Articles Of The Week August 9, 2020

August 8, 2020/in Massage, Massage Clinic, Massage Therapist, Massage Therapy/by Jamie Johnston

If you’ve been following this blog for any length of time, you know I love this guy. Here’s another great video on being a movement optimist when it comes to the low back and spinal flexion.

“Do You Need To Worry About Spine Flexion And Low Back Pain?” – Greg Lehman

Some new updates on helping people with persistent pain…however, patient centred care remains at the centre of our focus.

“Commonly Used Treatments For Chronic Pain Can Do More Harm Than Good And Should Not Be Used, Says NICE In Draft Guidance” – National Institute For Health And Care Excellence

When we look at some of the causes and issues around pain and specifically low back pain, things can seem fairly complicated. However, when we look at the modern research around this, it really doesn’t have to be.

“Simplifying The Treatment And Management For Low Back Pain” – Eric Purves

Inevitably we’ve all had a patient come in asking for “deep tissue massage”. But, what is this really?, it can mean different things to different people. Well, this is a great description and a modern narrative we can use when discussing this with patients.

“What Is A Deep Tissue Massage? A Modern Narrative” – Heather Thuessen

Do you have patients who are regular gym-goers, or athletes who come in for treatment because they’re sore after a hard workout? Well, there may be a dangerous condition result if they push too hard.

“High-Intensity Workouts May Put Regular Gym Goers At Risk Of Rhabdomyolysis, A Rare But Dangerous Condition” – Christopher Gaffney
