Pain Issue Related To Rectus Femoris Muscle And Sports Massage Therapy

Posted on by

Our clinic called Pain Relief Massage Clinic on the Gold Coast often receives customers who have huge muscles in their thighs such as hamstrings and quadriceps. Bodybuilders tend to have what I call overgrown muscles in their legs but rectus femoris muscle is easy to palpate and treat regardless of its size. Regular sports massage is essential for bodybuilders and athletes on the Gold Coast unless they don’t mind being accident-prone.

The rectus femoris muscle is one of the quadriceps muscles located in the front part of the thigh, linked to the hip area and the knee joint. All parts of the quadriceps are attached to the knee cap via the quadriceps tendon. The other three parts that make the quadriceps muscle are called vastus lateralis, vastus medialis and vastus intermedius. The rectus femoris muscle is located exactly in the front on the thigh, right in the middle and its function is to help extend the knee as well as flexing the thigh.

One particular characteristic of the rectus femoris muscle is the fact that it is the only muscle used in hip flexing so injuries to the rectus femoris are also called hip flexor strains. Due to its location, rectus femoris injury occurs in athletes who use force movement such as kicking a ball or sprinting, so football and soccer players are statistically more prone to injury either from overuse or a force movement.

Explosive movements, lack of warming up before exercise or an abnormal posture of the knee while engaging the rectus femoris muscle are the most common causes of injury. People who feel pain and continue heavy exercising or activity involving this muscle risk deep tears and possibly the complete tear of the muscle so caution is advised, especially with athletes and people who work out regularly.

The first sign of injury and inflammation is a sharp pain in the groin area during the use of the rectus femoris as well as pain during knee raises and kicking. A person with a rectus femoris injury will usually feel like something is blocking their movement and may experience a high level of pain when trying to force their movement past their stiffness. In most cases, mild to severe pain as well as weakness is experienced at first.

If a person experiences severe pain and impairment, especially if they are a younger person such as an adolescent who hasn’t had fully developed bones and muscles yet, a medical opinion is needed to make sure that no bones have been broken. Sometimes, if the muscle has been torn completely, surgery is needed, but in most of the time, when tears are not as severe, bed rest and over the counter treatment along with some massage therapies will lead to complete healing.

Some people may experience bruising and tenderness when pressing the area. Immediate care should include the immobilization of the knee in 120° of flexion and ice application; this is extremely important because if the leg is held into a resting flat position the muscle will form scar tissue that will impede flexing the knee properly and will cause a delayed healing process and even more pain during the first phases.

The treatment for a rectus femoris injury is usually simple and it includes rest and applying ice on the area while there is swelling and pain. Ice should be applied for the first 48 hours, once every 20 minutes to an hour; this helps greatly reduce the inflammation and pain. Patients can also take over the counter anti-inflammation medication to help with the swelling and pain. As the swelling subsides and the pain disappears it is important to restart your normal day to day activities as much as you can.

Light exercise, such as using a stationary bike as well as long walks can help a person with an injury recover faster. If the person is an athlete, they will need to follow the guidance of their doctor and sports massage therapist to see what type of rehabilitation workout would be appropriate at their respective healing phase. Recovering from a rectus femoris muscle injury will usually take a couple of weeks, if the tear is more superficial it could take up to a week to heal but if it’s a severe tear it will sometimes take a couple of months to a year, which can make things difficult for athletes who have to participate in competitions.

If the patient is not an athlete, they can do stretching at home by slowly flexing their knee for a few times a day until it is comfortable to increase the difficulty.

Other natural methods can help with the treatment of a muscle injury as well as making sure that you prevent any other injury. Practicing yoga, stretching regularly or regular sports massage sessions between workouts can do wonders in making sure that your muscles are healthy and strong, as well as help you relax and rest properly.

Sports massage therapy is extremely important and can be of great help for athletes who are going through an intensive workout regimen to help their muscles cope with the amount of exercise needed. Those recovering after an injury will notice that sports massage therapy can help eliminating scar tissue as well as managing any pain that they might still experience.

Treating Dysfunctional Deltoid Muscles With A Sports Massage On The Gold Coast

Posted on by

Men on the Gold Coast tend to have big Deltoid muscles. They do weight lifting regularly at the gym and it looks like they are trying to make those muscles grow bigger and bigger. But you have to be very careful when you do weight lifting regularly.

In general, the more you do weight lifting, the stronger the muscles become. At the same time, the more you do weight lifting, the stiffer the muscles become. Often those muscles eventually come to the point where they cannot be loosened by manual treatments any more and develop constant ache and soreness unless you have a regular sports massage.

