Does Popping Bubble Wrap Relieve Stress Faster Than A Massage

We all know it, and you have to admit - popping bubble wrap is fun! Kids do it, adults do it, and so do grandparents! The only time it isn't fun is when you can't pop the bubble...or you are the one in the other room trying to focus on something and all you can hear is the joyous sound of other people popping bubble wrap. Did you know that popping bubble wrap is also a great way to relieve stress? Yesterday was the 12th Annual Bubble Wrap® Appreciation Day, and a new survey found that it's actually an effective way to reduce stress:  One minute popping Bubble Wrap relieves as much stress as a 33-minute massage! Wow - relieve stress quicker! While that sounds great, I'm not sure I would take a roll of bubbles over a massage. Would you?
