To say the last year has been stressful would be an understatement. Even as we approach something like normalcy, the pandemic has taken a toll on us all. Then, of course, there are still all the everyday stresses that come with working, raising kids, and simply living life. Maybe it's time to take a break from it all with a soothing massage in Guilford.
At Spavia® Guilford Commons, our massage therapy treatments can transport you to a higher plane of relaxation. As you transition from your daily grind to the serene atmosphere of our day spa, you'll immediately start to feel your tension drift away. Not only will you feel more rested and relaxed after a massage in Guildford, but you can counter some of the damage that excessive stress may cause.
How a Massage in Guilford Can Help Manage Your Stress
When you feel stressed and overwhelmed, your body is flooded with hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. These hormones are part of a fight-or-flight response that is meant to be short term — long enough for you to get out of a dangerous situation. If stress is a regular part of your life, these hormones may interfere with your immune system, your mood, and other natural processes.
While there may be sources of stress that you can cut out off your life, chances are most of it stems from things that you have little control over. Thankfully, research has shown that massage therapy can help reduce stress and, with it, the stress-related hormones wreaking havoc in your body. That deep calm you experience during a session may align with your heart beat slowing down from its accelerated state as the stress hormones in your system start to ebb away.
One of our massages in Guilford can provide some relief from your current stressors. However, they're most effective as an ongoing part of stress relief. You may even notice that your stress responses are less extreme once you have a regular outlet for them.
