Ever got off the massage bed feeling shaky, wobbly, shivers, trembling or like your bodyβs doing a little reboot?
Your parasympathetic nervous system has entered the chat hun π€
When your body finally shifts out of stress mode and into rest, healing & safety, it can create trembling, shivering, twitches or wobbly legs after a massage. Itβs totally normal. Totally human.
Sometimes itβs:
π« Your nervous system downshifting from βfight or flightβ into deep relaxation
π A somatic release, where stored stress, emotions or tension finally leave the body
πͺ’ The release of stubborn little βknotsβ and trigger points in the muscles
π§ Your body adjusting to all the fluid movement, warmth & relaxation
Basicallyβ¦ your bodyβs been holding on tighter than you actually realised π
Aftercare reminders:
π§ Drink plenty of water
π Rest if your body asks for it
π§₯ Stay warm & cosy
π Take your time getting up off the couch
The cocoon has had some BIG nervous system exhale moments these last few weeks and honestly? I love to see it π
