Today, we are more stressed-out than ever before. The stress of careers, deadlines, conflicts, and demands on our time and money, take a huge toll on our health and well-being. Just as a chain tends to break at its weakest link, we seem to exhibit stress and strain in the weakest areas of our bodies. Stress basically comes in three forms of overload. We encounter physical stress, emotional stress, and chemical stress. In fact, we are subject to all three stress factors at the same time. When we overload, it always manifests in symptoms at our weakest link. Stress can provoke ulcers, migraines, low back pain, insomnia, and other illnesses.

It is impossible to remove all of the stress from life, however, safe all-natural and effective stress reduction strategies can help offset the bad effects that stress produces. This strengthens the function of the nervous and immune systems at the same time, so you can make stress your friend, not your enemy. After decades of research, it is clear that the negative effects associated with stress are real. Although you may not always be able to avoid stressful situations, there are a number of things that you can do to reduce the effect that stress has on your body. The first is relaxation. Learning to relax doesn't have to be difficult. In this section are some simple techniques to help get you started on your way to tranquility.

  • Muscle Relaxation
    Category: Health & Wellness, Healthy Thinking, Relaxation Techniques

    The goal of progressive muscle relaxation is to reduce the tension in your muscles. First, find a quiet place where you'll be free from interruption. Loosen tight clothing and remove your glasses or contacts if you'd like. Tense each muscle group for at least five seconds and then relax for at least

    Relaxed breathing, also called diaphragmatic breathing, can help you relieve stress. Have you ever noticed how you breathe when you're stressed? Stress typically causes rapid, shallow breathing.

  • Soothing Sounds
    Category: Health & Wellness, Healthy Thinking, Relaxation Techniques

    To rest your mind and take a visual journey to a peaceful place, consider listening to soothing sounds.

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I started seeing Dr. Vasudeva in 2003 after being involved in a bad car accident. I had seen chiropractors before in life so thought I knew what to expect. He has the most calm and comforting chair side manner and I could tell he really cared about getting me feeling better and not his own bottom line. He was also great at looking at the whole picture of my health and educating me on everything from stretches to better posture at work and while working out and even Nutrition. He is a top notch doc I would send anyone to!"
