The
pursuit of excellence in sports achievement is the driving force
behind muscle strains or repetitive injuries. How frustrating to
have to stop playing while waiting for overworked muscles to heal!
Golfers
and pitchers must keep their arms in top condition since pain or
muscle strain can mean the difference between championship or defeat.
An athlete's arm muscles may appear strong and resilient, yet be
vulnerable to injury from repetitive exertion.
The nervous
system maintains the muscles in a state of contraction in readiness
for action. The interdependence between the vascular system and
the effective function of the arm's muscles and nerves is well-established.
This massage technique capitalizes on this connection in order to
improve extremity function.
Vascular
arm massage restores proper blood circulation and corrects nerve
blockage throughout the arm. It can increase endurance, prevent
injury, alleviate pain, and increase arm strength.
