Your body keeps score β and stress is a physical problem, not just a mental one. π§¬
When you're under chronic stress, your muscles contract and stay contracted. Your shoulders rise toward your ears. Your jaw clenches. Your lower back braces. Over time, this becomes your body's default state β and you forget what release even feels like.
Here's where people hold it most: π΄ Neck and upper traps β the weight of the world, literally π΄ Lower back β sitting, anxiety, and the hips-mind connection π΄ Jaw and temples β stress manifests here more than anywhere π΄ Hips β fascia stores emotional tension in ways we're still learning to understand.
Massage isn't just comfort. It's intervention. It breaks the stress-tension cycle at the source.
