The physiotherapist named ways to relieve tension and stress

Galina Engelhardt, Candidate of Medical Sciences, physiotherapist, Deputy Chief Physician of the Clinic of Neurology and Orthopedics, told in an interview with aif.ru On Tuesday, July 15, we will talk about two simple techniques to quickly relieve nervous tension and stress, which can be used almost anywhere.

According to the physiotherapist, the first way is to put your hands under hot water and hold it for two or three minutes, and the tension will begin to release. She specified that the water should be of such a temperature that it could be tolerated as much as possible. Hot water improves microcirculation, promotes vasodilation and relaxation of the extremities. And when the hands are relaxed, it will contribute to the general relaxation of the body, the specialist noted.

The second way is to look out the window at the blue sky while sitting in the office or at home when working remotely. When the eye has nothing to cling to (there are no clouds, houses in the field of view, etc.), the muscles of the eye relax. Engelhardt noted that there is an opinion that when the eye muscles are relaxed, the rest of the body muscles relax. In general, it helps to reduce tension and stress.
