How do you relieve shoulder tension from stress?

Answer 1

I get very bad tension in my shoulders and have a few tricks.

Of course a hot shower or bath is a start.

If I do not have access to a pair of thumbs, I make my own massage up with a pair of tennis balls in a thick sock. This can take up to an hour, not to be rushed.

I put the balls on either side of the spine starting from the tailbone all the way up to the neck. Each placement, I do at least 10 deep breaths and move my arms about.

As the balls get up to mid back for greater digging, I elevate my hips and put all my weight on the balls and move about.

Honestly this does help.

But not nearly so much as a good massage and several visits to the chiropractor!

Massage is the best.

Also heat applied is good. Those bags you can heat in the nuker are good. My heating pad is awesome sometimes. But, no matter how you look at it, a good deep massage that goes to the tensions spots, and also drains the lymph nodes in your neck muscles is the best way to go.

Answer 3

try this "self massage"...take a deep breath and as you are inhaling, lift your shoulders up slowly toward your ears. As you slowly breathe out, lower your shoulders down in slow gentle motion. Do this several times. Now lift the shoulders as you continue to inhale and circle your shoulders forward, then reverse the direction of the circle. Make sure you work S-l-o-w-l-y and b-r-e-a-t-h-e slowly. To get a deep massage effect, as you circle your shoulders behind you, gently squeeze your shoulder blades together and very slowly relase them.
To stretch your neck,lower your shoulders and tilt your left ear toward your shoulder. Then do the other side. Hope this helps.
