Post-Event Sports Rehabilitative Full-Body Massage.
For some reason, massage therapists that specialize in treatments of sport related injuries are calling this method ?sport massage. In my opinion, if someone sprains/strains the lower back, upper back, shoulder, knee, etc., by playing sport or working at home, or at the workplace, the pathology that will be developed due to kind of injury disturbing orthopedic status. Utilization of massage in cases of back and limb disorders we call orthopedic massage. There is no doubt that there is huge room for orthopedic massage available in sport rehabilitative medicine. It is proven that orthopedic massage therapy is a very effective tool in treating sport-related, industrial injuries, as well as helping people experience less pain in cases of degenerative diseases of the support and movement systems such as osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease and other types of spondylosis. Really sport massage that is utilized only in industry of sport is a pre-event sport massage and post-event rehabilitative sport massage. These two types of massage therapy are very important efforts in order to improve the athletes performances, to prevent to a maximum extent, sport related injuries, as well as to eliminate side effects of exercise stress/overtraining. 20 years ago, training in sport massage was limited to massage therapists who worked with professional teams, Olympian teams, etc. Nowadays, sport massage has value not only for professional athletes, but also for the modern fitness enthusiast. If you will pay attention to the behavior of today's gym members, you will see people who are working out as if they are preparing themselves for competition. It is obvious that most of them are pushing themselves to the limit. In most cases, people don't or forget to ask themselves, ?Why am I in the gym? If you will ask them this question, no doubt their answer will be ?to keep (themselves) in shape and to contribute to (their) health. But the manner of working out like a professional athlete in the long run causes more harm than good. What a lot of people do not realize is that professional sport-like training is not contributing to health. Professional sports actually is a tough rough show business and nothing else. I personally don't believe that we are capable of changing the minds of gym enthusiasts that vigorous exercise (which most gym enthusiasts are engaging in) is not a good idea. But there is no doubt that post-event rehabilitative sport massage can be of tremendous help to the health of these gym enthusiasts. The post-event rehabilitative sport massage that I offering to you today was initially developed and proposed by professor Alexander Dembo, MD, PhD, former Leningrad, now Peterburg School of Medicine in 1964.
