PSU: Group Offers Massage, Stress Management Tips for Students Facing Finals

December 12, 2005

It’s finals week at Pittsburg State and to help students who have been putting in lots of extra hours to prepare for this week’s exams and projects, Gorillas in Your Midst, a peer health education group, will sponsor free year-end ‘stress-buster’ neck and shoulder massages today in the Overman Student Center.  The messages, performed by licensed massage therapist Lorraine Achey, will take place from 1-3 p.m. today in the lower level of the student center.

From 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. today through Wednesday, Gorillas in Your Midst will also distribute free handouts on stress reduction techniques and ways for students to manage test anxiety.

For more information, please contact J.T. Knoll, coordinator of student prevention and wellness, at 620-235-4062, jknoll@pittstate.edu .
