Do you feel stressed, tired, depleted? Do you hold tension in certain parts of your body because of your busy lifestyle — or extended time in one position, such as working at your computer or sitting in a car commuting? Muscle pain, back spasm, and a host of anxiety-related disorders seem inevitable in today's overproductive world. However, there's a simple way to rebuild and counteract the damage inflicted by this grueling lifestyle: self-massage.

With clear instructions and 30 photographs, this books describes various types of self-massage techniques for relieving stress and relaxing. By learning about intention and focus, timing, practice, and a “balanced” approach, you can maximize the benefits of quick massage and create a personal massage routine tailored to the demands of your world…in just a few minutes a day.

You'll learn to: strengthen your posture, diminish aches and pains, replenish your energy, and target specific conditions such as headaches or stiff neck. In a practical and inspiring way, Massage for Busy People takes the practice of massage and personalizes it for all environments — at home, at the office, in the car, or on a plane.

    Place your right hand over the top of your left shoulder near your neck. Support your right elbow with your left hand.
    Using your fingers, locate the muscle that runs along the top of the shoulder. Starting at the shoulder joint, begin firmly squeezing the muscle and move along the length of your shoulder until you reach the base of your neck.
    Switch to the other side and repeat the same procedure. Briefly rest both arms in your lap, then do both sides again.
    Finish by using your fist to pound the muscle along the length of your shoulder.
    Hints:

    Be aware of your body position. Don’t tighten or lift your shoulders, and keep your upper body in a neutral position.
    Try bracing your working arm and using the muscles in your forearm to apply the squeeze. Keep the bicep muscles in your upper arm soft. This technique will help keep your shoulders down and prevent tension from building in your arms.
    Don’t strain your working arm. It’s better to repeat the massage a few more times using a manageable pressure than to attempt to break through the knots in a single, overzealous effort.

    Place your index and middle fingers over the middle of each eyebrow. Move the eyebrow under each set of fingers in small circles for a couple of seconds, then shift position by a half-inch toward the outside of the head.
    Continue moving along the eyebrow and the occipital lobe (the eye socket) until you complete a full circle around the eyes, ending up at the eyebrows again.
    Complete the eye massage by gently pressing both thumbs up against occipital lobe underneath the eyebrows.

    Place your left elbow on a flat surface such as a table and rest your forehead in your left palm. This position relaxes your neck.
    Bring your right hand over the back of your head and rest your thumb in the well of your skull.
    Press your thumb around the semicircular edge of the well. Hold each thumb-press for up to ten seconds until the entire area has been covered.
    Finish by lightly massaging the area with your fingertips.
