Regular Deep Tissue Release And Sports Massage Advantage
Do you
find yourself aching all over and constantly
tired?
Do you know the sports massage advantage to your muscles, body, normal living and sports?
Many people have constant tiredness and ache in their muscles and joints without clearly understanding the reason why, yet they choose to live with it. Interestingly, they become surprised when they find out that the thing that is contributing to all their aches and fatigue woes is also the same thing that will help increase their performance – yes, their very own muscles.
You see, for muscles to perform their best, they need to be well rested, relaxed and at their optimal lengths (when they’re not relaxed, they tend to be contracted to below-optimal lengths) for proper muscle contraction and relaxation. Otherwise, they’d have to put in more just to get the same amount of work done (it’s like have to put in 300% effort to get 80% of results).
What happens is that when they’re tense, they tighten and shorten, and what that happens, movements becomes clunky and chunky because our muscles are resisting our intended movement.
Below Optimum Muscles = Below Optimum Movement
We all have below optimum muscles, that’s a given. We all have muscles that are constantly shortened, tight, insufficiently nourished and rested (if you have higher levels of psychological stress, multiply this 4 times) because of repeated strains caused by poor posture and bad movement.
You may say, I’m not affected, I’m ok. Really, muscle tightness affects a whole range of people:
To summarize quickly, all these below optimum muscle lengths will cause to have two main problems:
Stuff that normally needs 30 minutes may set you back 60 minutes because of the aches and pains and the amount of rests you need to take in between. And with all the amount of stuff we have everyday…it can snowball quite quickly.
Stretching or heating muscles isn’t enough (it’s a good start), but tight and tensed, contracted muscles will benefit a lot from regular deep tissue release and sports massage sessions which is able to both treat those tight muscles and trigger spots and to prevent them from coming back.
Often patients don’t know the difference between clinical deep tissue massage or sports massage advantage versus the regular massage services and the benefits they carry.
Clinical deep tissue massage combines both clinical and deep tissue massage– it is a massage system combining solid massage techniques with sound clinical knowledge and techniques for therapeutic purpose.
Our muscles doesn’t just contain muscle fibres – really, it’s a super complex multi-structured physiological system which has connecting fascia, blood vessels, nerves and other connective tissues.
It’d require more clinical and advanced techniques to manage the smooth functioning of this muscle super-complex.
