to be held, to be touched, and to be reminded that someone else is there with us through this important time in our life. Touch is calming and reassuring; it can heal our worries.  And when we feel assured we can “stop and smell the roses along the way,” because we know things will be okay. When we receive a specific type of touch in a massage our nervous system can literally start to down-regulate, allowing us to take deeper breaths, which provides an abundance of oxygen; and as earlier stated more oxygen is good all around.  We believe in facilitating this for our clients from the beginning of the day so the rest is smooth sailing.

Receive & Heal!

#5 – Cause It Feels So Good!

– We have Gazillions of receptors in our body. Some receptors let us know when things are hot or cold, when something is rough or soft and when something hurts or feels good.  Experiencing an amazing massage can bring you to a blissful state of Zen on your big day. Whether you receive a chair or table massage from Wedding Wellness during your day/week-of, you can rest assured knowing that we have your back and you will definitely reach a state of balance.  This feels good state will allow your body to experience the place where Zen meets a calmed focus, while simultaneously engulfing you in the maximum experience of all the love around and within you.

Mmmm Mmmm Good!

Closing thoughts:

Of course in a perfect world, everyone in the wedding party would get massages, and more often than not that is what we at Live Love Relax make possible! Yay Massage!

But just remember if you can Stress Less you may live more.  Breathing deeply may cause laughter. Working it out can help you move easier.  If you can receive touch it is extremely healing. But most importantly, massages are so Mmmm Mmmm Good ?

We hope this gave you some insight and inspiration on why you should add massage to your upcoming wedding or event budget. We genuinely love what we do and want to share it with all of you!  Still have questions about how to work us into your day or week, contact us here!
