Will massage benefit the urinary system?
Massage therapy benefits all body systems. Some forms of massage such as Reflexology, Thai massage, and Shiatsu have specific points or lines on the body that correspond with the urinary system or bladder as well as many other body systems. Since massage encourages the body to relax, the nervous system switches over the parasympathetic system, which helps all the systems to work together in harmony. (Note: If there is an infection of the urinary system, massage is contraindicated since the movement of blood and lymph from the massage could potentially spread the infection.)
