18.01.2022 Checking in on all my beautiful souls? What's on your mind? Are you doing okay? ... It's normal to feel a bit off, lazy or unmotivated. That's okay, sit with it. My advice to you: Time frame the blues. Meaning, have 10mins, 1 hour, or even a day to just be. Sit with it without forcing anything but that emotion. When you have the energy and you have cried it out, slammed a few pillows into walls, stand up. Take a big deep, lung filling breath. Hold it for 6 seconds, then let it out for 8 seconds. Repeat, but with a BIG sigh. Repeat. Repeat again. ....and maybe one more for good measure. Re-assess: Now how are you feeling? Good? Fantastic! This is something you can do ANYTIME . . . . . We are our harshest critic. Be kind with to yourself on those dips. #myotherapy #myomind #myotherpist #breathe #lockdown #williamstown #mindbody

17.01.2022 NEEDLES. What? Dry needling is not the same as acupuncture, although there are similarities between the two techniques. The main difference between dry needling and acupuncture is the theory behind why the methods work. ... Dry needling’s primarily focused on the reduction of pain and restoration of function through the release of myofascial trigger points (knots) in the muscle. What does it do? When the needle is inserted into the centre of a knot, blood pools around the needle triggering the tight muscle fibres to relax. It helps to provide those fibres with fresh oxygen and nutrients, as well as flushing away any additional acidic chemicals. This reaction, leads to the loosening of the local blood and nerve supply. Everybody is different and can respond differently. Some side effects may occur, including spotting or bruising, fainting, nausea, discomfort or even altered energy levels. These symptoms should last no longer than 24 to 48 hours after treatment. When treating my clients, everything is done within your comfort zone and with your consent. . . . . . #laurenhokulani #myotherapy #mdn #dryneedling #health #massage #recovery #wellness #pain #rehab #muscle #healing

08.01.2022 Sometimes you gotta let out the FRUSTRATION!! During this time, it's frustrating to not be able to do the things you want, train the way you use to or see the people you want/need to see. I'm not saying you should break things! Not at all. ... You're ALLOWED to feel angry and upset. The message here is to make space for those emotions, let them out in a healthy way with altering the way you so things, find a flow in your daily lives. Work on plans or ideas that have been sitting dormant for a while. Something's I have been working on is: Yoga via YouTube or your favourite yoga teacher (if they are online) Do a staircase workout. Beathing/meditation practice. De-cluttering is amazing in letting go of the old and making room for the new. Working on new projects that get those creative juices flowing. Video chat loved ones for peace of mind. Work on things you CAN do during this lockdown. && Yes, sometimes breaking sh*t helps with letting out steam. (IF you decide to do it, make sure the items are YOURS and is not needed in the future and please do it safely) #laurenhokulani #myotherapy #myotherpist #williamstown #breakingthings #lockdown2020 (video taken Pre-lockdown)

08.01.2022 Pain! I've had enough! Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensation and emotional experience that links to tissue damage. It allows the body to react and prevent further tissue damage. People feel pain when a signal travels through nerve fibers to the brain for interpretation. Pain is not just a physical sensation. It is influenced by attitudes, beliefs, personality and social factors, and can affect emotional and mental well-being.... Although two people may have the same pain condition, their experience of living with pain can be vastly differentif you live with pain, you would already know this. Pain in manageable and we can do something about it. The first step is recognizing it then doing something about it. . . . . . . www.laurenhokulani.com #laurenhokulani #health #fitness #wellness #workout #rehab #painrelief #motivation #exercise #backpain #injury #chronicpain

02.01.2022 How often should I get treated Lets break it down: - How are you feeling? ... - Have you started a new training program? - Are there any new stressors? - What is your body saying? If you are training regularly and have a consistent schedule with work- Aim for once fortnight. If you are training heavily and have an active job- You may consider getting a treatment once a week. If you are feeling great and need a tune up once in a while- consider treatment once every three - five weeks. I have clients that I see weekly because treatment to them is a necessity in their week. The love that it makes them feel amazing, helps with their mental and we can have a good chat. Therapists are here to prevent injury and hope to get your recovered quickly if you do become injured or have pain. Recap: things to consider is your time, finances and most of all- how you and your body feel. Don't wait too long until the pain in unbearable to get help. . . . . . #myotherapy #laurenhokulani #massage #heathylifestyle #gettreated #recovery #healthy #therapy #mentalhealth

01.01.2022 CONGESTION! Do you find yourself getting congested when getting treatment? This is why:... If you are prone (face down) its simple gravity. With all the pushing and movement of lymph and blood through the body it has no where to go but out your mucus membranes or be flushed out via kidneys in the form of urine. It's normal for a someone to who is getting massaged faced down to get a big of congestion- especially if they have a lot of built up muscle tension being broken down. How do we fix? We can re-adjust you during treatment to make your stay more comfortable. Have you sniff a bit of eucalyptus/ peppermint essential oils or end with a face massage to de-congest your sinuses. . . . . . #laurenhokulani #myotherapy #health #wellness #breathe #massage
