June 17th, 2006Current estimates show that between 70 and 80 percent of all doctor visits are for stress-related disorders. Chronic stress directly affects the immune system, and if not effectively dealt with, can seriously compromise your health. Studies show that excessive stress can:
- Result in suppression of the immune system, which in turn creates increased susceptibility to illness - especially to immune related disorders and cancer
- Affect metabolic rates, increase heart rate and blood pressure thereby increasing susceptibility to colds and viral infections
If stress contributes to illness, then stress reduction would logically promote better health and healing. Fortunately, stress and its effects can be reduced through exercise and relaxation. For stress, the aim naturally is to relax and unwind the mind and body and a steam in your very own AromaSteam is one of the most effective methods available.
