De-stress with a Massage during the holidays!

Each year it seems as soon as the calendars read “October,” the holidays have begun. This moment, when the massive bags of candy hit the shelves in stores here in Boulder. To the last sigh you heave at cleaning up after the New Year’s celebration. It’s a whirlwind of pumpkin scents, wrapping paper, and too much food disrupts the normalcy of every-day life. I’m hearing “I need to de-stress with a massage during the holidays” from some of my clients!

While we all tend to feel some stress in our daily routines with work, spouses, kids, friends, hobbies, and more to balance, there’s something particularly draining about the holidays (as wonderful as they may be).

De-stress with a massage

Mind and body are inextricably linked and the interaction between them can produce physical changes. Our brain notices a stressor and triggers a physical reaction. The reaction can lead to further emotional reactions and mental and physical damage. Bodily responses that accompany stress often cause some problems such as headaches and muscle tension. Many other disorders, some say most, are aggravated by stress.

So in the torrential blend of holiday cheer and tears, consider treating yourself as a reward for treating others.

According to the American Massage Therapy Association, stress reduction is just one of the many benefits to massage therapy. Do you carry tension in the form of physical pain like headaches or back pain? You have trouble sleeping? Or you even find yourself struggling with symptoms of depression more around the holidays than the rest of the year. A massage may be the right treatment for you.

The right de-stress treatment

In just one session you can see results! Lowered heart rate and blood pressure, decreased levels of the stress hormone cortisol, relaxed muscles and increased circulation all lend to a happier, healthier body and mind. I highly recommend a Swedish massage or a even a Reflexology treatment, which is more than just a foot massage!

At Heavenly Embrace, located just a few minutes from Downtown Boulder, I am dedicated to bringing you the most effective massage treatments to best suit your specific needs. As a Massage therapist, I specialize in stress reduction and pain management specialist. I will work with you through the holidays, the stress, and your massage.

Stay Warm and enjoy the holidays 🙂

Highly recommend Liraz

Liraz is the best massage therapist I have worked with. She combines expert knowledge of anatomy with her sensitive intuition. She takes time to talk with you to learn your specific needs and follows up on future visits. She adapts her approach based on your preferences. She has alleviated pain in several areas for me, and suggested exercises and stretches I can do at home to maintain the improvements. Her office setting and personality are serene and relaxing. I always leave feeling significantly better physically and spiritually. I highly recommend Liraz and Heavenly Embrace Wellness.
