🌟 Massage Guns 🌟

Ah, the beloved massage gun — a staple in many fitness enthusiasts' recovery routines. But let's dig into some of the research and uncover some facts.

Note- this is not a bashing of the massage gun and I regularly use one myself!

Knowing that they're not a miracle cure and don't actually do what a lot of the claimed benefits say, hasn't deter me from using it on myself and on clients who enjoy this treatment.

But... I will NEVER tell my clients that it will speed up their recovery, cure an injury, break down scar tissue or any other nonsense, because to put it blunt, it won't.

I've been asked many times about which one to buy, which setting and head to use, how long to do it for, how hard to press etc etc... it really doesn't matter!

Now, don't go binning your massage guns or stop using them, if you enjoy it... this is a great reason to actually keep using them and a great form of self care! (Way better than scraping/ Gua Sha or whatever other fancy names 'therapists' come up with these days).

So keep hold of your fancy vi*****rs and massage away!

🔍 The Truth About Foam Rollers 🔍

Let's set the record straight: I'm not here to bash the beloved foam roller. However, it's time to shine a light on the scientific research surrounding them!

Note- I use a foam roller myself every now and then, especially when I'm feeling particularly sore or aching after training.

Next up... Massage Guns (again, I use one myself so it's not a bashing, just shining a light on them 😁).

Scraping, Gua Sha, IASTM... call it what you will.

We recently had a client who received 'scraping' to 'fix' a 'muscle tear'. Spoiler alert: it didn't fix it!

🤓 Personal, reasoned opinion... It won't break down scar tissue, repair torn muscle, ligament, or tendon. It won't cause fascial release. It won't magically speed up your return to sport (I know lots of therapists will disagree).

❓️So, IMO what does it do?
✔️ It feels good (for some people)
✔️ It gives the therapist's hands a rest!
✔️ It works on the Pain Gate/Pain Modulation Theory and so may offer some temporary relief from pain and increased ROM.
✔️ It will give you bruising if done repeatedly in the same location, for a sustained period of time.
(📸 P.S. Now's the perfect time for your therapist to snap a photo of the bruises for social media to 'prove' the treatment worked 😁 . Please remember, being covered in bruises after treatment doesn't equal healing)!

If you feel like you benefit from this treatment modality then that is absolutely a perfectly valid reason to continue receiving it and why I may even add a short session into a treatment plan. If it helps with some short term relief, helps the patient 'buy in' and they like the feeling of it, then it can be a great addition... However, I would always be honest with what effect I believe it has on the body, and wouldn't send them away covered in bruising!

Foam rolling up next...

Hold onto your hats, folks, because here comes a revelation: discs don't actually slip! 🤯

🚨 Myth Busting Alert! 🚨

May is all about debunking common misconceptions.

I've had many inquiries lately, from "What do you think I've done?", "What exercises should I do?", "How long does it take to heal?", "Another physio said to do..." 🤔

Here's the deal: while therapists love helping out, giving accurate advice takes time, expertise, and sometimes even research. And guess what? Free advice isn't really free! 🚫 It's an investment of time, knowledge and experience.

Nothing beats personalized care and assessment. Booking a session with a therapist means tailored solutions just for you, based on thorough evaluation and experience. Don't settle for generic advice or magic cure claims... believe me, I've heard many.

There's no one-size-fits-all solution, and healing takes time and commitment. Trust in your therapist's expertise and work together to get you back to your best self! 💪

So, buckle in and enjoy this totally free myth-busting journey for the rest of May! 🌟 Let's kick it off with debunking myths about 'Slipped Discs' in the following post! 🤣

Reach out if you have any burning questions or would like to book an appointemnt. 🔥

📣 Booking Update 📣

👎🏼Over the past few months, we've experienced a significant number of missed appointments and late cancellations. As a small business, it not only impacts revenue but disappoints other clients who we've had to turn away due to unavailability🙍‍♂️

🧑‍🎓I've always strived to keep services affordable while maintaining high quality standards. As a graduate Sports Therapist and member of the STA and Better Clinic Project, I ensure I stay up to date with the latest research and guidance.

🤝🏼 From April, I will be keeping service costs fair and competitive but you will see a slight price increase.
New clients will also be required to pay a 50% deposit upon booking an appointment. This will be deducted from final payment. Dare I say it, but those that have missed appointments will be required to pay in full upon booking...I mean, it's kind of your own fault isn't it 😬.

📕 Unfortunately, I must now implement our cancellation policy to protect GH Elite Sports Therapy. Cancellations within 24hours will incur a 50% charge of the appointment fee. Less than 12hours notice will incur a full payment charge.

🙌🏼 Rest assured, there's still special offers and discounts for certain professions and memberships, as well as our block booking discounts.

Thank you for understanding... onwards and upwards.
