Stress And Anxiety

The causes of anxiety disorders aren’t fully understood. Life experiences such as traumatic events appear to trigger anxiety disorders in people who are already prone to anxiety. Inherited traits can also be a factor.

Anxiety can wreak havoc on an individual if not taken care of. For anxiety disorders, one should speak with their healthcare professional. For generalized anxiety, massage can help.

Massage therapy has been known to treat mental and emotional problems. It can help reduce tension and elicit feelings of calm and deep relaxation. Additionally, massage may be able to curb feelings of fear and anxiety and assist in managing other panic disorders and stress.

Here at Mind Body Balance, we work on the nervous system to help calm the mind and in turn, release tension in the muscles produced by overthinking and Fight/Flight response which puts the body at risk for other diseases. In conjunction with aromatherapy, Reiki and Swedish massage techniques we are able to calm the mind to the point of “no thought” and that be the catalyst to relax the person as a whole so that the body is then able to work at its ultimate potential to start its own healing process.
