According to numerous scientific research, humans are able to function more positively when they are able to allow themselves to have deeper connections with another human being and this could be from a close family member, great friends or colleagues. Think back to a time when you are feeling restless and down, but everything seems to miraculously feel a million times better after getting a warm hug from your mother. Immediately, you feel safe and protected. That’s the power of human touch!
Human touch triggers the brain’s orbitofrontal cortex, which is directly linked to feelings of reward, safety and compassion. It is also incredibly soothing! Basic warm touch calms cardiovascular stress and it activates the body’s vagus nerve, which can release oxytocin, endorphins, serotonin and dopamine – all the positive and happy chemicals, in your body.
The Covid19 pandemic has caused many people around the world to feel depressed, alone and ‘abandoned’. This is mainly due to lack of human connection during the lockdown. Massage therapy or touch therapy is one of the biggest solution you can enjoy today to make you feel immensely better. It is not just good for your mental health, but it’s also good for your entire physical and musculatory health.
