-
Decrease mental alertness

That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Increase mental alertness is a sympathetic response to the psychological effects of sports massage because it activates the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the body's "fight or flight" response. This response increases alertness, focus, and readiness for physical activity. It can help athletes perform at their best by enhancing their cognitive function and reaction time.