The deltoid muscle is one of the most important muscles in the body when it comes to arm function, as well as quite a painful muscle to have injured, as anyone who has ever been to the gym can certainly confirm.

The deltoid is the muscle that gives the shoulder its rounded shape. The muscle is formed from at least seven groups which are independently operated by the central nervous system. The deltoid is made up of three groups of fibers which are also called “heads.”

The first group of fibers is called the anterior fibers or the clavicular fibers. They arise from a big part of the anterior border of the clavicle as well as the upper part of the lateral third of the clavicle. The anterior part of this fiber’ group as well as its tendons originate next to the lateral fibers of the pectoralis major muscle.

The fibers of the pectoralis major muscle and those of the deltoid are closely related with only a small space through which the cephalic vein passes stopping the two from being one continuous muscle. The anterior deltoid fibers are also called the front delts.

The second fibrous group is referred to as the lateral fibers or in some cases as the acromial fibers. Other names for this muscle group include middle deltoids, side deltoids or outer deltoids. These strains of fibers come from the superior surface of the acromion process of the scapula.

The third group of fibers is called the posterior fibers also known as the spinal fibers. They are also sometimes referred to as the posterior deltoids or the rear deltoids. These fibers arise from the lower lip of the posterior border of the spine of the scapula.

This complex muscle structure all leads to the point of insertion in the deltoid tuberosity on the middle lateral aspect of the shaft of the humerus. From the three fibrous groups the middle fibers pass vertically, the anterior fibers pass obliquely and backward and laterally while the posterior pass obliquely forward and laterally.

The insertion itself is divided into two, sometimes three areas which often times correspond to the muscle’s origin. The insertion of the deltoid fibers has an arch shape and also has strong fascial connections, both anterior as well as posterior. The deltoid fascia is also connected to the medial and lateral intermuscular septa as well as the brachial fascia.

The deltoid muscle gets its blood via the posterior circumflex humeral artery as well as the deltoid part of the thoracoacromial artery which is a branch of the axillary artery. As far as nerves are concerned the deltoid muscle is innervated by the axillary nerve which comes from the anterior rami of the cervical nerves C5 and C6.

When it comes to problems that may arise with this particular muscle group, tears, atrophy and enthesopathy are amongst the most severe. Unlike a lot of muscles in the human body, deltoid tears are quite rare, often appearing after severe injury or dislocation.

For atrophy, the causes can be several, with aging, lack of use, and muscular dystrophy being among the most often met. Other causes for atrophy include cachexia, denervation or iatrogenic injury.

Deltoid strains are among the most often met problems with this muscle. They can occur quite frequently and when they do, pain can be felt in the front of the shoulder. A quick way to see if your muscle has suffered a strain is by lifting your arm to the front while keeping it straight.

In case the muscle is torn, tenderness is a symptom while some swelling can also occur. In case of grave injuries, bruises can also appear. Rotator cuff strains are more common than deltoid strains and will mostly manifest the same symptoms.

The best way to keep your muscles trouble-free is to have a regular massage that loosens each muscles. As we always say, you do not need to request a service called Sports Massage, deep tissue massage or remedial massage at a massage clinic on the Gold Coast.

Instead, just explain the benefit you would like to achieve. All you have to say is, “I want to be loosened.” Then the therapist will come up with the feature for that requested benefit.

Sports Massage On The Gold Coast For Gluteus Medius Muscle Problem

Posted on by

Many people visit our Pain Relief Massage Clinic here on the Gold Coast and bring their hip problems. They often complain of hip or buttock pain which can be constant ache or pain by motions or both. These pain and discomfort often come from gluteus medius muscle and treatment of this particular muscle is not very difficult. This muscle is easily accessible unless it’s covered by a thick layer of fat.

What we call sports massage or deep tissue massage can target the trouble spot of this tissue, get rid of the contraction knot and give customers a good pain relief they want instantly.

The muscle called gluteus medius is one of the gluteus muscles in the buttocks; this particular muscle is very strong and provides rotation of the thigh and supports the hips while walking. Gluteus Medius is attached to the leg at the top of the femur and is also quite close to the hip joint. The fibres of the gluteus medius become a strong tendon that goes on the lateral surface of the greater trochanter with a bursa that separates the tendon of the muscle from its surface.

A healthy gluteus medius promotes balanced and steady walking. In a neutral position the gluteus medius along with the gluteus minimus pulls the thigh away from the midline and when contracted they support the body, especially the pelvis, on one leg. If the muscle becomes injured or weak the knee would go inwards and create stress on the hip and the entire foot.

