Stress relief
Stress will always be a part of your life. It can happen with positive changes such as getting married, or with negative changes, such as the death of a loved one. Stress, especially negative kinds of stress, can contribute to or even cause illnesses, such as headaches, neck pain, low back pain, or stomach problems.
It is important to learn how to control our responses to the things that cause stress (stressors), rather than letting stress control us. Relaxation techniques can be useful in helping control stress. Two types of relaxation techniques include progressive muscle relaxation and controlled breathing.
Deep muscle relaxation has been shown to help reduce tension headaches, as well as jaw, neck, and low back pain. Controlled breathing reduces anxiety, and can help you to go back to the issue at hand with a more relaxed and open attitude.
Our Physios will teach you suitable technique dependent on your condition.
