๐ฃ๏ธLETS TALK ABOUT....๐๐ผ
RUNNERS love getting massages! ๐โโ๏ธ๐๐ป Not only does it feel great, but it can also speed recovery, reduce muscles soreness and facilitate injury healing.
โญActive release is best used when treating a specific injury especially one where the formation of scar tissue impacts the ability for the body to heal itself. Most notably, A.R.T. is an effective treatment method for hamstring injuries, plantar fasciitis, and shin splints.
โญSwedish massage is best used in the days before big competitions or as a recovery tool after hard workouts. The lighter, relaxing strokes help relieve stress and muscle tension without damaging the muscles, which is important if you have a big race approaching.
โญDeep tissue massage targets both the superficial and deep layers of muscles and fascia and are often quite intense due to the deliberate, focused work.
๐If youโre able to afford it, getting a monthly or weekly massage can help prevent injuries by catching tight areas before they become problematic.
๐๐ผโโ๏ธIt takes time to recover and not feel lethargic after a hard massage. If your legs feel a little dead the next day, thatโs ok ๐๐ป
