Tension Treatment in Eastbourne

Stress doesn’t just live in your head. It often shows up in your body through stiff shoulders, headaches, clenched teeth, or that heavy, drained feeling you can’t quite shake. When tension builds, it can affect everything from your mood to your sleep and posture. And over time, the body starts to compensate in ways that lead to further discomfort or fatigue.
The Many Forms of Stress
Tension isn’t one-size-fits-all. It may come from sitting too long at a desk, rushing from task to task, worrying about finances, or simply trying to meet everyone else’s needs. While some stress is unavoidable, it becomes a problem when your body can’t seem to switch off.
Types of stress we often see:
- Physical: Poor posture, overuse injuries, past trauma, or lack of movement
- Chemical: Processed foods, alcohol, medications, air quality, or dehydration
- Emotional: Worries about work, relationships, finances, health, or family
Symptoms may include muscle tightness in the neck, shoulders, or back, headaches or jaw clenching, fatigue, low energy, or poor sleep, shallow breathing or feeling short of breath, and digestive changes or acid reflux.
