It isn’t that you aren’t tired,
it’s that you can no longer tell that you are.
In fact, quite a few people find themselves in exactly this state.
“I’m still fine.”
Do you ever keep pushing yourself while telling yourself that?
Today, on top of work and relationships,
smartphones and computers
keep us exposed to a constant stream of information.
The brain is said to use energy simply by processing information and making decisions,
and when a state of constant thinking goes on for a long time,
fatigue gradually builds up.
In addition, when tension continues,
the sympathetic nervous system, which is active during activity, tends to dominate,
and the body is said to lean toward being constantly switched “on.”
As this state continues,
• your sleep may be light
• you may have trouble staying focused
• your head may feel heavy
• your body may be unable to relax
yet even when these changes are happening,
they can become so routine
that you stop noticing the feeling of being tired at all.
People with a strong sense of responsibility,
and those who keep working hard day after day,
especially tend to push themselves without realizing it.
That is why
it matters not only to rest once you are tired,
but also to take care of your condition before you are completely worn out.
At La HEAD, we work not only on the head
but also on the neck, shoulders and arms,
helping release the tension you have been holding without realizing it.
After their treatment,
“I was more tired than I thought.”
“For the first time in a long while, even my head felt rested.”
“Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.”
These are some of the comments we receive from guests.
Precisely because life today is so busy,
consciously making time to rest
may be essential to maintaining your condition.
