We all know that stress is best either managed or kept to a minimum, yet we also all know that’s a tall order to ask in our modern stress-filled times.
Yet, what is stress and is this chemical reaction actually affecting our bodies?
Advertisement
First off, stress is instigated within the human body by hormones, which also happen to be the “same ones that trigger our body’s ‘flight or fight’ response.” So, what happens? When these stress hormones kick into gear “your heart races, your breath quickens, and your muscles ready for action.” Humans absolutely need stress in order to deal with serious and emergent situations. The problem arises when your “stress response keeps firing, day after day.” This chronic stress can actually “put your health at risk.”
Taking a look at the effect of chronic stress upon the body, you’ll find negative reactions from head to toe including intense tension headaches, increased risk of depression, heartburn, insomnia, a weakened immune system, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, higher risk of heart attack, tense and painful muscles, and digestive upset, to name just a few.
So, it’s incredibly important to find alternative routes to help your body release the tension that it builds up from the stressors of your everyday life. This can include everything from diet to exercise to tension relief home practices.
Integrating massage with tension relief products at home is a great way to not only take a minute for yourself but also release pent up tension on a daily basis. Here are a few wonderful tension-relieving creams, lotions, and oils to try out!

I don’t even have a need for two more bottles. I just went into panic mode thinking end-of-the-world scenarios and tried to envision myself without this oil. I couldn’t imagine it. So here I am, writing this review with my silky smooth face, waiting for the end of the world, where I’ll obviously be the most prepared human…in terms of facial oil preparedness.”
