Wines have long been used for their medicinal effects. History is riddled with examples of people believing that it can cure back pain, get rid of aids, help your joints and even make your hair grow thicker. In reality, wine is almost definitely responsible for more ailments and injuries than it cures. Amazingingly more than 2500 picked up injuries last year in the U.S just by using a bottle opener. Despite the poor history that wine and medicine have had over the decades, experts from the University of Minnesota claim that both red and white wine can aid muscles recovery when used in massage.

This claim was made after scientists at the university ran an 8-month study on various groups of athletes and other students, whereby they had recovery messages at regular intervals using either wine or a placebo substance. The results showed that incredibly, the participants whose massage included the use of wine, displayed a muscle recover rate of, on average, 25% quicker than those without wine. Tim Herring from the Universities Sports Sciences department stated that whenever muscles are used they become damaged to some degree¦.the research that we conducted showed the the healing of this damage was speed ed up when wine was included in participant’s recovery massages. It is thought that the alcohol in the wine numbs nerve endings and so allows muscles to reach a greater state of relaxation. This relaxation then allows a vaso-dilation of the blood vessels that surround muscle tissue and means more healing nutrients can get to the damaged tissue.This said, when the scientists tested other beverages with similar levels of alcohol content, the same positive effects on muscle healing were not recorded, which suggests there are additional elements in the wine that influence the process.

You probably wont find that there is a rush in wine rack sales from health spas around the country, but maybe they will invest in some slow wine pourers just to give it a go.
