For the second consecutive year, Massage Heights served as a cornerstone partner for the Massage Makes Me Happy initiative under the Global Wellness Institute (GWI).
Massage Makes Me Happy is a global movement that aims to celebrate the healing powers of massage therapy and promote its benefits through research, education, advocacy and awareness.
The annual initiative was celebrated during March, leading up to Global Massage Makes Me Happy & Healthy Day, which was recognized on March 20. The theme for 2023 was "Bolstering Mental Health and Wellness with Massage Therapy." with the goal of raising awareness of the research-proven benefits of massage for those suffering from mental health disorders and challenges.
