Giving the cups a clean after another cupping session
Why cupping?? π€·
π Uses suction to decompress muscle, fascia and soft tissue
π Reduces pain, stiffness and chronic muscle tension
π While helping to improve circulation to the tissues and range of motion (ROM)
ππ€ Based at "Revolution health club" on the Cambridge science park, if I can help anyone just drop me a message π
βοΈ Box squats!!!
β
A great variation for anyone working through injury rehabilitation, as they place a lot less stress on the joints, especially the lower back area, hips / pelvis and knees! As you're keeping a more vertical shin angle π
β
Also a safer variation for athletes β½ππ₯ππΎπ½ππ who are "in season" with great reward but importantly low risk, still improve / maintain strength and develop force and power.

π With the coming up in a couple of weeks, a lot of runners will be in their final phases of prep and starting their taper down, this can be a great time to add in a "pre event massage" π to aid recovery from training and prepare the body physically and mentally for the race, if you need some help/advice feel free to get in touch π½π
ποΈ Distance running is particularly hard on the body, especially for people newer to the sport, the continuous impact places a lot of stress on the muscles, joints and connective tissue....
Here are a few exercises you can easily add into your routine to aid your running and help reduce those niggling aches/pains.
1. Soleus raises (lower calf muscle takes more strain in distance running)
2. Hip hitch (targeting the smaller glute muscles to help stabilise the hip during running action)
3. Low to high plank (improve core strength and also upper body strength which is key in running)
βοΈ Hope these help, and if you have any questions or want any information on "pre event massage" drop me a message π

Two other services I offer alongside sports massage therapy, is "DRY NEEDLING" and "DRY CUPPING"
Focusing on the "Dry needling" first...
This treatment is carried out by inserting really fine needles into painful knots (aka trigger points), which are areas of muscle fibers that are shortened, thickened/hardened. The treatment is particularly helpful for issues such as...
πΉShoulder pain/reduced range of movement
πΉBack pain (esp low back)
πΉPlantar fascitis
πΉITB syndrome
πΉ Migraine/headaches
πΉ Tendonitis (i.e. tennis/golfers elbow)
The needles help by relaxing the trigger point, improving blood flow, reducing inflammation, improving nerve connection & releasing the body's natural pain relievers.. Endorphins.
βοΈ In the video I'm working on a client with tennis elbow, using needling treatment, hands on friction work and dynamic rehab exercises βοΈ