This causes a limp or abnormal walking, and both of them can be extremely difficult to manage and very painful. It can also cause a condition called trochanteric bursitis which is very painful and involves a great deal of medication, physiotherapy or sports massage to manage.

There are various types of strains related to the gluteus medius and they are linked to a condition called gluteus medius syndrome, which involves the inflammation of the hip and mild to serious pain. The strains that are grade 1 will cause pain but the tendon is not affected, however, if a person experiences a grade 2 type of strain, this will usually involve overstretched tissue or even a partially ruptured tissue.

In both these cases the function of the muscle might be decreased so those experiencing this condition should take the necessary precautions to avoid any strain on that particular muscle. The injuries themselves are caused by high intensity training, too frequent training or even a training session that is too long.

Depending on the type of activity you are doing, there are several ways to increase the risk to such an injury. People who play endurance sports such as distance running or race running are more prone to injure their gluteus medius muscle, especially if the body is not warmed enough for the specific activity.

On the other hand people with poor strength and flexibility are also prone to have this type of injury. There are also genetic factors that can contribute to some people being more at risk to injure their gluteus medius muscle such as legs that are extremely long or a poor alignment in the lower legs, such as a wide pelvis with knees that are too locked up.

The symptoms patients usually experience after an injury are numerous. The most common is pain with reduced function, especially when walking or running. There is also some tenderness to the outer hip along with swelling in some cases. Sometimes people might have some redness in the area where the injury occurred. Those who notice these signs should always make sure that they limit their movement as it may worsen their injury especially with hip movement. They should carefully be transported to a place where they can lie down.

In order to prevent injuries to your gluteus medius muscle, there are several things that need to be taken care of. For example, warming up and stretching well before any physical activity you do will surely lower your chances for any type of injury. Those who don’t engage in physical activity should make sure that they start some routine to avoid any injuries and maintain their physical strength. These should include both strength training and cardiovascular fitness.

For runners there are two important things that they need to remember: first, they need to use a good running technique and even consult an expert before going ahead with any type of running they might want to start; the second issue is shoes, as runners will need a good pair of shoes and if their legs are of different lengths they will need something called orthotics.

Treatment for injures of gluteus medius muscle include ice patches and anti-inflammatory medication as well as cortisone injections. Those who feel like their symptoms might be aggravated by a certain type of activity need to limit that activity and do more strengthening and stretching exercises to build their power.

Sports massage which is a type of deep tissue massage is also a great solution for those who experience pain or a limited range of motion as it will promote healing and will ease any type of discomfort a person may have after an injury. It is also a great way to warm up the muscle before strenuous exercise and it can even be a great way to make sure that a person with an old injury can alleviate some of the symptoms and prevent the condition from worsening with the passage of time.

A Sports Massage Gold Coast Can Offer For Infraspinatus Muscle Related Pain And Discomfort

Posted on by

The term “sports massage” does not really mean anything special. People who play sports tend to call this massage therapy “sports massage” as it’s almost essential for sports players. Sports massage is a synonym for deep tissue massage and it is obviously different from relaxation massage that just keeps rubbing the skin.

At the Pain Relief Massage Clinic on the Gold Coast, customers are not asked what type of massage they want. They are simply asked the purpose of their visit. From time to time, we see clients on the Gold Coast whose discomfort symptom originates from this infraspinatus muscle.

The infraspinatus muscle is located in the back of the shoulder blade as it extends outwards to attach the upper arm. Its main two functions are the stabilization of the joint located in the shoulder and the lateral rotation of the arm. Contracting this muscle will engage the rotation of the arm outwards, like for example when you move your hand to say goodbye.

When it comes to stabilizing the shoulder joint, the infraspinatus muscle contracts to keep the humerus from going out of its socket during the shoulder activity. Besides these two major roles, the infraspinatus muscle is also involved with other muscles in certain types of movement for common activities. For example it allows the lateral rotation of the arm along with the deltoid and the teres minor muscle.

Since this particular muscle is involved with common arm movement, a lot of people experience discomfort or even a great deal of pain that may involve it. There are three trigger points that are connected with the infraspinatus muscle and all make a triangle with the lower part of the muscle.

The pain that radiates from these particular muscles is usually debilitating and can go down from the shoulder joint along the upper arm. In some cases, the pain can be felt throughout the entire arm and hand. This usually happens when a person overuses this particular muscle or when they have a bad posture while working or during other prolonged physical activities.

For example, if someone has to keep their arm raised for a prolonged time or during activities that may involve this type of movement such as: baseball, football, working at the computer, driving, etc. Usually people who have overused these muscles will have certain symptoms that show the gravity of their injury.

