How safe and effective would self-administration of a CSM be during an anxiety or panic attack in order to reduce heart rate?

Awesome presentation. I was in search of such a great video on sinus massage. Carotid massage is contraindicated in the patients with recently diagnosed ischemic stroke, carotid atheroma or having carotid bruit.
