🌿 Understanding Ulnar Nerve Entrapment: My Guide to Your Relief 🌿

Ever felt that tingle, numbness, or weakness in your ring and little fingers? It might be ulnar nerve entrapment, a common condition where the ulnar nerve, a major nerve in your arm, gets squeezed. This usually happens at your elbow (the cubital tunnel) or sometimes at your wrist (Guyon’s canal), and it can really mess with your hand function and cause pain.

πŸ’’ How It Happens & What Causes It
It's often triggered by:
- Bending your elbow or leaning on it for too long (like at a desk).
- Repeated arm or wrist movements.
- A direct bump or injury to your elbow.
- Underlying issues like arthritis, swelling, or cysts.
- Even poor posture, especially in your neck and shoulders, can play a role.

πŸ“Œ Signs and Symptoms to Watch For:
- Numbness or tingling in your ring and little fingers.
- A weak grip or feeling clumsy with your hands.
- Pain along the inside of your forearm or elbow.
- In severe cases, you might notice muscle wasting in your hand.
- Symptoms often feel worse at night or when you bend your elbow.

πŸ‹οΈ Can Exercise Help?
Yes, it can! Gentle nerve gliding exercises and routines that improve your posture and mobility can help ease pressure on the nerve. Just remember to avoid movements that make it worse, and always chat with a professional before starting any new exercise plan.

πŸ’† Can Massage Help? Absolutely!
Massage can be a fantastic part of your recovery. Here’s how I can help:
- I can release tight muscles around the nerve that might be causing compression.
- My work can improve blood flow and help reduce inflammation in the area.
- I can support the nerve's ability to move freely and help your tissues relax.

My Top 3 Massage Choices for Ulnar Nerve Entrapment Relief:
Remedial Massage: This is my go-to. I'll focus on muscle imbalances, tissue restrictions, and any posture issues contributing to your nerve irritation. It’s excellent for long-term, corrective care.

Deep Tissue Massage: I use this to work on those deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. It helps release chronic tension and adhesions that might be affecting how your nerve moves.

Swedish Relaxation Massage: While it's a gentler style, it’s wonderful for promoting overall circulation, reducing stress, and can ease general muscle tightness in your neck, shoulders, and arms, supporting your comfort.

🏑 Easy Home Remedies & Lifestyle Tips:
- Use elbow padding or ergonomic supports if you lean on your elbows.
- Try to avoid prolonged elbow bending or leaning on your arms.
- Sleep with your arm as straight as possible, especially if you tend to bend it under your pillow.
- Apply cold packs in the early stages to help with inflammation.
- Do gentle stretches and nerve gliding exercises, but get guidance from a professional first.
- Ensure your work setup is ergonomic to support good posture.

πŸ‘¨β€βš•οΈ A Team Approach: Who Else Can Help?
Managing ulnar nerve entrapment often works best with a team. You might involve:
- Your GP or primary care doctor.
- A Neurologist for nerve testing.
- A Physiotherapist for exercises.
- An Occupational Therapist for ergonomic advice.
- And of course, a Massage Therapist like me!
- In severe cases, an Orthopaedic Surgeon might be involved.

🩺 How It's Diagnosed & Treated:
Diagnosis usually involves a physical exam, and sometimes nerve tests (like nerve conduction studies) or imaging (like ultrasound or MRI) to rule out other issues.

Treatment often starts with changing activities, using braces or splints, and therapies like massage and physical therapy. Sometimes, medications or injections are used, and in very severe or persistent cases, surgery might be considered.

⚠️ Important: Why Not to Ignore It!
Leaving ulnar nerve entrapment untreated can lead to:
- Permanent nerve damage.
- Muscle wasting in your hand.
- Loss of fine motor control.
- Chronic pain or disability.

πŸ“ Where to Get Support:
Start with your GP for a diagnosis and referrals. Then, you can also consult with local physiotherapists or massage therapists (like me!), allied health clinics in the Fraser Coast region, or community health services.

🌿 Purposeful Therapy – Designed With You in Mind 🌿
At Krissy’s Clinical Massage Practice & Co, my goal is more than simply providing effective massage therapy β€” it's about delivering care that’s deeply personalised, attentive, and genuinely supportive of your whole wellbeing.

I take the time to truly listen β€” not only to your physical symptoms but to how you're feeling emotionally and mentally. Tension in the body often reflects stress, fatigue, and the everyday pressures of life. When you're out of balance, it affects everything β€” your mood, energy, sleep, and even how you experience the world around you.

That’s why I tailor every session with intention. I don’t just focus on the area of discomfort β€” I focus on you.

Massage therapy is one of the most powerful self-care tools available. It helps regulate the nervous system, supports physical recovery, reduces pain, and improves clarity and calm. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, stress, or just need to unwind, each session is crafted to meet your unique needs β€” helping you move better, feel stronger, and live with greater ease.

One of the most rewarding parts of my work is seeing clients leave their session feeling lighter, brighter, and more centred β€” not just for the day, but for the week ahead. The progress so many of you are making is amazing, and it’s a beautiful reminder that self-care isn’t selfish β€” it’s essential.

