Study Summary
This study will compare the effects (good or bad) of Swedish massage or light touch therapy on your brain activity, physical responses (like heart rate, blood pressure, breathing rate), and mood and stress. This is a randomized research study. "Randomized" means that participants will be assigned to a study group by chance, like flipping a coin. Participants will be randomized into one of two study groups, and will have an equal chance of being placed in one of the groups: - A single session of Swedish massage therapy - A single session of Light touch therapy At the study visit, the study staff ask about life stressors, medical health, medicine use, and illicit substance use over the past week. The study uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as functional MRI (fMRI) to look at the structure and activation of the brain. Participants will undergo two brain scanning sessions, one immediately before and one immediately after the Swedish massage or light touch therapy. The scans will last approximately 45 minutes. During the brain scanning sessions, information on heart rate, blood pressure, temperature and breathing will also be collected.
Primary Outcome
Resting state functional connectivity during fMRI will be evaluated immediately before and immediately after a single session of SMT or LT in healthy non-psychiatric control subjects.
