FIGHT DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND STRESS WITH MASSAGE THERAPY

Updated: Jan 23, 2019

Posted by North Jersey Massage Maywood, NJ


Massage helps calm the mind, improve mood and ease physical aches and pains.


Studies by WebMD proved that massage helps with depression by reducing Cortisol levels.


Cortisol hormone is the bodies response to stress. A relaxing massage reduces cortisol levels by 50% and increases levels of Serotonin and Dopamine two neurotransmitters that play important roles in your brain and gut. It helps to stabilize your mood, aides in digestion and sleep cycle.


Massage therapy is effective for both physical and emotional well-being. Physically it helps relieve muscle tension, aides with mobility and improves blood circulation. Emotionally you'll feel relaxed, clam and feel a sense of self worth.


Self help to boost your mood, reduce anxiety and stress:


- Exercise - regular exercise can have antidepressant effects

-Sunshine - take a daily walk outside to improve mood and sleep

-Positivity - face life and interactions with others with a positive outlook

-Meditation - mind/body connection