You’re showing up for yourselves, and it shows. That momentum? That renewed energy? That’s the power of consistent self-care β€” and therapeutic massage is an exceptional way to support your journey.

You're not just another appointment. You are seen, heard, and supported β€” every step of the way.

🦴 Noticing a Snap in Your Hip or Inner Knee?
You Might Be Experiencing Internal Snapping Hip Syndrome

Have you ever felt a flick, snap, or catch in your inner hip, thigh, or even the inside of your knee when walking, standing up, or moving your leg to the side?
I see this often in my practice, and it’s known as Internal Snapping Hip Syndrome.

πŸ” What’s Actually Happening?
This usually occurs when a tight muscle or tendon β€” often the iliopsoas (a deep hip flexor) β€” glides or snaps over a bony structure near the hip joint.

The sensation might:
> Start in the inner groin or hip
> Travel down the inner thigh
> Reach toward the medial knee

It’s not always painful, but it can feel awkward or uncomfortable, and left unmanaged, it can become limiting.

🧠 Common Contributing Factors I See:
- Too much sitting or driving
- Weak or underused glutes and core
- Tightness in the hip flexors and inner thigh muscles
- Lack of regular stretching or variety of movement

βœ… What I Recommend for Self-Care:
πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ Gentle Daily Stretching
Hip flexor stretches
Butterfly or groin stretches
Lunges with a twist

πŸ’ͺ Strengthening 2–3 Times a Week
Glute bridges
Side-lying leg raises
Core work like bird dogs or dead bugs

πŸŒ€ Foam Rolling & Heat
Target the hip flexors and adductors
Use a heat pack after long days to soothe tension

⏱️ Move Often
Take breaks from sitting
Change posture frequently

If you’re not sure how to do these exercises, they’re easy to find online β€” just search the names and follow a reliable source or video.

πŸ’†β€β™€οΈ How My Massage Can Help
At Krissy’s Clinical Massage Practice & Co, I work with clients experiencing snapping hips, tight groins, and medial knee discomfort. Through massage, I target key problem areas like:
- Iliopsoas and re**us femoris (hip flexors)
- Gracilise, sartorius, and adductors (inner thigh muscles)
- Muscles supporting the inner knee and hip joint

My goal is always to:
> Ease muscular tension
> Improve blood and lymph flow
> Encourage better movement
> Reduce the snapping sensation and discomfort

Massage isn’t just for relaxation β€” it’s an essential therapy for conditions like this when you want real, lasting results.

πŸ™Œ Don’t Wait Until It Gets Worse
If left untreated, internal snapping hip syndrome can lead to things like inflammation, bursitis, or postural compensation that throws off your whole body. Massage, combined with home care, gives your body the support it needs to move more freely, safely, and without discomfort.

πŸ“ Come and see me at Krissy’s Clinical Massage Practice & Co
Let’s work together to calm the snap, lengthen tight areas, and support your strength where it’s needed most.

πŸ•°οΈI look forward to helping you feel better!

🌿 Visible Physical Markers (Divots) of Effective Lymphatic Drainage 🌿

Ever noticed small, soft indentations around your ankles or knees after a Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) massage? These are called β€œdivots” β€” and they’re a great sign your session is working!

✨ What Are They?
Divots are shallow, temporary dips in the skin that appear where fluid was once stagnant β€” commonly seen just above the ankle bones (especially near the medial malleolus), around the knees, calves, or even the tops of the feet.

βœ… What Do They Mean?
β€’ Reduction in swelling or puffiness
β€’ Movement of fluid out of congested tissue
β€’ Tissues are no longer under pressure from fluid build-up
β€’ Skin and fascia are more elastic and responsive

These divots form because your lymphatic system is doing its job β€” the fluid is shifting, and your body is engaging its natural drainage pathways.

πŸ” Where You Might See Them:
β€’ Above the ankles (especially in those with fluid retention)
β€’ Around knees, calves, or feet
β€’ Occasionally around wrists or elbows

⚠️ Important to Know:
These divots are:
β€’ Soft and superficial
β€’ Not associated with discomfort
β€’ Temporary β€” they smooth out as drainage continues

πŸŒ€ Summary:
A visible divot = a temporary β€œhollow” = a positive sign of fluid movement.
Pair this with how you feel β€” lighter, less pressure, more ease β€” and you’ve got clear evidence that your MLD session is delivering results.

πŸ’§ Supporting your body’s natural detox and circulation β€” one gentle massage at a time.

πŸ«€ Understanding High Cholesterol: Your Guide to a Healthier Heart πŸ«€Hypercholesterolaemia (high cholesterol) is often cal...
15/07/2025

πŸ«€ Understanding High Cholesterol: Your Guide to a Healthier Heart πŸ«€

Hypercholesterolaemia (high cholesterol) is often called a silent riskβ€”you may not even know you have it. It means there's too much cholesterolβ€”a waxy, fat-like substanceβ€”in your bloodstream. While your body needs some cholesterol to build cells and make hormones, too much, especially LDL (β€œbad”) cholesterol, can increase your risk of heart disease, stroke, and other serious complications.

