Oil Calms the Nervous System

There are over 1000 sensory neurons per square centimeter on your skin.  When you massage just your arm you are calming more than a million sensory neurons! Over a course of a day, 20 million sensory neurons are exposed to the environment and are aggravated by air, weather, stress, travel, clothes and everything in between.  Applying organic sesame oil to the skin can calm these neurons.  In one study, the hormone that increases with stress, ACTH, was decreased by 20% for a group that experienced massage compared to an increase of 30% of those who rested but did not receive a massage.  You also get the added bonus of nourishing your skin and decreasing dryness.
