How does MOT help with Anxiety?
We all live in a constant state of stress, which makes us very anxious as our nervous system is in overdrive. Even if we feel we are not stressed, the environment we live in doesn't allow our bodies enough time to transition from a state of stress to rest, which is at night while we sleep. A large majority of us don't get to the deep sleep we need to activate the regenerative hormones to heal our bodies. That's just scary!
Manual Osteopathic Therapy treatments are so gentle because we mainly work with facia. Fascia is everything. It has been said that a 60-minute treatment is equivalent to a full night's rest. I'm sure there's a case study out there to prove this fact!
Fascia is highly innervated which means the gentle treatments translate to activating the PNS - Parasympathetic Nervous System. This is our rest and digest. Calming the nervous system, clearing the clutter, and allowing your body a chance to regenerate and restore.
As cliche as it sounds this is why massages are also focused on "rejuvenation, relaxation and restoration". Imagine getting a combo treatment of RMT and MOT. A treatment from the outside-in. It's a snore-fest!!
This is also why proactive treatments are so beneficial. It's better to come for treatments before the paina me injury as it would prevent said pain and injuries!