πŸ” What Causes High Cholesterol?
A range of lifestyle, genetic, and medical factors can contribute:
🍽️ Poor diet – High in saturated fats, trans fats, and processed foods
πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Lack of exercise – Not moving regularly affects fat metabolism
🚬 Unhealthy habits – Smoking and excess alcohol raise risk
βš–οΈ Weight gain or obesity
🧬 Family history – Inherited conditions like familial hypercholesterolaemia
βš•οΈ Health conditions – Diabetes, kidney disease, or hypothyroidism

πŸ’ͺ Can Exercise Help?
Yes, absolutely! Regular movement is one of the most powerful tools for managing cholesterol:
βœ”οΈ Lowers LDL (β€œbad”) cholesterol
βœ”οΈ Raises HDL (β€œgood”) cholesterol
βœ”οΈ Supports weight loss
βœ”οΈ Improves heart and circulation health
Even 30 minutes of walking, 5 times a week can make a difference!

⚠️ Signs & Symptoms: The Silent Risk
High cholesterol usually has no symptoms, which is why routine blood tests are vital.

In rare, more advanced cases, signs might include:
🟑 Xanthomas – Yellow fatty deposits under the skin
❀️ Angina – Chest pain due to reduced blood flow
🚨 Stroke or heart attack symptoms – In critical cases

πŸ’†β€β™€οΈ Can Massage Help Manage High Cholesterol?
While massage won’t directly lower cholesterol, it plays a supportive role by enhancing your overall wellbeing:

πŸ’§ Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
Encourages lymph flow, helps detoxify tissues, and reduces low-grade inflammation.

πŸ’ͺ Remedial & Deep Tissue Massage
Improves circulation, reduces muscle tension, and supports physical recoveryβ€”especially if you’ve just started exercising.

🌸 Swedish Relaxation & Hot Stones Massage
Lowers stress hormones (like cortisol), encourages calm, and promotes healthy blood flow.

🌿 Scented Scrub Massage
Exfoliates skin and supports gentle lymphatic movement while offering calming sensory benefits.

πŸ‘‰ Massage therapy is best used as a complementary approach alongside medical care and healthy lifestyle choices.

🏑 Heart-Healthy Habits at Home
Simple changes can have a big impact:
πŸ₯¦ Eat more plants – Veggies, legumes, fruits, and whole grains
πŸ₯‘ Healthy fats – Choose avocado, olive oil, and nuts
🚫 Avoid – Trans fats, deep-fried foods, and processed meats
🌾 Boost fibre – Add oats, beans, chia, and flaxseeds
🚭 Quit smoking & limit alcohol
πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Stay active – Move your body every day
πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ Manage stress – Try yoga, breathwork, meditation, or massage

πŸ‘₯ Who Can Help? Your Healthcare Team
You don’t have to tackle it alone. These professionals are here to support your journey:

πŸ‘©β€βš•οΈ General Practitioner (GP) – Diagnosis, blood tests, medications
πŸ₯— Dietitian – Food plans tailored to your needs
πŸ‹οΈ Exercise Physiologist or Trainer – Safe activity programs
πŸ’Š Pharmacist – Medication guidance
πŸ«€ Cardiologist – For advanced heart care
πŸ’†β€β™€οΈ Massage Therapist – Circulation and stress relief support

πŸ’‰ Diagnosis & Medical Treatment
πŸ§ͺ A lipid panel blood test checks:
Total cholesterol
LDL (β€œbad”) cholesterol
HDL (β€œgood”) cholesterol
Triglycerides
πŸ“‹ Regular checks are recommended from age 45+, or earlier if you’re high-risk.

Treatment may include:
πŸ’Š Statins – Lower LDL cholesterol
πŸ’Š Other medications – Ezetimibe or PCSK9 inhibitors
πŸ’‰ Ongoing monitoring – Regular blood tests to track progress
All treatments work best in combination with lifestyle changes.

⚠️ Complications if Left Untreated
Atherosclerosis – Hardened or narrowed arteries
Heart attack
Stroke
Peripheral artery disease (PAD)
High blood pressure
Chronic kidney disease

🀝 Where to Find Support
Reach out earlyβ€”your health is worth it.
πŸ₯ Your local GP or community health clinic
πŸ₯— Accredited dietitians or nutritionists
πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ Allied health & exercise professionals
πŸ’†β€β™€οΈ Massage therapists (like me at Krissy’s Clinical Massage Practice & Co!)
πŸ’“ Heart Foundation Australia
πŸ“ž Lifeline or Beyond Blue – If stress or anxiety is impacting your health

❀️ Final Thoughts
High cholesterol is manageableβ€”especially when you take a proactive, whole-body approach. With the right care, support, lifestyle choices, and wellness therapies like massage, you can protect your heart and live well.

🌿 Take care of your heart. It works hard for youβ€”give it the support it deserves.
