The power of touch can help you finish this stressful year on a more harmonious note.
Massages feel good because they release “feel-good” endorphins into the body, similar to a runner’s high. They can also feel good because the brain releases oxytocin which is a natural chemical that reduces pain and can serve as an antidepressant. Massages can also feel good as a chemical response to human contact, similar to feeling good from affectionate contact from friends or family.
Human contact is essential in emotional well-being. Embraces, handshakes, and even cuddling are all great sources of the endorphin Oxytocin.
Interpersonal contact is proven to reduce stress, improve mood, and contribute to well-balanced health.
Massage is important for both physical and mental health!
