🤔 What do you need to focus on after you've had a Sports Massage to get the best out of it?
There's lots of 'advice' out there but I've simplified it down to three things to remember.

🛋️ REST 😌 - no strenuous exercise for 24-48hrs. This is because we are causing micro-tears and minor trauma during a massage, and you need to give your body time to recover.

🌡️KEEP WARM🧣 - warmth allows the muscles to remain in a relaxed state. We want to promote blood flow for optimal healing so keeping warm is really important. You can also apply heat therapy to any really sore areas - a heat pack or lavender bag, or even a bath for short periods of time.

💧HYDRATE💧- drink plenty of water after your massage. This promotes healthy blood and lymphatic flow throughout the body. Even a small amount of dehydration can have a negative effect on these systems, which could lead to longer healing times. This is why it's really important to avoid alcohol for 24-48hrs, to help your body stay as hydrated as possible.

As always, if you have any concerns following your massage, it is always best to

📱TALK 📞to your therapist to help you get the best answers.

Happy massaging!

Taping for a painful Achilles tendon - something a lot of you sporty folk will be familiar with! I see plenty of Achilles tendinopathy/tendonitis in clinic - and generally find that taping really helps in giving a little support and pain relief to this type of injury.

We will discuss taping during your appointment and apply at the end if we both feel it's right for your presentation.

I'm trying to keep a few colours of tape in clinic too 😉

Soft tissue injuries include sprains, strains, muscle spasms, cramps etc... Would you know what to do in the first few days after an injury?
You can use PEACE & LOVE to remember 😌

*Acute phase* (0-7 days)

🤕PROTECTION 🛌- Avoid activities and movements that increase pain.

🙋🏻‍♀️ELEVATION 🙋🏻‍♀️- Elevate the injured limb (if a limb at all ..) higher than the heart as often as possible.

💊 AVOID ANTI-INFLAMMATORIES 🧊- Avoid taking anti-inflammatory medications as they have been shown to inhibit healing within the first 48hrs of injury. Avoid applying ice (though with this one old habits die hard... Explanation to come at a later stage!)

🩹COMPRESSION 🩹- Use elastic bandage or taping (like K-tape) to reduce swelling.

🧠 EDUCATION 😌 - Your body knows best. Avoid unnecessary treatments or medical interventions and let nature play its role.

*Sub-acute phase* (4 days - 6 weeks)

🩼LOAD🚶- Optimal loading is a crucial part of recovering function - start a gradual return to activities guided by your pain levels.

🌞OPTIMISM🌞 - Condition your brain for optimal recovery by being confident and positive.

🫀VASCULARISATION🫁 - Choose pain-free cardio exercises to increase blood flow to repairing tissues (and get a massage 😉)

🏃EXERCISE 🏋️‍♀️- Restore mobility, strength and proprioception by adopting an active approach to recovery.

You may be familiar with other protocols, but PEACE & LOVE is the most recent, evidence-based protocol that should be used as a first line of treatment for acute soft tissue injury.

Loving using my and lately, need to dig out my Rock Blades too 💪 RockPods are used for cupping that requires motion, made from silicone it helps keep them attached to the body during movement, while RockTape is a kinesiology tape that supports injuries, swelling or painful/dysfunctional joints and soft tissue.

Make sure you book in if you have something that needs working on - I've had some great challenges this month which has kept me inspired 🧠

Hello! I am still here 🤣 just not brilliant at social media. Had a few neck & facial deep tissue massages booked recently and realised I've not really spoken about how these work on here!

Deep tissue face and neck massage can be very helpful for existing conditions like TMJ and headaches, some people have even found it helpful in cases of tinnitus and chronic earache. Aside from these conditions, a deep tissue facial massage can help to relieve both physical and emotional stress.
Note - this is not a beauty facial! We'll work around the whole face to find areas of tension and gently help to release tightness where we find it. We usually finish up with some deep tissue neck massage which can be a bit uncomfortable but often gives immediate relief.

Just look how many muscles are in the face and neck!! 🤯 They tend to get neglected and we only seem to look after them when they get really sore or dysfunctional.

I always use cold pressed Argan Oil (except in cases of allergies) as it has a number of benefits to the skin:
* Moisturising ability - it is rich in vitamin E, which is a fat-soluble antioxidant that can help improve water retention in the skin.
* Contains healing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These can help reduce symptoms for a number of inflammatory skin conditions like psoriasis and rosacea.
* Has anti-sebum effects, which can effectively regulate amounts of sebum on the skin. This can help to treat several different types of acne and promote a smoother, calmer complexion.
* Has both antibacterial and fungicidal properties. This gives it the capability to help treat and prevent both bacterial and fungal skin infections.
* Soothes atopic dermatitis. Research has found that applying argan oil topically to the affected area can help treat symptoms. Vitamin E and the natural inflammatory properties found in argan oil can both lead to this soothing effect.
* Has anti-aging effects
* Reduces skin's oiliness
* Safe for most people to use (excepting tree nut allergies)
