We are thrilled to announce our partnership with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). As part of our commitment to supporting mental health and wellness, we have set a goal to raise $100,000 throughout 2024. This initiative is more than just a fundraiser—it's a promise to advocate for those who struggle with mental health issues and ensure they have access to the necessary resources and support.
The Importance of Mental Health
Mental health is a critical issue affecting millions across the United States. NAMI reports that more than one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness, amounting to nearly 58 million Americans. Additionally, 17% of youth aged 6-17 experience mental health disorders. These numbers underscore the urgent need for increased awareness, resources, and support for mental health.
Highlighting the Benefits of Massage Heights Services
At Massage Heights, we understand the profound connection between physical and mental well-being. Our therapeutic services offer numerous benefits for those facing mental health challenges, including stress reduction, improved sleep, and enhanced mood. Through this partnership, we hope to demonstrate how regular massage therapy can be an integral part of a holistic approach to mental wellness.
As part of our year-long fundraising efforts, we will host a systemwide fundraiser. From July 1st - 31st, $1 from every service completed at Massage Heights will be donated directly to NAMI. To learn more visit: https://www.massageheights.com/nami
