Everyone experiences stress. Stress is a common human response that we all have to deal with. Not all stress is bad; stress can be considered a good thing in some instances since it is a natural motivator and survival tool. However, too much stress or chronic stress can have detrimental health effects on our minds and our bodies. It’s important to learn how to manage our stress levels and find outlets that help us release excess stress and tension naturally. Read below about how some of our services specifically target stress.
Acupuncture

Acupuncture works to bring the body back into balance by targeting specific areas on the body with the insertion of acupuncture needles. Acupuncturists can use specific points to balance the body and help ease stress, anxiety, and other mental and physical health issues. Acupuncture calms the mind and elicits our body’s own innate healing system. Our center also utilizes additional modalities during acupuncture treatments to deepen the relaxation experience and relieve stress quickly. Learn more about our healing modalities here.
Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy releases what we call “happy hormones” including oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine, all of which make you feel good, content, and happy. Massage therapy also helps relieve pain with the healing power of strategic touch. Our tailored bodywork helps increase circulation, eliminate toxins, and alleviate built up physical and emotional tension. Learn more about our massage services here.
Laser Therapy

We offer two different kinds of laser therapy to provide our patients with a full range of benefits, including stress relief. Laser therapy decreases inflammation and increases circulation which helps relieve stress and promote cellular health. Our Cold Laser Therapy even has a specific setting for stress-relief.

Infrared Sauna

Infrared sauna sessions at Pellegrino Healing Center can be an effective way to reduce stress and promote relaxation. The gentle, penetrating heat of an infrared sauna helps lower cortisol—the body's main stress hormone—while also encouraging the release of endorphins and serotonin, which foster a sense of calm and well-being. This soothing warmth relaxes muscles, eases tension throughout the body, and creates an environment ideal for mindfulness and meditation, further amplifying the stress-relieving effects. Regular use of infrared sauna therapy can help you manage daily stress, improve your mood, and leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Learn more about this powerful service here.
Medical Cannabis Consultation

Research shows that cannabinoids such as THC and CBD can have a profound and positive effect on stress. With adult-use cannabis now legal in New York, many people are curious about its therapeutic benefits. If you are struggling with chronic stress or anxiety, a consultation with our integrative specialist, Amber, can help determine if you are a candidate for medical cannabis therapy. If you qualify, you will be prescribed a certificate, which you can then use to obtain your medical cannabis card from New York State. While cannabis—especially THC—may still carry some stigma in certain circles, with professional guidance it can be a safe and effective option for managing stress, anxiety, pain, and insomnia.

Halotherapy in our Salt Cave

Halotherapy (or salt therapy) has been used since ancient times, helping those who suffer from a variety of mental and physical health issues such as stress and anxiety. Salt produces negative ions which are said to help your body produce serotonin, the contentment happy hormone. Halotherapy can combat stress, anxiety, depression, while boosting your mood and energy levels. Learn more about our halotherapy sessions here.
