Massage Therapy helps Manage Workplace Stress

Workplace Stress

Does work have you all stressed out? Most of us are aware that massage helps to ease muscle tension that can be brought about by workplace stress and that massage can alleviate or reduce pain even sometimes migraine pain. There are, however a plethora of other stress related issues that may also be relieved through massage. As we learn more about the benefits of massage through research there is increasing support that massage may reduce anxiety, lower heart rates, increase the body’s production of endorphins, Serotonin and Dopamine, and lower cortisol levels. There is also the issue of postural stress that we inflict on our bodies from sitting in front of a computer all day. This stress more often than not is manifested in the neck and shoulder region. Massage can do wonders to alleviate such tension. It is also suggested that massage can lead to a longer and more relaxed sleep, which I’m sure we could all use. If you suffer from Workplace Stress and you just need a relax, please make an appointment at your earliest convenience.
