The Effect of Massage on Mental Health: Stress, Anxiety, and Focus
Why Is Mental Health So Important?
Mental health determines how we manage stress, stay focused, and maintain emotional balance. Modern lifestyles increase mental fatigue through constant stimulation and workload.
Poor mental health often leads to sleep problems, anxiety, and reduced motivation.
Effects of Stress and Anxiety on the Mind
- Persistent tension and unease
- Lack of concentration
- Difficulty falling asleep
- Decision-making challenges
- Mental exhaustion
How Massage Therapy Relaxes the Mind
Massage therapy activates the parasympathetic nervous system, shifting the brain out of stress mode. Cortisol levels decrease while serotonin and endorphins increase.
