25.01.2022 As many of us are working from home these days, we are all also experiencing lots of tension in the upper body from sitting down all day. Listen to this podcast if you'd like to know more about it. Episode 22: Tension podcast brought to you by Jurmaine Health. Contact us to find out how we can help manage your stress/ tension.

25.01.2022 When we hear the word trauma, we associate it primarily with a physical occurrence, be it singular or multiple; something like a car accident, personal injury, natural disaster or serious harm. A time that one can recognise and identify as a disturbing, overwhelming and stressful experience. Experiences of prolonged psychological, emotional, child or spousal abuse, domestic and/or social violence are not as highly recognised as traumas, as they most often arent of a single... event origin! Chronic stress, be it stemming from any of the causes listed above, or as is the case for most of us, be it from repeated daily stress due to work, family, social expectations, etc, must also be considered, as it will also result in tension patterns in the body. This form of trauma is considered less frequently, as most people expect to have stress in their lives, and dont realise the long-term effect that chronic stress can have on them. Contact us to find out how we can help manage your chronic stress.

24.01.2022 Hello all, due to the number of changes from government, associations and institutions, the information provided to us has been confusing at best.

Look Forward to this: We will be providing some online support soon, so watch this space

24.01.2022 Do you understand your system? Just because you have tight lats, it does not necessarily mean you should 'tenderise' your lats with a foam roller (with teeth). Are you rolling yourself into back pain? Are you a piece of meat? Sometimes we prefer a bread pin roll! If you do high volume activity - you will lose body awareness more easily. After 9 shopping mall massages sessions, why do you expect your clinician to fix you in 1 session? Contact us if you'd like some help in managing your low back pain.

17.01.2022 Ever wonder what happens to the brain if ones infected with the virus? Repost @jurmainehealthbrain @neuroscienceneurology

16.01.2022 When one experiences a situation that is ‘traumatic’ or registered in our mind as a stressful/overwhelming situation/threat, our ‘fight or flight’ mechanism is stimulated by our sympathetic nervous system. When this occurs, deep muscle contractions occur in our body in order to protect our body from harm. Unfortunately for us, we struggle to relax these deep muscle contractions once the stressful/traumatic situation is removed, thus leading to chronic muscular tension, and potentially predisposing us to physical pain, constrictions and/or injury. - Jurmaine Health Book in a session with us to find out for yourself!

16.01.2022 Many of you would know that we specialise in A.R.T. What is A.R.T.? Active Release Techniques is a hands-on soft tissue diagnostic and management system that corrects muscular and soft tissue problems caused by the formation of adhesive tissues that are laid down due to overuse or cumulative trauma. Cumulative trauma and over-use of soft-tissue causes repetitive strain injuries, often referred to as ‘RSI’. As described, this can also include use of your hands on daily basis. Book in a session with us now if you want to get better~

15.01.2022 Trauma release exercises (TRE) are designed to stimulate and encourage the release of the stored deep muscular tension from within our body, through tremoring. They are a set of exercises that one can do, including stretching exercises, loading/building up charge exercises, and the final tremoring exercise, in order to try and relax the nervous system, and restore the body to its normal relaxed state. These exercises are taught to be self-regulated, and safe to do on ones own, on a regular basis, as no matter how hard we try, we are always exposed to some form of stress.

14.01.2022 As we get older, our breathing patterns change and what ends up happening is what we call paroxysmal breathing. Where we end up breathing incorrectly, usually it ends up us breathing up through the chest, up very shallow shoulders, chest and high chest as opposed to using our diaphragms for breathing. Our podcast: 049 How does stress affect your breathing Contact us to find out how we can help you retrain your breathing patterns.

14.01.2022 New research uncovers the psychological benefits of treating the weekend like a vacation. A series of experiments found that simply following the prompt treat this weekend like a vacation led workers to a more enjoyable two days off and a happier return to work on Monday. The findings were published in Social Psychological and Personality Science. Vacation time has been linked to a wealth of benefits, including improved health, happiness, and life satisfaction and yet, as... Colin West and his fellow researchers express, the United States is severely lacking when it comes to paid vacation days. Although one of the wealthiest nations in the world, the United States is temporally impoverished, the researchers share, noting that Americans tend to work more hours per week and on more weekends than employees in other countries. While most Americans do get weekends off, research suggests that these regular two-day breaks do not provide the same mental health benefits as vacation time. West and colleagues propose that this could be due to the habitualness of weekends which prevents people from really appreciating the time off. - Beth Ellwood

11.01.2022 Happy Friyay! Check this out if youd like some guide on nutrition. Repost ... @cosnett_training When met with resistance towards tracking calories and macros - Im a believer in offering a solution, rather than creating another problem. We can put the blame onto the client and tell them if they dont track their food they wont see any results. OR We can offer alternative solutions. Tracking calories and macros is the gold standard for fat loss. It assists with with knowing exactly how much energy is being consumed by each individual. But, we recognise that this method may be too advanced or complex for every single client that walks through our door. Yes, using an eyeball approach to tracking/measuring portion sizes may be unscientific. It may also be a inaccurate way to track our caloric intake. But it is easy, sustainable and may give just enough guidance to those just starting out on a weight loss journey. Heres a nice rough guideline for measuring food with a hand-sized approach. Each main meal should contain: Protein: 2 palm sizes for males, 1 palm size for females. Veggies: 2 Handfuls for males and 1-2 for females Starchy Carbohydrates: (Each individual will vary on how many meals contain starchy carbs) - 1-2 Clenched fists for Males, 1 Clenched fist for females Fats: Tip of thumb for oils, whole thumb for butters and nut butters, 1 small handful for nuts and seeds (This is different to the image provided). NOTE: These are approximate guidelines, within these guidelines you can adapt and manipulate each serving size based on client goals and weight. Using this method, you would track weight loss and adjust as you go. Not losing weight? Subtract 1 handful of starchy carbs and half your serving size of fats.

11.01.2022 What are your weekend exercise plans? Let us know! Repost @neuroscienceneurology Studies carried out on both animals and humans suggest that exercise promotes and modulates neuroplasticity which may translate into cognitive changes. ... . The unerlying mechanisms of how physical exercise promotes neurogenesis is still unclear. Neurotrophins such as, BDNF, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) play a big role. A decline in neurogenesis has been associated with decrease levels of these trophic factors. Both peripheral levels of IGF-1 and VEGF increase following exercise and enter into the brain via the blood brain barrier. What are your thoughts and do you exercise daily ? .

09.01.2022 What used to once be termed whiplash is now more frequently referred to as whiplash associated disorder (WDA), and is caused by sudden acceleration-deceleration (flexion-extension) forces on the neck, such as those seen in MVAs, however that may occur whilst playing footy (in a tackle), in boxing or other sporting-related incidents, and even on a rollercoaster ride! These sudden forces place load on a variety of structures in the neck including muscles, ligaments, joints, bones, discs, nerves and fascia, leading to an array of possible symptoms and clinical presentations. Most commonly seen symptoms include neck pain/stiffness, headaches, dizziness/imbalances, weakness, shoulder, arm, jaw, back pain/stiffness, visual disturbances, difficulty concentrating, and altered sensations.

We were once advised to not use such machinery tools earlier on in our practice because it will not improve our skill sets.

Comment below what you thought of it! If you have not experienced it, you must book in to experience its great benefits.
