Remedial Massage- Why it's the "Thing", you're looking for!
I am sure you would agree that Health and Wellness is your most important asset and if you are reading this then you are most likely to be looking at taking it to the next level.
I am extremely passionate about Sports and Remedial Massage and take the validity and the value of massage pretty seriously too. So, I will outline from my 25-30 years of experience (without being too biased or subjective of course) –why it will be a must for you in your life.
The benefits from massage vary from person to person and each will feel and report different outcomes, but the bottom line is that massage is healthy for you.
It all starts with a good therapist carefully analyzing your situation and tailoring a massage to suit your exact needs. Hands on treatment is often the missing link, and I have lost count on the number of times I have heard clients say they have been needing that or” that is good pain.”
Here are some of the benefits and what my clients have said …
POSTURE and BALANCE– “I feel more balanced and upright”
Correcting and balancing your Spine and Pelvis will improve your posture and allow you to move more freely and without pain. In my experience I have found many people have a leg length difference due to a rotated hip or tightness through areas like their quads and ITBs reducing stress to lower leg injuries like Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendonitis and Heal Pain.
STRESS RELIEF– “What a great sleep I had last night”, or “I really needed that!”
Providing Stress relief (and just by relaxing for an hour while receiving the best massage ever) provides Headache and stress relief from Life’s daily up’s and down’s and helps you sleep better by improving the production of Serotonin which is essential in the production of Melatonin in your body.
ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE– “That feels so much loser, mobile, stronger or better than ever”
Pre and Post Event preparation massage improves your recovery time from injury and training and by increasing the flexibility and blood flow to muscles.
It will also aid the body to heal aches, pains and referred pain and as Sport and Intense activity can bring on many injuries it will help and prevent painful conditions such as Back and Neck pain, sciatic pain, tennis elbow and shin splints, Muscle Tears.
PREVENTION and ASSETT MANAGEMENT– “Yes I know I need to do it!”
Your health is an evolution not a revolution, so the key is an integration and balance of the following prevention activity and practices.
–Stretching (incorporating foam rolling and soft tissue release work) as it is important to add that if you stretch too much and do not have any movement in your muscles then all you are doing is stretching and weakening your tendons and joints.
–Yoga, Pilates and Meditation.
–Epsom Salt and Hot/ Cold Baths (particularly to ease pain from treatments)
–Weight training and rehab on areas such core stability and weak hamstrings and glutes.
-A Well Balanced Food Plan and or adequate Supplementation Program (Particularly enough Protein).
PAIN IS INEVITABLE (BUT SUFFERING IS OPTIONAL!) – “It’s a good pain!”
Remedial Massage can provide quick results but often we are erasing many years of tightness and imbalance so it is inevitable that your massage will really hurt.
You must be comfortable with the therapist and trust that their skills, experience, and intuition will provide a good balance of finesse and force.
