Anxiety follows no rules. You can flip from anger to sadness or enjoy a crowd and then instantly need to be alone. The one constant for everyone is that it can paralyze your body and mind. Muscles tense, Blood Pressure increases and the tension steadily grows within your body. Then comes body aches, migraines, or even a crick in the neck. Muscles have memory, so being able to get stress relief, relax your muscles and push out the toxins can cause an emotional release that is imperative for your health.
Coming in for anxiety massage can make all the difference. In addition to releasing tension, it increases your body's levels of oxytocin and serotonin, which results in lowered stress and lowers your blood pressure and is a great mood booster.
Anxiety Massage is much more than a relaxation massage. Hot and cold therapy is applied, acupressure is applied to certain points, and there are different strokes andaromatherapy. It can also serve as an assisted meditation session. It can be during a current anxiety attack, a day after, or just for general help.
From one of our clients, describing how our anxiety massage differed from a relaxation massage:
"The breathing intent is different. It's focus was more on collecting your energy. Less for collecting energy for pain and physical issues. It was a deep thought connection that took place on both of our parts. The intent was much more focused on physical reassurance of emotional distress. Much slower and more solid touch. The pressure was more from her just solidly touching and not too many different techniques. It wasn't a relaxation or swedish. It was firm, yet calming. She put herself in a position to accept/combat my anxiety without judgement, or resistance. It was definitely one of the most releasing experiences I've had. I felt all of the emotions, happy, sad, nervous, and finally calm and relieved. I left feeling lighter and light headed. It was pretty awesome!"
