Why self-care habits do not always change how you look
The Doctor Pervushkin Centre for Restorative Technologies notes that people may pay attention to exercise, diet and skincare, yet still look tired.
In the clinic’s view, chronic stress may be one factor worth considering.
How tension may show in appearance
The original publication states that ongoing tension may be accompanied by changes in circulation and reduced delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues.
Possible visible signs listed include a dull complexion, dryness and reduced skin tone, puffiness and dark circles under the eyes, a tense facial expression, hunched shoulders and a drawn-in head position.
The clinic also draws attention to muscle spasms in the neck and shoulder girdle. According to the authors of the publication, emotional and muscular tension may be associated with a feeling of bodily stiffness.
