A Fun (and Stress-Melting) Fact

Your body has a built-in alarm system called cortisol — great for emergencies, not so great when it’s running 24/7.

The good news? Massage therapy can help turn the alarm way down.

Research shows:

A review by Tiffany Field, PhD found massage can lower cortisol by about 31%, while boosting serotonin and dopamine (your feel-good trio).
Time magazine reported the same 31% drop after therapeutic massage.
The AMTA (Amreican Massage Therapy Association) notes that even a 10–15 minute chair massage can reduce salivary cortisol levels.

Translation?Your stress hormone gets dialed down, your mood gets a lift, and your body finally gets the memo to relax.

A little massage goes a long way — scientifically speaking.
