Recovery tips post Hyrox from a sports massage therapist πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ

1 - Getting a sports massage will help to alleviate DOM’s, release muscular aches and pains, improve ROM, and recover better πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ
2 - movement can help to loosen soreness, anything from a walk, to light activity to get the heart pumping but not strenuous activity. This can help get your muscles moving again and feeling better πŸ’ͺ
3 - hydration will help flush out toxins from the body, so increasing your water intake & with electrolytes to replace salts lost will help you greatly to recover 🩹

If you have any questions on hyrox or any other sporting event recovery then make sure you pop them in the comments below πŸ‘‡

We all see the before/after photos, but it sometimes happens when my biggest client wins don’t get recorded/captured. I had some after footage from my most recent video unfortunately zoom in massively, and was unusable showing the great results achieved after the treatment.

After all the hard work it is a great result to see first hand what the results can be for someone, coming in with lack of movement in a joint or discomfort, to then leave pain free and better ROM. This is why I love doing what I do, and sometimes I am my own nightmare but not recording the before/after.

I love cleaning my treatment room between clients, making sure it’s ready for the next client to come through the door. Making sure everything is set up correctly is my OCD, towels folded a certain way, tools in the right place.

If you seen this video; why not drop me a follow to see what else I’ve been up to behind the scenes πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ

When you say β€˜okay, just close your eyes and relax’ and they hit you with unbroken eye contact like it’s a staring contest they refuse to lose πŸ‘οΈπŸ‘οΈβ€¦ sir, this is a treatment, not the finals. 😭

β€œNothing builds character like confidently saying β€˜it’s fine’ while the tape is going on… knowing full well future me is about to fight for their life taking it off.” 😭

Drop an emoji of what your face is like when pulling the face when the tape comes off.. πŸ‘‡

Here’s my tip for you, slow gentle pulling against the skin opposite to the tape direction will help, warm soapy water, and also post exercise can be the best ways to remove the taping.

If you’d like to get booked in you can via my Fresha link, and be sure to drop me a follow πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ
