Tension Relief: Why It Matters and How to Get It

By Genevieve Cunningham

Most of us don’t even realize just how much tension we hold in our bodies on a daily basis. You might not realize tight shoulders, upper back soreness, or the headache creeping up on you … or at least not until it’s too late and you’re already in pain. Tension in the body is common, but that doesn’t mean that you have to just live with it. The goal is to release some of that tension so that you feel better all over. But, how do we do that? Take a look at these tips for alleviating pressure and tension in the body and feeling your best.

You Should Exercise

You’ve heard it before, and you’ll likely hear it again. Exercise is so, so good for you. It keeps your muscles strong and your joints and ligaments loose. It promotes a proper weight for your frame. As for tension, exercise forces your body to let go of mental stress that holds onto tension. And after a good sweat session, you’ll let go of that physical stress as well. If there is one simple way to improve your life and health, exercise is definitely it.

You Should Get Some Sleep

When we’re young, staying up all hours of the night and day was a bit like a badge of honor. We were proud that we could do this. Once you hit the adult years, it’s time to get some shut-eye. Sleep allows our bodies to relax and rejuvenate. Without it, you’ll be exhausted, rundown, irritable, and likely full of unnecessary tension. Turn off the lights, put the phone down, and go to sleep.

You Should Get Chiropractic Care

So much of the tension that we hold onto is in the back and neck. Chiropractors focus on this part of the body. They look for misalignments of the vertebrae that may be causing pain and discomfort, and they correct them. This not only diminishes pain, but it can also release some of that built up tension and pressure along the spine. Those who get regular care claim benefits such as greater mobility, fewer aches and pains, and a better general sense of well-being. It’s one of the best ways to keep your body loose, limber, and in good condition.
