Stress from our daily life, families, and jobs is felt by everyone. Sitting at a desk for eight hours at a time, moving things around the house, picking up children, and standing on the subway has a physical toll on our bodies. It also creates problems for our mental health.
Back pain, neck pain, and joint pain are some of the most common ailments we treat at Physio Art. Often, the source of this pain is from stress and anxiety causing tension in the body. Stress manifests physically!
Physical therapy and massage therapy can do wonders for stress relief and stress management. Incorporating a physical therapy treatment plan into your routine can help you manage your stress better, alleviate some weights on your mind, and relieve tension in your body.
Stress Management
Stress can manifest itself in many physical symptoms, including:
Whether stress is caused by something good, like the birth of a child or a marriage, or something negative, like the death of a loved one, it can cause physical symptoms.
It’s important to have methods for stress relief so that we can learn how to control our stress and prevent it from controlling us. Physical therapy can help relieve stress from the body and the mind.
A physical therapist will talk to you to better understand your unique situation and work with you to find the stress management techniques that will work for you. Each person is different and a physical therapist will create a unique treatment plan to help you control your stress!
Stress Relief and Massage Therapy
In addition to physical therapy, massage therapy can do wonders for stress relief. A massage can immediately lift your mood and relax tense muscles. There are also massage therapy methods to alleviate headaches and eye strain.
Massage therapy is a proven method in treating chronic pain and injury prevention. Stimulation of the tissues and muscles to reduce tension can help increase flexibility and reduce the risk of injury.
Even without the scientific benefits, getting a massage is one of the most relaxing things you can do! Getting one once per month comes with a variety of benefits for your physical and mental health.
