24.01.2022 PART 2: Can a client with acute or chronic inflammation get a massage? This is dependant on the individual case, which is why it is essential to have a thorough understanding of your clients condition before commencing your session. If your client is experiencing acute inflammation such as an injury, then massage to the area is contraindicated until the acute stage of inflammation has subsided. Massaging directly onto an area that is inflamed can make it far worse and furthe...r irritate the muscle, tissues or joints, as well as aggravate an injury. In some cases, it may be beneficial to massage the areas around an injury to loosen up surrounding muscles and release any restrictions, but this will be dependant on the individual case. For the majority of clients experiencing the acute stage of inflammation, it is recommended to wait until this stage has passed before having a massage therapy session. Massage therapy in the later healing phases of an injury can support to increase movement and relieve stiffness and pain in joints. For clients experiencing chronic inflammation, there is varied research as to whether massage can be directly beneficial. The following is important to consider for clients experiencing chronic inflammation: The cause of the inflammation needs to be fully understood by both you and your client. If your client is experiencing chronic inflammation but is unsure as to the cause, then it is important to refer them onto their GP for a diagnosis. Massage therapy has been shown to support clients in lowering stress levels, improving overall mood and improving sleep. These three factors will have a positive impact upon the body which in turn, may support to reduce chronic inflammation in your client. Chronic inflammation caused by conditions such as arthritis may be supported by massage therapy by relaxing muscles and releasing tension, reducing your clients pain and overall physical discomfort. As with any condition your client may be suffering from, ensuring that there has been a proper diagnosis, knowing your scope of practice and having a clear line of communication with your client is essential. Massage therapy as part of an overall healthy lifestyle for your client can support with chronic inflammation, however cannot claim to fix the issue. It is important to be clear about this with your client and if required, refer them on to their health professional for anything outside your scope of practice.

22.01.2022 5 interesting facts about the heart Your heart is the hardest working muscle in your body. Did you know, that your heart is part of the bodys circulatory system? and that it is responsible for pumping blood through a network of vessels 60,000 miles long which supplies your body with oxygen, nutrients and removes harmful waste matter? This week we take a look at 5 interesting and peculiar facts about our most essential and vital organ the heart! Is the Heart a Muscle or an... Organ? In fact, it is both! It is considered a muscular organ, which is a group of tissues that work together to perform a specific function. The heart does not need a brain, or a body, to keep beating The heart will keep beating as long as it has oxygen and it has its own electrical system, which causes it to function. Because of this, the heart can continue to beat for a short time after brain death, or after being removed from the body. The size of your heart is only about as big as your clenched fist the smaller things in life really are the most precious! Brushing your teeth has an impact on your heart there is some research suggesting that certain bacteria that causes gum disease may also raise your risk of heart disease. Even though research findings have been diverse, theres no disadvantage to taking wholesome care of your teeth and gums. Myth buster Does my heart stop when I sneeze? this is actually a myth! Your heart does not stop when you sneeze. In fact, when you sneeze your heart compensates for the increase in your intrathoracic pressure by changing its regular heart beat momentarily to adjust. So, take great care of your ticker, and be sure to get regular blood tests and check-ups with your local GP. See more

19.01.2022 This week we take things back to basics with 5 reasons that massage really makes a difference. In a world that can at times seem overrun by thoughts, questions, decisions and ideas, massage does something unique It brings focus back to the body. Perhaps if the body could speak a little louder, we would hear things like Youre pushing me too hard! That food makes me feel ill! Youre being a bit too rough with me! Or the all time classic Slow down! Massage gives the micr...ophone back to the body, and gives the client an opportunity to feel what is going on in a relaxed and safe environment, far away from the noisy thoughts that take up our day. So, without further ado, here are 5 reasons that massage makes a difference: It brings focus back to the body When youre receiving a massage, whether it be to your legs, arms, back or shoulders, a focus point is brought back to the physical body. In many cases, a person has sought out a massage practitioner because they have become aware of aches and pains that have been interfering in their daily life. On the massage table, the focus becomes the message the body is communicating, which can be a great opportunity to look at ways that you can look after yourself to prevent the aches and pains occurring in the first place. It is deeply relaxing In our hectic modern world, having a space where you can let go and deeply relax is invaluable. The best part is, you have paid for it, so there can be no excuses for getting up to do something more useful! Yep when you have a massage, there is nothing to do but relax and feel. It can lift our mood, and make us feel better Studies have linked massage to an improvement in mood, as a result of lowering cortisol levels in the body by as much as 30%, which in turn increases the chemical serotonin. Cortisol is the hormone responsible for stress, whilst serotonin is a chemical in the body that fights pain and helps contribute to feelings of happiness and wellbeing. It can improve flexibility and range of motion Massage has been shown to support an increase of flexibility in the body which in turn improves an individuals range of motion. If all our experiences in life occur whilst we are moving in our body, then isnt increasing our range of motion increasing our ability to experience life? How much better are lifes experiences from a body that can move, bend and flex? It can support with our aches and pains It is inevitable that life has wear and tear on our bodies, and at one time or another, chances are we are going to experience some aches and pains. There has been increasing research into massages ability to reduce pain, and numerous studies that link massage to a significant reduction in pain via reducing stiffness as well as inflammation. Massage is therefore a modality to appreciate in what it offers and the differences it can make in someones day to day living.

13.01.2022 Here are some interesting facts you may not know about Massage Therapy. Massage uses touch to stimulate the release of endorphins, the bodys natural pain killers. There are approximately 5 million touch receptors in our skin, with 3,000 in a finger tip alone. It has been said that massage is one of the oldest and simplest forms of healthcare.

05.01.2022 The human body is amazing. From its processes to its resilience and everything in between, the human body is something to be celebrated. So, this week, lets celebrate the human body with five facts that remind us just how amazing our bodies are! The human body emits its own light We literally glow! Research has shown that the human body emits its own visible light 1000 times less intense than the levels that our human eyes are able to sense. Further research shows that... this glow increases and falls depending on the time of day it is. Your heart has its own electrical impulse, meaning that as long as it has oxygen, it can continue beating even if it is no longer in your body! The human skeleton completely renews itself every 10 years. So, in ten years time you will have a completely different skeleton to the one youre currently residing with. In an adult, blood circulates around 19,000km in a 24-hour period. This is the equivalent of travelling across the widest part of the Pacific Ocean every single day. If our DNA was uncoiled, it would stretch 10 billion miles (or 16,093,440,000 km). That is the distance from Earth to Pluto and then back. There are thousands more fascinating facts about our human bodies out there, and more being discovered every day. So, if you work with the body directly, such as in massage therapy, then take a moment to appreciate the incredible apparatus that youre working with - It is truly something to be celebrated.
