Dear valued clients,

Due to a sudden and unexpected medical emergency, our beloved massage therapist Masa will not be practicing for the time being.

She is currently in a critical but stable condition and is being supported by her many loved ones in both Adelaide and Bosnia, as well as the entire LifeForce community. We thank you for your patience while we work to reschedule all upcoming appointments with Masa and provide updates of her recovery.

If you would like us to pass on any well-wishes, please send them in an email to admin@lifeforcehealth.com.au and include “Masa” in the subject line.

Alternatively, if you would like to make a donation or receive updates directly from Masa’s family & friends, a GoFundMe has been created: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-bring-a-mother-to-her-daughter?attribution_id=sl:96230736-0961-4c14-b144-e0683fbc0a69&lang=en_AU&ts=1776071665&utm_campaign=man_sharesheet_dash&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link

For all clients who have an upcoming appointment booked with Masa with the next two months, please make contact as these appointments will need to be cancelled or re-scheduled to another massage practitioner.

She will be missed dearly, and we can’t wait to welcome her back once she is ready and has made a full recovery.

Kind Regards,

Subash Narayanan & the LifeForce Team

Yesterday my 4yo daughter woke with severe neck pain, and an inability to move her head at all. After checking her out and ruling out any concerning red flags, I came to the conclusion that her neck muscles had gone into spasm (the perks of having a physio for a Dad, huh?)
She was really distressed, and unable to move her head, and wouldn't let me treat her neck, so she stayed at home with a heat pack on all day to keep her comfortable.

This morning, she woke with the same pain, the same inability to move her neck. After convincing her to allow me to give it a gentle massage, and distracting her with some Peppa Pig so I could gently move her neck side to side, she regained almost all of her movement, and her pain diminished significantly. She's now got a smile on her face for the first time in in 24 hours , and is walking and moving and using her neck almost normally.
I didn't perform any miracles to make her pain go away, just helped her nervous system to realise that movement isn't a threat.

This is a great example of how movement and education (in her case, taking her mind off of the threat of pain using a silly British pig with both eyes on one side of her head) can go a long way to treating many painful conditions. Our brains play a huge role in pain generation, and sometimes all we need is some gentle movement and a reassuring word or two to start feeling better.

Now this is a joke I can really climb into!

Lower back pain can be scary. Scans can make it even scarier.

A massive study titled "Percentage of 'abnormal' findings on lumbar spine MRI & CT images in healthy pain free subjects" showed that things like disc bulges and degeneration, spondylolisthesis and osteoarthritis are common findings in pain free people.

This begs the question; "What is really causing your low back pain?" 🧐