The most common symptom is pain located in the front part of the shoulder; the pain usually feels like it is actually the joint which is injured and can be either mild or even extremely intensive in more serious injuries. Usually this type of pain goes hand in hand with a limited range of motion; in this case, the person is unable to reach with their hand behind their back. This is usually due to the stretching and rotating of the muscle, which ultimately leads to pain in this particular trigger point.

Along with this particular type of pain, those with an injured infraspinatus muscle might also feel pain during the night, especially if they sleep on their side. The weight of their body can press on the trigger points from their muscles and cause pain during sleep. In extreme cases people might end up sleeping in a sitting position due to the pain caused by any sleeping position.

Another common symptom when it comes to an injured infraspinatus muscle is the difficulty or even inability to lift the arm to the head and some people might even have issues with eating or brushing their hair. This can be quite debilitating as it interferes with day to day activities as pain will be triggered even with light activity.

Those who are training with weights might injure their muscle during their first sessions. Exercises like bench presses, lifting weights or military presses are quite difficult on the infraspinatus muscle. Another group of people affected by the infraspinatus muscle pain are baseball players, tennis players, football quarterbacks and basically any players that use their hands to play.

Some of them might also suffer from a condition called bicepital tendonitis that makes the biceps area tender. The infraspinatus trigger points are usually to blame for the pain caused in this particular condition so most patients with biceptal tendonitis usually undergo treatment for infraspinatus muscle pain.

Treatment for infraspinatus muscle pain and discomfort is usually simple as it involves a series of natural remedies such as sports massage and exercise. Patients usually undergo a few sessions of sports massage for the trigger points along with prescribed anti-inflammatory pills and mild analgesics. Some might even be advised to do yoga or other type of light exercise while avoiding any muscle strain due to posture. However, it is advised to avoid any intensive activity while the muscle heals.

Those who choose to undergo sports massage will usually see results immediately as the massage helps relieve the pain caused by the muscle’s trigger points. Sports massage can also be used as a single method to treat this particular condition and it is often preferred by patients who don’t want to take pain killers or undergo other types of chemical treatments.

In addition to sports massage, people can also limit their exposure to stressors and strenuous activity in order to avoid any flare ups. Another important aspect of sports massage is the fact that it also relieves pain and stress which can be detrimental to a person’s mental health during a challenging physical condition.

Sports Massage Helps Symptoms That Originate From Pectoralis Major Muscle

Posted on by

Pectoralis major is a muscle located at the chest area of the human body. Also known as the pectoral muscle, this particular area of the body is quite prone to injuries and strains. The muscle has the shape of thin triangle and it can be referred commonly as pecs. The exact location of the pectoralis major muscle can be described as the following: it starts from the anterior surface of the sternal, half of the clavicle and goes down to the sixth or seventh rib.

Right Pectoralis Major Muscle

Right Pectoralis Major Muscle

The muscle is engaged during forward swinging motions of the arm and it contracts in three different ways: the upper clavicular part is used for the flexion of the arm and shoulder, the lower part engages to depress the shoulder girdle and the full contraction which produces the adduction and rotation of the upper arm and shoulder as well as pulling the arm towards the body.

There are certain trigger points in the pectoralis major muscle that can produce a great deal of pain. The problem with the pain experienced by people is the fact that it is a very particular pain that can sometimes be associated with a heart attack or angina pectoris and people often panic about a severe underlying issue for their pain. The pain is usually experienced in the chest and the front of the shoulder; in fewer cases people can also experience it down the inside of the arm and on their elbow.

Clients who have activated their pectoralis major trigger points will usually experience various degrees of pain from a slight tingle in the muscle and arm to excruciating and debilitating pain. Except for the pain that is similar to cardiac arrest, there are several other types of pain that people might experience after an accident or injury involving their pectoralis major muscle. One type of pain that can be confusing is pain in the shoulder that goes down to the ring and pinky finger of the hand.

This type of pain radiates from the muscle and can cause a great deal of distress, especially for those who do manual work or work involving lifting heavy weights. Another type of pain, very common among those who have postural problems is a pain that radiates both from the mid back region and the shoulder along with breast and nipple sensitivity in some cases.

Other types of pain related to the pectoralis major muscle are: a feeling of constriction in the chest, intermittent pain that activates when using the upper arms, and, in some cases, an impaired lymphatic drainage that might cause swelling.

When it comes to posture, there are some postures that might activate the trigger points and those who are more prone to injuries and accidents usually adopt these postures either during workout or while sitting or walking. Head forward and round shoulders is risky and can cause a great deal of pain if it is adopted for a long term. If you like gym work and weight lifting, some people have accidents when they try to lift with their arms away from their body, positioned in the front.

