𝐂𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐎

Just a heads up for all my clients, I will be unavailable next week (4th - 10th July) due to football.

𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝟏𝟏𝐭𝐡 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲.

Whether your training hard in the gym, pre season has started or your just feeling the effects of day to day life - Drop me a DM to book an appointment

𝑷𝑹𝑬 𝑺𝑬𝑨𝑺𝑶𝑵 𝑻𝑰𝑷𝑺

1. Go into pre season with a good base of fitness - its important to enjoy your time off but don’t get left behind. Make sure your body is prepared for the load and physical demand that is coming its way.

2. Nutrition - Fuelling your body with the correct foods it needs pre/post training will have a huge impact on how you perform and recover.

3. Hydration - Drinking the right amount of water before, during and after training is massively important. Water regulates your body temperature, lubricates your joints and helps your body transport vital nutrients around the body to give you energy.

4. Sleep - Aim for 8-9 hours per night. Getting optimal amount of sleep is vital to help reduce the risk of injury and help your body recover better!

5. Enjoy it! - After spending a few weeks away from the lads, enjoy getting back in together and pushing eachother to be the best use can be! The rewards will come! 🏆

Extra Tip: Book in for a massage - it helps the most 👀

𝑷𝑹𝑬-𝑺𝑬𝑨𝑺𝑶𝑵

Do you take your recovery seriously during pre season?
If your answer is no… YOU SHOULD!

Massage is a vital part of recovery for many elite level athletes.

3 ways massage can help your body recover:
•Increased elimination of exercise waste products - Lactic Acid
• Reduce the effects of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS)
• Improve recovery time between sessions - less chance of injury

If your feeling sore after intense sessions, drop me a message to get booked in🤝🏻

To all my clients, I just want to say a big thank you for your continued support.
After a long, hard football season Im off on holiday tomorrow for some much needed rest & recovery!💆🏻‍♂️

Appointments are unavailable until 6th June.
If you wish to book an appointment from then onwards, feel free to message me and I will get you sorted!🤝🏻

𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐎𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐍 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐆𝐄𝐓 𝐀 𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐒 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐆𝐄?

This is a common question I get asked from clients after treatment.
I usually answer with “It depends on how your body feels”

This all depends on your lifestyle/workouts.
There can be many factors that lead to your body needing some sports massage relief.

How hard/often do you train?
How long do you sit at your desk in work?

For elite/high level sports athletes getting a sports massage once a week as part of your recovery routine would be highly recommended.

For sports people who train 3/4 times a week or regular gym users, getting a sports massage every 2-4 weeks would be recommended.

For people who exercise 1/2 times a week or have a job that involves sitting at a desk or driving for long periods of time, getting a sports massage every 4-6 weeks is recommended.

𝑯𝑨𝑴𝑺𝑻𝑹𝑰𝑵𝑮𝑺

The hamstring muscles are responsible for your hip and knee movements in walking, squatting, bending your knees and tilting your pelvis.

The three major muscles of the hamstrings are the:
• Biceps Femoris
• Semimembranosus
• Semitendinosus

Soft tissues called tendons connect these muscles to the bones of the pelvis, knee and lower leg.

Hamstring muscle injuries are the most common sports injury. If you suffer from tight hamstrings or have general muscles soreness, drop me a DM to get sorted!🙌🏼

𝑸𝑼𝑨𝑫𝑹𝑰𝑪𝑬𝑷𝑺

Your quadriceps or quads are often talked about as being one solid muscle. But your quads are actually a group of four muscles located at the front of your thigh!
The word ‘Quadricep’ is the Latin word for “Four Headed.”

These four muscles (listed in the image) work together to help you do all sorts of things that you might take for granted, like standing, walking and running. They keep your kneecap stable and help you maintain your standing posture.

Due to relying on your quads to do a lot of physical activities they can be prone to injury. If you suffer from tight quads, don’t hesitate to get in touch and I can help you out🙌🏼

𝐖𝐇𝐘 𝐈𝐒 𝐈𝐓 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐂𝐇?

Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage💪🏼

Stretching has many benefits and I have listed some in the post above!

If you suffer from tight muscles, feel free to drop me a DM and I can help🤝
