What Your Tension Spots Are Trying To Tell You By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005

Stress affects each of us differently. For some, it’s high blood pressure, chronic back pain, or migraines. For others, it’s neck and shoulder pain, stiffness, tightness, or adrenal fatigue.

Stress has so many faces that you may not instantly recognize your tension spot as a result of it. But here’s the interesting part. Researchers estimate that 80% of disease is stress-related.

The reason? We work too much and play too little. When we can’t experience a deep sense of contentment in life, the lack of it is going to show up elsewhere, usually as health problems.

That’s why massage is so beneficial. It works on many different levels to heal both physical and emotional pain. And that wobbly-let-me-just-space-out-for-about-an-hour feeling you get after a massage?

Well, that’s the therapy working on your Central Nervous System to re-program your response to stress and pain. In other words, it’s breaking the old cycle of pain and stress.

Massage lets you experience deep contentment—and that’s the one key ingredient for good health and business success. Yet, we experience it so little.

Those tension spots you keep rubbing and wishing would go away are asking for relief. Just like you are.

Massage gives you back your happy face, releases your body from old patterns of stress and pain, and puts more life in your life.

The Weight Of The World Stops Here

The Weight Of The World Stops Here

The Weight Of The World Stops Here

It might seem like your boss controls everything you do, but it’s not really true. Actually, that would be your Central Nervous System, your body’s main computer.

Tight work deadlines, family responsibilities, not to mention the pressure you put on yourself, all add up to your body’s version of the caveman’s fight or flight response.

We might not have to worry about a saber tooth tiger, but your boss can sure feel like one. (Or maybe a very bad computer virus!)

The problem is this. The caveman fights the tiger and lives to see another day.
His stress is suddenly gone—poof! And he’s got dinner. Not a bad prize for a hard day’s work.

But today, it’s a different story. The stress never stops. You may think you learn to “live with it,” but your body spends every minute trying to balance out systems that are totally out of whack:

  • Sleep—turns into insomnia
  • Digestion—Heartburn, indigestion, constipation
  • Immunity—More susceptibility to illness

Stress causes your heart to work harder. Breathing becomes more rapid and shallow; digestion slows. In fact, nearly every body process is degraded because of it.

You might not be able to turn off the stress—or run from it—like our ancestors, but you can do something about it. Take control of your health by including massage as part of your self-care plan.

Massage is the one therapy that actually gives you the stress release you need. That “limp as dishrag” feeling you get after a massage is working wonders to repair the damage that every day stress causes.

Massage has been clinically proven to:

• Reduce cortisol, the stress hormone responsible for that tummy you can’t get rid of.

• Reduce blood pressure

• Increase circulation and oxygen, which improves mental clarity

The National Institute Of Health and the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry both published studies demonstrating the positive effects of massage on stress and anxiety.

Get the weight of the world off of your shoulders. Massage feels good and it’s so good for you. Do it for yourself and your family.

When Your Skin Is Suffocating

Life can be a bit of a whirlwind at times. Family, work, kids, can take up all 24 hours of your day.

And at the end of the day, when you’re all stressed and utterly exhausted, one of the things greatly affected is your skin.

Stress chokes everything about your life, especially your skin. If you see these signs:

  • Deep, dark circles
  • Dull, lifeless skin
  • Gray or sallow skin
  • Blackheads
  • Sudden redness to your skin

You need some time to yourself to relax and take care of your skin.

Even though you’ve heard it time and time again, getting eight hours of good rest is important. That’s when your skin rejuvenates.

Use the right skin care and do use it as prescribed. Don’t let anything keep you from this essential wellness habit.

Get a facial regularly. This will ensure that your skin is obtaining the treatment it needs.

Exfoliate regularly to get rid of the dead skin build up; add vitamin C and peptides to combat stress. It will also lift, brighten, and tone your skin.

When Your Get Up And Go Has Gone By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005

It’s the little things that suddenly make you grit your teeth…you ran out of milk. The kids are fussy. Your spouse is crabby. You’re sure that jerk co-worker is trying to weasel in on your project…

And all you really want to do is take a nap, preferably one about the size that Rip Van Winkle took!

If you’re routinely feeling tired even though you sleep well, but struggle to get out of bed in the morning, feel overwhelmed and exhausted, depend on coffee and soda to get you going, you may have adrenal fatigue.

Perched on top of your kidneys, adrenals have a very tough job in today’s world. As your body’s stress combat soldiers, they release the stress hormone cortisol, as ammunition to fight off the attack.

The consequence of continuously releasing cortisol into your bloodstream causes abdominal weight gain and adrenal fatigue, to name only two health conditions.

In today’s world, your adrenals simply don’t have enough ammunition. They were designed for short periods of stress like running out of a burning building or fighting off a predator.

But in a world where you feel constant pressure with daily demands, the adrenals ability to protect you is limited. It’s like having a handsaw to cut down a tree!

Dealing with adrenal fatigue requires you to reset your lifestyle button. As part of your recovery, include the proven therapy of massage. Massage restores balance to an ailing system, reducing the production of cortisol.

Massage releases chronically tight muscles and lets blood flow normally. It tames mental tensions, frustrations, and insecurities, the most damaging emotions we have, and so often associated with adrenal fatigue.

And that really good feeling you have after a massage? It’s working on a deeper level to re-program how you respond to stress, which in turn gives you a sense of wholeness and balance.

The only side effects of massage are a stronger immune system, more balanced hormones, more energy and clarity, and better health. Ready?
