After Care Recommendations

After a remedial massage, it's essential to follow a few post-treatment practices to maximise the benefits and promote continued well-being:

Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and help flush out toxins released during the massage.
Rest & Relax: Allow your body time to absorb the effects of the massage. Avoid strenuous activities immediately afterwards.
Gentle Movement: Engage in gentle movements or stretches suggested by your therapist to maintain flexibility.
Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to how your body responds. If you experience any discomfort or soreness, communicate with your therapist and consider applying ice or heat to the treated areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes frozen shoulder?

The exact cause of frozen shoulder is unclear, but factors like age, gender and certain medical conditions may contribute.
What is trigger point therapy?

Trigger point therapy is a form of manual therapy that involves applying pressure to specific points in the muscles, known as trigger points, to alleviate pain and dysfunction. These trigger points are often tight bands of muscle fibres that can cause discomfort, referred pain and limited range of motion.

In the context of frozen shoulder, trigger point therapy can be beneficial in several ways. It aims to release the tension and knots in the muscles surrounding the shoulder joint, which can contribute to the stiffness and pain associated with frozen shoulder. By applying targeted pressure to these trigger points, therapists work to promote relaxation and improved blood circulation, facilitating better muscle function.

Additionally, trigger point therapy can address referred pain, where discomfort is felt in areas away from the actual source. This is particularly relevant for individuals with frozen shoulder, as pain can radiate to the neck, upper back and arms.
