The Ultimate Stress Stopper in China

While a lot of working women stay in spas and massage parlors to chill after work, some Chinese women go directly home to relieve stress. According to reports, most Chinese women agree that the incomparable stress reliever is not massage parlors or spas but a loving and steady marriage.

It is true that spa salons bestow women a place for breather and rest, but these places are not enough. Psychologists say that the incomparable breather for working women is someone whom they can talk to after work. This person can be a cohort, an officemate, or family, but a husband is always the ideal person whom working women can approach regarding work hustles and pressure.

This argumentation is justified by Psychologist Roxane Gervais who studied the levels of stress of 400 nurses and perceived that women who have good relationships least suffer from the difficult strains of their jobs. In other words, single women often experience stress more than married women do; the said study refutes the regular notion that single women are carefree with regard to work. Perhaps, the study tells us only one thing: whenever you chance upon a Chinese woman in a massage parlor or spa, it means either she is single and dispirited with work or she is married and fed up with her husband.
