By M Hyman Rapaport, P Schettler, C Bresee.

Research at the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, set out to determine the effects of just one single session of Swedish massage on neuroendocrine function and immune function.
The study concluded that “Preliminary data suggest that a single session of Swedish Massage Therapy produces measurable biologic effects. If replicated, these findings may have implications for managing inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.”