Also, if you had an accident involving this particular muscle before, you should avoid postural distortion or any of the activities that may put a strain on it, because it can come back more severe than it was. A significant amount of people also experience pain in the pectoralis major muscle when they have panic attacks or are prone to stress; these two culprits can trigger pain within the muscle by flexing it in an unnatural position for long periods of time.

Those who do intense training and want to increase the size of their pectoralis major muscle for aesthetical reasons should remember a few postures that will help them develop a healthy look. Some exercises are better than the others and therapists recommend chin ups, front lateral pull downs, barbell pullover and cable crossover to be the best ways to enhance your pectoralis major muscle.

For pain relief of symptoms that come from pectoralis major muscles, people have a few options ranging from natural methods such as sports massage, yoga or light exercise to pain killers and even surgery if scar tissue has formed. When it comes to sports massage and exercise, just a few days a week can do wonders, especially for those who have bad posture.

People who are experiencing excruciating pain will see major improvement even from their first session of sports massage. Sports massage is a great way for athletes not only to prevent any injuries and accidents but also to make sure that they increase the strength of their muscle and also their endurance. Sports massage is also a good way to minimize the effects of soreness after high intensity trainings.

Sports Massage On The Gold Coast 2

Posted on by

This means that they can gain a lot from this procedure and it should be done for all athletes who want to have improved performance. This should be part of their normal activity at least a few times a week. If you are an athlete, instead of simply doing a lot of training or playing sports, you should think about doing a few sessions of massage because they can bring a lot of positive changes to your body.

Make sure that you find a professional sports massage therapist on the Gold Coast who can easily come up with a massage schedule for you according to your training and needs. Also, the sessions don’t have to be long if you don’t want that or if you simply don’t have the time; sports massage can be applied only on certain areas of the body for about 20-30 minutes.

A sports massage routine can be personalized according to the athlete who receives it. This means that the therapist talks with athletes and asks them what they would like to improve with the help of massage.

If the athlete simply wants to reduce muscle fatigue, a certain, less elaborate approach is chosen, however, if they want reduced muscle fatigue and also to increase their performance, the therapist should have a more complicated and planned approach. No matter what sport the athlete is doing; sports massage can help them increase their strength, stamina, and even speed.

Some might ask what sports massage is and how it works. First of all, sports massage is very much connected with specialties such as physiology and anatomy, especially the ones dealing with the muscular and skeletal system. If an athlete has a problem they are ignoring such as adhesions it can become chronic and hurt them in the long run.

Another problem they might have is tension that could accumulate in their muscles. If the massage is applied by a skilful professional it can be a very effective therapy and a great way to improve a person’s circulation, relax muscles and even correct certain muscle imbalances.

Of course, getting sports massage could be risky for some people, especially those who suffer from chronic diseases. For example, if you are feeling weak or you have a fever as well as recent trauma, sports massage is not a very good idea. The same goes for open wounds, rashes or tumours. If you suffer from a chronic condition you should always check with your medical doctor and see if it’s ok for you to try sports massage.

When it comes to sports massage, there are a few types of approaches your therapist can use depending on your problem. These are characterized by certain strokes that can be used such as effleurage, petrissage or friction.

Effleurage can be defined as a series of stroking movements that are performed with the whole palm and the fingers. The therapist applies pressure in a certain rhythm and builds up the pressure and stretching as they go. It is a very relaxing and very effective procedure.

Petrissage is a sort of kneading technique that is used to stretch the muscle, relax it and mobilize fluids. It goes very deep within the muscle and works well on the fibres. The massage done with this technique will be very deep and very thorough.

Lastly, the friction is used for massage that is meant to break down lesions and even separate muscle fibres. It is used for those who have scar tissue accumulated from recent injuries. This technique is especially used for athletes who are recovering after a certain injury or issue.

Other sports massage methods include vibration, shaking and even compression, all used depending on the aim of the therapist.

Sports massage can be performed before exercising, afterwards or during recovery. Some techniques are used as a warm up so that they increase the blood flow of the athlete while others will aid in the patients recovery and even increase flexibility or improve strength. Of course, your massage therapist knows best when it comes to the type of massage they need to perform and you are advised to try more than one approach and see which one works for you.

Also the time your body needs to gain the benefits of a sports massage can be different from other athletes so you need to create a program that works best for you. Even if you don’t want to increase your performance, sometimes pre-event massage can do a great deal for an athlete so you can at least try it a few times.

So, if you are an athlete on the Gold Coast and you want to benefit from this amazing therapy, you can try a sports massage Gold Coast has to offer as a natural performance enhancer and a great way to help your recovery after each difficult training session or event.
