Guess Who's Back?!?!?!

One of our original RMT's, Marc Lalonde is back at Davisville Active Therapy.

Marc is a skilled Registered Massage Therapist who focuses on using deep tissue massage to help his clients release patterns of tension in their bodies. Knowing that the wear and tear of everyday life can often create restriction and pain in the myofascial system, he uses massage as a therapeutic means of both deep relaxation and pain relief with such conditions as chronic soft tissue pain, tension headaches and repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome. Marc utilizes myofascial and trigger point techniques with deep tissue massage to address postural and repetitive strain issues, sports and motor vehicle injuries.
Marc likes to jog, practice yoga and kung fu. He loves wilderness hiking, canoeing and camping across Canada.

Women's Health Review #12.
It is so nice to see some work by the International Olympic Committee to recommend injury prevention for female, woman and/or girl athletes. This appears to be long, but I added in the consensus statements at the end. I think you will need to access the article to see them clearly. http://bjsm.bjm.com/

Too busy watching the Jays - Women's Research Review #8 is late! # 9 will be out later this week :-)

Women's participation in sport has increased over the last number of decades. However, performance-based research in women is lacking and data on whether or not exercise performance is affected by menstrual cycle phase is conflicting.

This is the first systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the effects of menstrual cycle phase on exercise performance on eumenorrheic women.

Read on and see what these authors say.
