Of all the clients I have treated, this is a common pattern that I see, and that is completely normal. A reason a person could naturally be seated for long periods could be an office job, driving for prolonged spells and so on. But why can prolonged seating cause an issue. The two main reasons are as follows.

Prolonged seating causes your hip flexors to be in a constant, contracted state, which as a domino effect overtime can cause an anterior pelvic tilt which can cause weakness in the glutes and hamstrings which can then cause strain on the lower back.

Posture, naturally people sat for prolonged periods at a computer for example, a hunched posture is quite common which overtime can cause tension in the neck and shoulders.

Does this resonate with you? Do you want to start feeling better in your own body?

Today I treated a client fresh off a 21 km run a few days prior!

Here you see me massaging the clients hamstring, one of many areas we managed to cover during the session. Due to the strenuous nature of the clients race this weekend, I treat the clients calves, hamstrings, quads, tibialis anterior/posterior, glutes and lower back. I am sure she will be feeling the benefits and be ready to take on another race soon!

Have you completed a race recently and are feeling the fatigue and strain from all your hard work? Then don't hesitate to get in touch! Give your body what it needs and deserves 😁

Following on from a fantastic experience at endure 24 running festival at Leeds! I performed pre event massage for a friend of mine partaking in the event.

But why? What are the benefits of this?

Below are quite a few benefits but for me the two most important benefits are as follows.

MENTAL CLARITY - Having a pre event massage helps to mentally prepare you for what is to come, you know you are taking extra precaution in giving yourself the best possible chance of performing well.

BOOSTING PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE - A pre event massage is designed to warm up the clients muscles in order to 'prepare them for battle' stimulating blood flow to the area through fast, superficial massage helps to activate the muscles that will be needed for you to be on top form to get the best out of yourself physically.

Have you got a big event coming up? Do you want to give yourself the best chance of being ready to perform at your best?

Then you will find me at Absolute Fitness Clitheroe

Today I am at endure 24 at Bramham park, Leeds supporting my truly inspiring friend Simon.

I have treated Simon in the build up to this event to keep him injury free to allow him to train the best he can for this truly incredible challenge.

The most I have ever run in a week is 60 miles, Simon has run 75 miles a week, 5 weeks in a row in preparation for this event. So to be here to support him with pre event and intra event massage to aid him in his goal is a privilege.

His goal is to run 100 miles in 24 hours! And I have every faith he wiill smash it!

Read more about his story on his justgiving page, if anybody is inspired by his story, then he will appreciate every penny donated.

Keep going simon!

Are you suffering from shoulder pain and would like to be proactive on fixing that issue?

They are many reasons you could be experiencing shoulder pain, such as the reasons listed below, but sometimes it isn't the shoulder region that is the direct reason you are experiencing pain.

Your shoulder is a ball and socket joint, a synovial joint which allows the most movement, so with that being said, to allow for such a range of movement, they must be alot of muscles attaching to that joint to allow for that to happen!

So many different muscles attach onto the shoulder girdle/scapula, your biceps/triceps, Trapezius, pectorals, rhomboids, some of the most common examples of muscles which that are overworked or fatigued, can cause strain at the shoulder joint.

Are you a chef suffering from repetitive strain from prepping food?

Are you a plasterer suffering from repetitive internal and external rotation of the shoulder?

If for any reason this post resonates with you and you would like to book in. I am here to help!
