In this episode I speak with Dr. Giulia Poerio, an ASMR specialist from the University of Essex. The discussion revolves around the concept of ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response), its triggers, physiological effects, and potential therapeutic applications, particularly in the context of manual therapy and massage.
Some Key points discussed include:
-Definition and explanation of ASMR, a tingling sensation triggered by certain stimuli like whispering, soft speaking, tapping, and gentle touch.
- Comparison of ASMR with frisson (emotional chills) and the differences in their physiological responses.
- The potential role of ASMR in pain relief and stress reduction, with some research suggesting temporary relief from chronic pain and reduced heart rate comparable to mindfulness practices.
- The tactile aspect of ASMR, which is often overlooked in research, and its relevance for manual therapists and massage practitioners.
- The concept of ASMR as a spectrum, with varying levels of sensitivity and potential connections to conditions like ADHD, autism, and sensory processing disorders.
- Strategies for incorporating ASMR techniques into massage sessions, such as creating a calming environment, explaining procedures, and using appropriate touch techniques. - The potential benefits of ASMR for individuals who may be touch-deprived or unable to receive physical touch, such as older adults or during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Overall, the discussion explores the potential therapeutic applications of ASMR, particularly in the context of manual therapy and massage, while acknowledging the need for further research and empirical evidence.
