Feeling “off” in both body and mind?
It might be your autonomic nervous system.
Have you been feeling a bit down lately?
Struggling to shake off fatigue or having trouble sleeping well at night?
Even if your doctor says there’s nothing physically wrong, but you still don’t feel quite right — this could be a sign that your autonomic nervous system is out of balance.
Imbalances in the autonomic nervous system are common in today’s fast-paced society, often triggered by stress and irregular lifestyle habits.
In this post, we’ll explain what causes these imbalances, how to naturally restore balance, and introduce soothing treatments you can receive at MaryGraceSpa.
We hope you find tips here that help you feel more vibrant and centered in your daily life.
Thank you for visiting the MaryGraceSpa blog today.
We sincerely appreciate your time and hope this information connects with you and supports your well‑being.
🌿What is Autonomic Nervous System Imbalance?
Your autonomic nervous system is responsible for regulating your body’s internal functions 24 hours a day — such as heartbeat, breathing, digestion, and body temperature — all without conscious effort.
This system works through two branches:
-
Sympathetic nervous system (active mode)
-
Parasympathetic nervous system (rest mode)
When these are in balance, your body and mind remain healthy.
However, excessive stress and irregular daily routines can disrupt this delicate balance, leading to a variety of symptoms.
✴️Common Physical Symptoms:
-
Headaches, dizziness, palpitations
-
Shortness of breath, stiff shoulders, cold or numb hands and feet
-
Insomnia, digestive issues, fatigue
✴️Common Mental & Emotional Symptoms:
-
Anxiety, irritability, lack of focus
-
Low mood, decreased motivation
These symptoms are sometimes referred to as “autonomic imbalance”, and it’s common for doctors not to find clear abnormalities in medical tests.
That’s why it’s important not to ignore these signs, but to listen closely to your body and mind — and take care of yourself.
🛁Tips for Restoring Your Autonomic Balance
Balancing your autonomic nervous system starts with simple, sustainable habits that you can continue in your daily life. Try incorporating practices that help relax your body and activate the parasympathetic nervous system.
🧘♀️Make Time to Relax
-
Enjoy a warm bath (about 38–40°C / 100–104°F)
-
Use aromatherapy or herbal tea for calming scents
-
Take a few minutes each day for deep, slow breathing
-
Stretch or practice gentle yoga to release muscle tension
🕰 Keep a Regular Routine
-
Wake up at the same time each day and get natural light
-
Put away your smartphone earlier at night to improve sleep quality
-
Eat meals three times a day at consistent times
🥗 Nourish Your Body & Stay Active
-
Include magnesium‑rich foods (nuts, seaweed) and vitamin B foods (eggs, beans)
-
Add fermented foods and whole grains for gut health
-
Incorporate gentle activities like walking or stretching into your routine
These habits don’t just support your autonomic nervous system — they also help stabilize your hormonal balance and immune function.
🌺Recommended Treatments for Stress Relief
Hands‑on touch therapy is very effective at calming stress and relieving autonomic imbalance. At MaryGraceSpa, we offer treatments designed to help restore balance to both body and mind through deep relaxation.
🧘♀️Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage
Lomi Lomi is a traditional Hawaiian healing practice using flowing, wave‑like strokes with the hands and forearms to ease the entire body.
It helps promote lymphatic drainage and blood circulation and is perfect for calming shallow breathing and shoulder tension caused by stress.
💆♀️Facial Treatment
The facial muscles are one of the first areas affected by tension and stress.
Our facial treatments gently release tightness in your facial muscles and help support your nervous system through the face — improving complexion, reducing puffiness, and promoting overall wellness.
👣Reflexology
The soles of the feet contain reflex areas connected to organs and systems throughout the body.
Reflexology stimulates these areas to help regulate internal functions and build resilience against stress‑related symptoms such as coldness, swelling, and digestive issues.
These treatments not only restore physical balance, they also offer a deep sense of emotional comfort.
Please take time to care for yourself with one of our healing experiences.
