IT’S OFFICIAL: ZERO BALANCING IS VERY GOOD FOR YOU!
Updated results from the ZB Touch Foundation Research Partnership have ZB Touch taking its rightful place alongside mainstream modalities such as mindfulness and massage as a highly effective way of reducing stress, anxiety and tension.
The average measured stress reduction during a 30 minute Zero Balancing session was 61%, versus an average of 12% for clients during a rest period.
As well as this significant reduction in stress, the study also showed clients settling into an equilibrium with themselves at a ‘point of zero balance’ during their ZB session. Questionnaire results showed that after every ZB session participants rated themselves more positively, with a reduction of perceived tension and anxiety, and an overall feeling of being more relaxed.
