Description
Since the 1960s, research has indicated strong correlations between stress levels and physical and emotional health. As a result an ever increasing number of people are seeking relaxation techniques. Meditation was one of the first relaxation techniques shown to have a measurable effect on stress reduction.
People use relaxation techniques for many reasons, including:
• Anger management
• Anxiety attacks
• Cardiac health
• Depression
• General well-being
• Headache
• High blood pressure
• Immune system support
• Insomnia
• Pain management
• Stress management
Research released in the 1980s indicated stronger ties between stress and health and showed benefits from a wider range of relaxation techniques than had been previously known. This research received national media attention, including a New York Times article in 1986. Public awareness of the health benefits of relaxation techniques grew, and so did the numbers of people who practiced them. Conventional medical philosophy adopted the concept and today's practitioners recommend using relaxation techniques to improve patient outcomes in many situations. Relaxation techniques are also a mainstay of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Six out of ten of the most commonly used CAM therapies are relaxation techniques which also include the use of essential oils in massage.
The pressures of everyday life increase year-on-year and as a result the popularity of health spas increases proportionally as we seek ways to alleviate the symptoms of stress.
