The Importance of Lupus Awareness

In the month of May, we celebrate Lupus Awareness Month! This is an important time for individuals, organizations, and communities to come together to raise awareness about lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease that affects millions of people worldwide.

Lupus is a complex condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues, resulting in inflammation and damage to various organs including the skin, joints, heart, kidneys, and brain. It primarily affects women of childbearing age, but men, children, and teenagers can also develop the disease.

How Can Therapeutic Massage Help?

At Therapeutic Massage by Sharon Tabor-Cheek, we understand the unique challenges individuals with lupus face on a daily basis. Our team of highly skilled and compassionate massage therapists is here to provide support and relief to those living with lupus.

Massage therapy is known to offer numerous benefits to individuals with lupus. While it may not cure the disease, it can play a significant role in managing symptoms and improving overall well-being.

1. Pain and Fatigue Relief

Lupus often causes chronic pain and fatigue, which can greatly impact a person's quality of life. Therapeutic massage helps reduce pain by releasing endorphins, which are natural painkillers produced by the body. It also promotes relaxation, which can alleviate fatigue and improve sleep patterns.

2. Stress Reduction

Living with lupus can be emotionally challenging, and stress can exacerbate symptoms. Massage therapy is an excellent tool for stress reduction. It helps calm the nervous system, lowers blood pressure, and reduces anxiety, allowing individuals to better cope with the daily stresses of managing their condition.

3. Improved Circulation

Lupus can affect blood vessels, leading to circulation problems. Massage therapy stimulates blood flow, improving circulation and delivering oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues. This can aid in reducing swelling, promoting healing, and supporting overall cardiovascular health.

4. Joint Mobility and Flexibility

Many individuals with lupus experience joint stiffness and reduced range of motion. Therapeutic massage techniques, such as gentle stretching and mobilization, can help increase joint flexibility and restore mobility, allowing individuals to move more freely and comfortably.

5. Enhanced Emotional Well-being

Living with a chronic illness like lupus can take an emotional toll. Massage therapy promotes the release of endorphins and serotonin, known as "feel-good" hormones, which can boost mood and reduce anxiety and depression. It provides a safe and nurturing environment for emotional healing and relaxation.
