Can a 10 minute massage reduce stress? The answer is yes!
A study published in Scientific Reports, showed 10 minutes of either resting or receiving massage resulted in psychological and physiological reduction in stress.
And the physiological effect was far more pronounced when participants received massage therapy.
All participants reported they felt more relaxed and less stressed, compared with before the treatments.
It was not important whether the massage was soft or moderate; tactile contact in general seemed to improve the relaxation of the body.
