If you find that you are stressed out at times, then you may have pain in certain areas of your body. Trigger points are areas of muscle that are tight that can cause pain in a different location. So, by massaging these trigger points, we may reduce some stress and tension and feel a little bit better throughout our day!
Everyone handles stress differently, but I think it is one of the main causes of knots and tension in our muscles. There was a time when I never used to have tension in my muscles. However, when I started to stress about 'life happening' that changed. Sometimes I feel like there isn't a muscle in my body that doesn't have tension! BUT, we are all about the positive here so that is why I recommend massage therapy to help you because it helps me!
Some of the benefits of massages include relieving tension, reduce anxiety and depression, improves sleep patterns, improves mood by releasing serotonin and dopamine. These are just a few, but there are SO many more out there. It is surprising what the feeling of touch can do for us on an emotional and spiritual level!
Now, I understand not all of us have someone there that will be offering to give us a massage every day! One massage a week could help your state of happiness tremendously by helping relieve the stress from the week. If you don't have a significant other, then take some time and look up a local spa who offers massage treatments. You are worth the time and money spent to feel good and be happy!
