Stressed And Reflexology Massage Portland

By Jennifer Sullivan


It is so easy to get burnout with the never ending tasks and lists of chores to complete for the days and weeks as they go by. Reflexology Massage Portland is the perfect way to get rid of those aching pains that beset one as the days go by. It is well known that ninety percent of all ailments are due to stress and having a treatment avoids and prevents this.

The positions that the body has to conform to with daily living can induce tensions with continued practice. For one, sitting at a computer all day can leave one bleary eyed and tense from being cramped over a keyboard all day. One tends to hunch up when working with one and this can lead to all sorts of problems with the neck, shoulders and back.

If this is not done and included into daily practice then the inevitable occurs leaving one feeling battered and bruised. This can become trouble some as it is not uncommon for back pain to result and even the onset of sciatica. The sciatic nerve runs down the legs with its source in the lower back and people who have had this problem will tell one that the pain is unbearable.

Other ailments that are predominant when using a computer is carpal tunnel syndrome. This occurs in the wrist area and is a direct result of using computers and especially the mouse and keypad. It is therefore essential that exercises are done when inflammation such as this occurs.

If living in the inner city and having to drive a lot, people such as these will tell that the amount of stress they experience driving is exponential. Having to negotiate traffic is very stressful and having a treatment is well called for in order to gain some relief. Hypertension can result and having close shaves on the road can be traumatic.

The body intrinsically knows when care is needed and this is often realised when one is feeling fatigued where no amounts of caffeine will help the situation. Sleep and rest helps to a certain extent but this does not clear up the inherent stresses in tired and sore muscle groups. Muscles need to be ironed out with rhythmic strokes aimed at inducing relaxation.

Apart from this the ideal way is to have a treatment once a week if this is affordable. People just do not realise the benefits of massage but there are those who swear by it and will see to it that they have one every week or at least twice a month. It can be costly but there are those professionals that discount treatments the more frequent one has them.

Massage has been around for centuries as well as the practice of Reflexology. Trained therapists have a sixth sense of the body they are working with and are very intune with the needs of the patient in taking time to work strained and aching muscles from the head down to the toes. The result is spectacular as one feels the stress leaving the body and positive energies returning.
