Ever wonder why your shoulders feel like concrete after a stressful week? 😣
When you experience stress, your muscles automatically contract as part of your body's "fight or flight" response. This is a survival mechanism designed to protect you from danger.
However, here's the problem:
In modern life, stress is often chronic rather than acute. Your body stays in a state of tension without a physical release, and those muscles never get the signal to relax. 😰
Over time, this can create knots (also known as myofascial trigger points), restrict blood flow, and even lead to headaches or back pain.
The good news? Massage therapy helps break this cycle by manually releasing tension, improving circulation, and signaling your nervous system that it's safe to relax.
Deep tissue massage specifically targets these problem areas, while hot stone therapy uses warmth to melt away stubborn tension. 💙
Your muscles are literally holding onto your stress. Permit them to let go. ✨
