massage
A massage is no longer a treat - rather,
it is a benficial additional to any exercise program
whatever the
duration or intensity,
A regular massage relieves soreness
and assists in the removal of lactic acid and other waste products
from the body. It also
represents
a
preventive approach to training whereby soft tissues
are kept free of
trigger points and adhesions, thus contributing toward peak neuromuscular
functioning. Contact Suzanne today for more details.

benefits
When
you think of massage you immediately think of rest,
relaxation
and stress relief,
which it obviously gives. These days,
with the amount of stress we have at work, and the
resulting increase in blood pressure, anxiety
and chronic pain, the need for a bit of stress
relief has never been greater.
If you are one of those who tend to do high mileage workouts
each week running, cycling, swimming, weight training
or triathlon training, then you could also benefit from a
massage.
A professional massage helps
loosen tight muscle groups allowing them to move freely
again while at the same time promoting enhanced movement
and flexibility. Massage also relieves muscle fatigue thus
preventing future
injuries.
Massage works by improving circulation
of blood under the skin to targeted muscle groups. This
blood will be carrying
essential nutrients that will help heal and build weak, growing
and damaged areas.
Lying still for
an hour will give you plenty of time
to break away from the daily grind helping your mind unwind.
As your body is held up through a muscular supportive structure,
ensuring this structure is at its most relaxed will enable
you to think, act and work better.
Suzanne, the Get Personal massage therapist, has her own portable
massage table. She visits individuals at their homes and
also massages from
her home in the North Sydney area, using her extensive range
of carefully homemade massage blends.
stress relief
Are you feeling stressed from work? Are your
kids and family getting to you? Have you got a constant neck/head ache?
Your head is supported by several muscle
groups and is often held out of alignment as you work behind
your desk looking up at your
computer. This then tightens your neck muscles and filters a
feeling of stress through them.
The main muscles around
the neck/head area are the sternocleidomastoid and the levator
scapula. These main muscle groups help the head
sit upright. You could test the tightness of these muscles by
giving a simple stretch to the side of your head. If you
feel a tight
stretch then it’s a good chance you have a lot of
stress running through this area.
Building up stress in
this area can cause the body to retain sustained neck discomfort
and headaches. A massage can reduce the tension
in these
muscle groups by isolating their exact insertion
and origin points (ie where muscles attach to
bones), by
using different types of rubbing and massaging skills.
The result will see a a reduction in muscle tension as well as
the removal of body toxins.
relaxation
Lie down, switch off and float away. Massage,
while it can deliver all types of benefits, ultimately leaves you
feeling relaxed. This feeling of relaxation and overall sense of
well being is aided by various devices such as the use of carefully
homemade massage blends and your choice of background music.
All massage blends used by Suzanne
have a distinct healing power through their own individual
smells - lavender for
total relaxation, lemon for healing of muscle injuries. Sufferers
of any oil allergies won’t need to worry as Suzanne can make
up a neutral blend to suit your needs.
