Hahaha, it is so true though. Massaging is the best form of therapeutics before sleep because it moves the epidermal tissues, which stimulates vasodilation and in the process allows the integumentary process to maintain homeostasis. Massage also is a destresser agent because the massaging motion of the muscle allows and stimulates blood flow and stimulates the muscles innervated by the neuronal tributaries.
In the process you allow healthy flow of oxygenated blood throughout the heart to arteries, capillaries, which permeates to the skeletal system; through the ligaments and other cartilagenous branches. From this any carbon dioxide and poorly oxygenated blood go back to the venoules, which drains back to the minor and major veins (superior/inferior vena cava) and is then re-oxygenated in the heart. Where it completes the circulatory systemic route again.
As a result, there is a greater flow of oxygen-rich blood in the body; and stimulates sleep.
