Massage therapy may be the pinnacle of relaxation, but its advantages go far beyond stress reduction. Massage has been proved to help with anything from sleep apnea and sciatica to tinnitus and heart disease. It is time to add anxiousness to this list.

Such therapy can help with a variety of issues. Anxiety, like depression, is a terrible illness that is often misunderstood by those closest to us. We all encounter anxiety at some point in our lives, but for some who suffer from anxiety disorders, the nervous emotions never go away and may worsen with time. Work, school, relationships, and even our capacity to accomplish simple daily tasks get hampered as a result of our continual anxiety.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder


Anxiety, specifically Generalized Anxiety Disorder, affects roughly 18.1 percent of the adult population, with women being 60 percent more likely than males to be affected. Anxiety is ubiquitous, affecting more than just one’s emotions. Anxiety disorders have been shown in studies to influence the circulatory, pulmonary, and digestive systems, as well as disrupt sleep and create muscular and body pain.

Signs of Anxiety 

  • Being restless and on edge
  • Problems concentrating
  • Fatigue without any reason
  • Unexplained muscle tension as well as pain
  • Irritability and unexplained annoyance
  • Treatment for anxiety
  • Sleep disturbances 

Massage Therapy Helps Control Anxiety

Massage treatment has been shown to help with two of the most common signs of anxiety: sleep disruptions and insomnia, as well as muscle tension pain. Following are the way how massage therapy helps control your anxiety.

  1. You feel connected

When you have a massage at a therapy clinic, you feel more connected and safe with your massage therapist. It also aids in the production of endorphins and is especially good for individuals who are coping with isolating thoughts.

  1. Promotes better sleep

Massages assist patients to fall asleep more easily. It also helps you to sleep for a longer time which “lessens the neurotransmitter associated with pain” through decreasing cortisol and lowering heart rate.

  1. Improved immune system

Massages can help you stay healthy by “increasing the amount of activity of the body’s white blood cells that operate to combat infections.” This is especially important for people who struggle with anxiety because cortisol has a negative impact on the immune system. Moreover, you will feel comfort and relaxation that can help the body to be healthy. 

  1. Decreased heart rate and blood pressure

Massage therapy lowers blood pressure as well as heart rate as it relaxes both the body and the psyche. Keeping in mind that both are common anxiety symptoms, reducing them would help you to relax and stay relaxed.

  1. Releases endorphins and hormones

Your body releases beneficial neurohormones when receiving a therapy clinic massage. These good hormones, which include serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin, may help you feel more balanced and centered while reducing the anxiety symptoms. You can get weekly or monthly appointments based on your anxiety levels. 

Get Started Today

Worry does not have to be your constant companion. Get up, get yourself a massage at a relaxed place, and get started on the road to less anxiety.
