SpaCapsule Massage and Religious Modesty
With SpaCapsule massage users remain fully clothed, dry and are not touched, spa capsule assists with Muslim religeous observance.
Miami, FL (PRWEB) August 20, 2006
Historically, massage performed by members of the opposite sex has been looked down upon by many whose values of modesty are guided by strict religious adherence. To address the health needs of many religious followers, SpaCapsule® has expanded its reach into Egypt and many other countries in the Middle East with its unique Capsule design and the ability to administer a therapeutic massage, without human touch, to individuals who are fully dressed.
The benefits of massage are well known and documented. Thanks to the ongoing research, here are some newly discovered benefits of massage:
Medical school students at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-New Jersey Medical School who were massaged before an exam showed a significant decrease in anxiety and respiratory rates, as well as a significant increase in white blood cells and natural killer cell activity, suggesting a benefit to the immune system.
Preliminary results suggested cancer patients had less pain and anxiety after receiving therapeutic massage at the James Cancer Hospital and Research Institute in Columbus, Ohio.
Women who had experienced the recent death of a child were less depressed after receiving therapeutic massage, according to preliminary results of a study at the University of South Carolina.
These and other benefits have eluded those who are uncomfortable undressing around strangers or have religious or ethnic aversion to disrobing or being touched by members of the opposite sex. SpaCapsule®, which provides a massage using a patented multi-jet technology, provides a relaxing massage that is variable depending on the individual user for pressure and pulsation while user remains fully clothed.
“Our sales to this segment of the market have been strong” stated Jeff Greene, VP of Sales. “I was not aware of the strict religious codes until coming to SpaCapsule®. This has been more of a chance encounter, but nonetheless great for sales.” “Our distributors in Egypt, Jordan, UAE and Kuwait are all seeing tremendous traffic. Even some Spa Capsule owners in the United States have commented on increased business serving customers whose religious modesty is a priority.”
