Managing Stress with SCIO Stress Relief
Reduction and Relief can be one of the most beneficial health steps you can take. Peace, relaxation and biofeedback can help. Stress is defined as a non-specific response of the body to any demand made upon it which results in symptoms such as rise in the blood pressure, release of hormones, quickness of breath, tightening of muscles, perspiration, and increased cardiac activity.

Stress is not necessarily negative. Some stress keeps us motivated and alert, while too little stress can create problems. However, too much stress can trigger problems with mental and physical health, particularly over a prolonged period of time.
