Abstract
-Evidence shows that long-term exposure to stress produces effects that alter brain function, neural pathways, the immune system, and STEM cell development.
-Stress is directly correlated with the physiological response of increased blood pressure and heart rate.
-Research findings show a correlation between stress ball usage and decreased stress scores.
-Research indicates that handgrip training may be an inexpensive and effective method of reducing systolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure.
-Study findings show patients who squeezed a stress ball during angiography experienced noticeably lower pain and anxiety levels compared to those who received routine care.
