Got Stress? Welcome to the modern world and our new economy. It is hard to imagine in our current times that we will not be under stress. The current economic crises and now our response to it must put unprecedented stress on our bodies. When you are under stress your muscles will tense up, breathing is increased, heart rate is picked up as we poise to deal with the situation at hand. Afterwards, a nice jaunt to the day spa would work. So you too, don’t have time, then consider coming home to a massage chair recliner.
But how do we respond? Whether we know it our not our bodies respond. In fact we call it the fight or flight reaction. Either way our body prepares itself for the worst on autopilot. Our hands and feet are ready for action. The major 
organs divert activities that enhance immediate survival and we are bodily primed to do something. Trouble is with the new economy, our stress is mental and not physical. We get all pumped up for action and then take a seat! The issue with this is we just had a major chemical release in our bodies and we need an effective way to release it if we are not fighting or flighting.
We are all hearing the new economic doom and gloom and it is scary. OK, so we know our stress levels are going up because we are faced with more troubling situations. This just means we need to recognize the balance is changing and we need to change with it. We need to find more effective ways to relieve and reduce its presence and affects. In other words, we need to find a new balance.
A massage has the attributes of the relaxation response. A massage helps your body to relax. Certain massages like a reflexology massage, for example, can actually reverse the stress reaction. Reflexology massage targets the trigger points in your feet or hands which help relax and calm the major organs. As the major organs relax, the rest of the body follows bringing total body relaxation. A massage also helps to bring greater mental awareness and clarity.
Two of the most important massage techniques are Swedish massage and Shiatsu massage. A Swedish massage is designed to relax and energize the body. It uses a variety of techniques to relax the muscles and bring about greater energy to the body. A Shiatsu massage uses the pressure points throughout the body to manipulate the energy flow. Pressure is used on the trigger points to unblock energy while kneading and chopping strokes help to invigorate the muscles.
