Long hours of sitting, looking down, and responding to stress with our shoulders can cause a build up of over worked, tired and tense muscles and soft tissues and cause pain and headaches.
The neck is burdened with the tedious task of supporting our heavy heads. Working and resting, in a technology driven society, we are all at risk of tension and microtrauma from desk based postures in our head, neck and shoulder areas.
Battling against gravity - our muscles and are designed to glide freely around joints and across neighbouring connective soft tissues to perform an array of specified movements. However, when we are static for so long, with poor posture and work exposed tension, combined with constant gravitational exposure (an adult head weighs approx. 5kg) the body adapts and creates stability with stiffness, and generally compromises movement.
MASSAGE & REMEDIAL THERAPY & MYOFASCIAL RELEASE are all hands-on techniques to ease and re-establish pain free movement in the head, neck and shoulders (the rest of the body too), plus treating to help you relax and lessen muscle and soft tissue tension.
