25.01.2022 Touch is so important for your soul

25.01.2022 Personally, I think the worst part of stress is the physical pain. Your shoulders tense, your neck tenses, your breathing becomes shallow and before you know it your teeth and jaw hurt for what appears to be no apparent reason. By the time we feel stress/anxiety/depression physically, we have been emotionally suffering for longer than we realise. Lay down on my table. Close your eyes and drift off into a world where you dont have to worry about the kids, your other half, wo...rk or even yourself because you have me to do that for you. Its so important to stop and realise that when it feels like everyone elses needs have to be met- so do yours 0474 143 338

21.01.2022 Please, if youre unwell even in the slightest, dont get a massage. Massage can be very contraindicative when ill. All health practitioners have families too- some who are immunosuppressed- and we really cant afford to bring germs home. Regardless of what youre sick with- stay at home, rest and wash your hands (wash your hands regardless!!)

14.01.2022 PLANTAR FASCIITIS SELF-TREATMENT Regular, gentle stretching of your Achilles tendon and plantar fascia may help to ease your symptoms. This is because most people with plantar fasciitis have a slight tightness of their Achilles tendon. If this is the case, it tends to pull at the back of your heel and has a knock-on effect of keeping your plantar fascia tight. Also, when you are asleep overnight, your plantar fascia tends to tighten up (which is why it is usually most painful... first thing in the morning). The aim of these exercises is to loosen up the tendons and fascia gently above and below your heel. 1. Soleus Stretch With both knees apart and your toes facing forward, lean into the wall until you feel the stretch in your lower calf. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat 3 times. 2. Step Stretch Stand with your toes on a step and your heels off the edge. Slowly lower your heels down, hold for 15 seconds, and then lift your heels to their starting position. You can either do both feet at the same time, or one foot at a time. Repeat five times. 3. Roll Stretch Using a mini roll, roll it back and forth from your toes to your heels. Alternatively you can use a tennis ball or a glass bottle. 4. Plantar Fascia Massage Using two fingers, apply small circular friction to any tight knots or lumps in the plantar fascia. The pressure should be deep, but not so much that you tighten up with pain. 5. Elastic Strap Stretch Sit on the floor with your legs straight in from of you. Take a stretch strap and place it around your toes. Gently pull the strap towards you. Hold for 15-30 seconds, then release. Repeat 3 times. 6. Toe Stretch Place just toes up on the wall with the ball of the foot and heel on the ground. Lean into the wall slowly until stretch is felt. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat 3 times. Can plantar fasciitis be prevented? There are certain things that you can do to try to prevent plantar fasciitis, especially if you have had it before. These include: Regularly changing training shoes used for running or walking Wearing shoes with good cushioning in the heels and good arch support Losing weight if you are overweight Regularly stretching the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon, especially before exercise Avoiding exercising on hard surfaces

09.01.2022 NECK, SHOULDER & BACK PAIN AS A RESULT OF CARRYING YOUR HANDBAG ON ONE SHOULDER WHY SHOULDNT YOU CARRY YOUR HANDBAG THIS WAY? Many women carry their handbags on one shoulder, and they tend to favour the dominant, stronger, or non-injured one. Even if the bag is empty and very light, the natural slope of the shoulder means they are going to have to elevate the scapula/shoulder girdle with contraction of the upper shoulders and neck to prevent the bag from sliding off. Thi...s isometric contraction overuses and abuses the muscles of the neck. If the bag is heavy, its even worse because a more powerful muscular contraction is needed, and the strap of the bag digs into the musculature of the shoulder, causing direct physical irritation and cutting off local blood circulation. WHERE DOES THE PAIN COME FROM? Due to your bodys efforts to redistribute the extra weight, your muscles tense more and as such become stiff. The trapezius muscle and the muscles that go from your shoulder to the base of your neck, which sits on top of your shoulders, may spasm and therefore tighten, resulting in a lot of stiffness in the upper back, shoulder area and neck. This may lead to pain when turning your head and the development of arthritis in the lower neck. Some may even develop tension headaches from constantly carrying heavy handbags. As the muscles in your shoulder and neck area spasm, it can result in pain from the back of your skull that radiates around to the front. ADVICE Its better to either wear the bag across the body or to use a backpack.

02.01.2022 Working from home is great however over the last few weeks the most common issue in which I am being presented with is tight traps, tension headaches and sore neck. . WHY ?? I bet you the ergonomics at your home desk is not right ? Your head is at a constent flexion , therefore putting strain on your traps which go right up into the base of your head.. think about it if your looking down all the time at your computer or phone these muscles are at a constent strain... no ...wonder people are getting sore neck, and headaches . . YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE . Your computer is at eye sight level. you need to make sure you take a break , walk away and stretch your neck. sit in a supportive chair. YOUR COUCH , BED and BEAN BAG are NOT supportive. . Take time out for yourself and dont let your symptoms get away from you. See more
