The negative effects of smoking cigarettes, specifically nicotine addiction, have been hot button topics on the news in the past few years. Large, sometimes cringe-worthy, campaigns encouraging people to stop smoking have been all over television, billboards and magazines. Although many people have the desire to quit, it is not always easy.
Nicotine provides smokers with a feeling of ease, as well as a way to calm nerves, which is very addicting in the high stress lifestyle many people live today. While quitting smoking, it can be helpful to have a healthy, alternative way to relax to make the process of quitting not feel as stressful.
Massage therapy is a healthy outlet for stress and a great way to relieve tension. Unlike cigarettes, there are good long-term benefits of massage therapy, such as pain, stress, and muscle tension relief.
