COMMON PROBLEMS VS TREATMENT
DELAYED ONSET MUSCLE SORENESS (DOMS)
This is soreness felt 48-72 hours after strenuous activity.
A massage prior DOMS symptoms will help flush out waste products such as lactic acid before the symptoms occur.
A massage whilst having DOMS symptoms will help reduce tightness, relieve pain and restore movement and flexibility.
MUSCULAR IMBALANCE(S)
Train one area more than another?
Carry weight on one side but not the other?
Favouring one side over the other?
Sitting in one position all day?
After a repetition of patterns, the spinal column becomes comfortable and favours the way we become used to. This causes a muscular imbalance which creates a build up of stress and tension on the affected areas.
Want to know what you can do? Book in a sports massage to target, stretch and release the imbalance!
LIMITED ROM
Limited ROM can occur through injury, lack of stretching and inactivity.
It is important to consider that our ROM decreases as we age
ROM can be improved through stretching and massage therapy by breaking down adhesions, increasing tissue elasticity and temperature, removing waste products and in turn maximising performance
