Why Self-Massage?
Before diving into the techniques, let’s understand the ‘why’. Self-massage isn’t just about relaxation. It improves blood circulation, aids in toxin removal, and can even help improve sleep quality. Plus, it’s a self-care ritual you can indulge in, anytime, anywhere.
The Temple Rub
Headaches, be gone! Using your index and middle fingers, gently rub your temples in a circular motion. This not only relieves tension but also stimulates the mind. Do this for about a minute or two, and feel the difference.
Neck Glide
Stiff neck from hours of screen time? Place your hands on the back of your neck, fingers interlaced. Now, glide your hands down the sides of your neck, applying gentle pressure. Repeat this motion 5-6 times. It’s like giving your neck a mini vacation!
