Runners Preparation for Marathon

Patient X attended my clinic for treatment, “Preparation Marathon for 2017.”

Week 1

Starting with full assessment of the muscular skeletal condition, then into preparation treatment with the use of Sports Massage Neuro Muscular Technics and Bioneuro Therapy Treatment.

Working on the feet aiding the motor neuron /nerve messengers to have greater ability of nerve function and blood flow to the feet.

This will open up nerve function and blood flow to all lower extremity muscles helping the muscles to function better.

Moving onto massaging the legs and Achilles Tendon area ,  applying  Neuromuscular Techniques combined with massage worked to deal aided the welfare of the calf area.

With a knee pathology present the use of MET’S (Muscle Energy Techniques ) to release shortened hamstrings from Weight Training session.

Whilst treating Patient x’s legs the Bioneuro Sigma Q was also applied to the Lower Back, this helped relieve those shortened/hyper-tonic muscles  from the (Dead lift weight training session ).

Massage and manipulation followed, Patient X felt rejuvenated ready for the next stage of training leaving  feeling  fitter, injury free and stronger to achieve the goal of that marathon next year ! .

Whilst treating Patient x’s legs the Bioneuro Sigma Q was also applied to the Lower Back, this helped relieve those shortened/hyper-tonic muscles from the (Dead lift weight training session ).

Report from Patient X

“Normally DOMS is quite prevalent on a Saturday after Thursday dead lifts. Not today though.  Hamstrings and lower back weren’t as tight as usual and my run this morning was much easier thanks to yesterday’s session.  

Good cool down after too so hopefully I won’t stiffen up later today. Ran my planned 10 miles at a steady pace fitting in the local Park Run midway through for good measure.  Knee was its usual aching niggle but that’s nothing new is it?

All in all it was made easier thanks to your treatment yesterday. Thank you.

Patient X”

This Weeks Tip from Get Fit Stay Fit Norfolk for Runners

“Running of any type calls for continues numerous  muscle actions . The greater the drawing together of these muscle groups the velocity generation from this action will create hyper-tonic muscles . All muscles in the body “Pull” and decreased circulation can be the result . Massage combined with Neuromuscular Therapy and Bioneuro Sigma Q  will enhance the runners general well being ,aid restoration and training ability.
