The short answer is yes! It isn't a quick fix, but massage helps the body to drop into the parasympathetic nervous system (rest & digest), as well as release hormones such as oxytocin. There are also specific modalities such as Craniosacral Therapy as well as massage practitioners that specialize in working with trauma, ptsd and emotional release. Massage helps with aches and pain as well as general relaxation, which are both good for mental health.
Esogetic Colorpuncture is another option. I worked with depression and bipolar disorder, treat an Autistic Teen. There are options.
