SPORTS MASSAGE

What is Sports Massage?
Sports Massage is a special form of massage and is typically used before, during, and after athletic events. The purpose of the massage is to prepare the athlete for peak performance, to drain away fatigue, to relieve swelling, to reduce muscle tension, to promote flexibility and to prevent injuries.
Purpose of Sports Massage?
The main purpose of sports massage therapy is to help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity. Where minor injuries and lesions occur, due to overexertion and/or overuse. Massage can break them down quickly and effectively. The massage will help prepare the athlete for peak performance, to drain away fatigue, to relieve swelling, to reduce muscle tension, to promote flexibility and to prevent injuries.

Sports therapy- Comrades tips: Water is not enough for long runs

Water is not enough for long runs
1) Your body looses salt, electrolytes and minerals which have to be replenished. Buy sports drink for that matter.

2) Do not, I repeat, do not drink magnesium drinks! If you want you can have magnesium drinks, tablets AFTER your run. During exercise it will only lead to diarrhoea.

3) Gels during the water consumption must be right. Two much water result in a hypotonic –few carb's to your legs. Too little result in diarrhoea and using a sports drink …find a portaloo.

4) Remember never to mix sports drink with water, a practice which will increase your chances of avoiding GI upsets and delivering enough carbohydrate to your muscles

Sports therapy - special edition - INJURIES

The best thing for injuries is REST, and knowing when not to push your body any more.

THE FIRST 24 HOURS ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT!

R EST

Help heal the injuries, however to much can
Make it worse.

Getting a better shave.

First is first deciding which method to use:

· electrical razor
Easier, yet not a close shave. How ever is good to alternate then. If you’re going to use this method than use a shaving oil to provide a smoother gliding surface.
· wet method
Is the most skin friendly method. different shaving products:
* OIL: For all one can apply it under any of the below products, to get an even better shave. Oils are great for dry skins and great for thick, heavy growth, due to it softening the hair. The only problem is that the oil cogs the blades thus one needs to rinse it more often.
* CREAM: Is for dry or sensitive skin, due to a moisture barrier that forms on the skin to help prevent dryness and also helps you against nicks and irritations.
* FOAM: good for oily skins, due to the drying effect on the skin.
*GEL: Good for oily and sensitive skins.
Before shaving look at the direction of the growth of the hair as it is better to shave with the grain. Its best to do a rough stretch of your face and the directions on the areas shaved.
· Chance your blades regularly, the heavier your bead the more frequently you need to chance the blade.
· Best time to shave is 20-30min after waking up, due to the skin being at its most relaxed state.
· Use Luke warm water
· Exfoliate the night before you shave as this lifts up the hairs lying flat on your skin.
· Moisturizes after wards and every other day.
