MAINTENANCE MASSAGE

People, who come to me for treatment, often ask "how often should I get a massage. I want to keep on top of my pain?"

As a general 'rule of thumb' I would say once a month.

Sometimes a single massage may not be sufficient. What I would recommend following assessment and initial massage treatment of 50, 65, or 80 minutes is a follow up session(s) depending on the issue and whether it is acute or chronic. This can be discussed on the appointment.

Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation...

Academic research has shown that engaging and increasing exercise and physical activity levels can lead to having positive outcomes in relation to physiological and psychological health. From a physical point of view these include a combination of health benefits such as reduced blood pressure, reduced heart rate, reduced pain levels, as well as reduced associated risk of falls and a reduction in pain and disability for people with chronic pain and osteoarthritis (OA).

As well as physical health benefits it also shows it can help in reducing aspects of depression, anxiety and reduction in fatigue.

Being physically active and increasing exercise levels help to improve physical health through improving, strength, aerobic endurance, balance and mobility.

MOVE 2 IMPROVE

A number of people are suffering from injuries, or simply a lack of mobility and could be on a relatively long waiting list for an NHS Physiotherapy appointment.

The best way to encourage and expedite recovery is to help in getting the body moving and prescribing specific and appropriate strength exercises to facilitate movement and reduce pain.

At Fit 2 Perform we can help guide and motivate you to ‘help yourself,’ with exercise demonstrations at our treatment room in Warminster. The objective is to show you exercises that you can take home and practice. I have many clients who I provide with exercises after a sports injury or massage treatment.

You won’t need to kit your house out with gym equipment either!

If you are a member of a gym, exercises can be shown that can be carried out at your gym as well as other exercises to do at home.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to message me. Likewise if you would like to book an appointment please message me on 07870 210445. We also put regular updates on our Website, Facebook and Instagram pages so please follow and like these pages to keep up to date😊
