Scratch Therapy Benefits

Most of our clients feel tingles when in session and report a feeling of euphoria from the de-stressing techniques of Scratch Therapy. It is also not uncommon for our clients to feel so at ease they drift off to sleep.

A Scratch Therapy session can stimulate certain parts of the brain such as the hypothalamus which releases dopamine and also helps to regulate our emotions. This can be beneficial in fighting negative thoughts and emotions of those who experience depression.

Scratch Therapy helps to circulate blood flow in the body which leads to the release of serotonin or more commonly known as the 'happy hormone'. This can make us feel lighter, calmer, and more positive. Ready to take on any Monday back to work!

The hypothalamus that is stimulated during a session controls the way we react to pain and our threshold for it, relieving some of the discomfort we struggle through day after day.

The serotonin released in your body during your session helps to ease gastrointestinal issues. Serotonin helps to control the function and regularity of your bowel and protect the health of your gut. 

Being in a good mood is optimal for the best quality of sleep. During your Scratch Therapy session your body will release all types of hormones including serotonin which sways us into a better (happier) mood and ready for restful sleep.
