Kinesio-Tex Taping

 

 

Kinesio® Tex Tape treatments can help with a variety of things, including reducing pain and inflammation, enhancing performance, preventing injury, boosting healthy circulation, and helping the body’s natural healing process. In the treatment of any clinical condition, evaluation and assessment are essential. A thorough examination of your patient is required to achieve the desired results from a Kinesio Tex Tape application, as well as any other treatment. In some circumstances, curing one ailment may necessitate the treatment of multiple underlying issues.

At SKP Massage you can add-on Kinesio-Tex Taping as an Ad-on for $10. Kinesio-Tex Tape is used to improve joint alignment by affecting the muscles and fascia and can reduce poor function of a joint by influencing opposing muscle groups and joint mobility. Taking the time to fit tape to a specific issue, on different positions of the body, KT Tape application can also be done with a half hour of specific muscle therapy for $45.

Muscle of the Month

Pronator Teres

 

 

Golfer’s Elbow Pt. 1

Golfer’s Elbow, also known in the medical world as medial epicondylitis primarily includes Pronator Teres and Flexor Carpi Radialis.

This month’s muscle is Pronator Teres. As it is a double headed muscle, it has two originating points. The first being on the humeral head, just above, or superiorly to the medial epicondyle of the humerus. The second head or ulnar head, originates at the medial side of the coronoid process of the ulna. Both of these heads meet at an acute angle and proceed down the arm to insert onto the radial bone. Innervated by the medial nerve, this muscle pronates or turns the forearm, so the hand faces posteriorly.

5 Benefits of Massage

 

 

Benefit #3 – Stress Relief

 

 

Stress is all too common in today’s fast-paced workplace, and it can have a severe impact on one’s health and well-being. Massage treatment has been proved to be a successful method of reducing stress on both a physical and psychological level. While massage therapists have firsthand experience with the stress relieving qualities of massage, science backs up our instincts.

There was a substantial drop in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure in a research on the efficacy of trigger point therapy. In controlled investigations, oxygen consumption, blood pressure, and salivary cortisol levels all decreased after a 10 to 15 minute chair massage.

Massage is more than just “relaxing” it can improve your health drastically.
