Injury Will Prevent The Fluid Golf Swing.

You can’t do a thing if you’ve not got that swing. Sounds like words from an old song, but believe me having treated quite a few Golfers these are words I hear quite a lot,when that injury occurs, you won’t have that Swing.

Lets face it folks when it comes to Golf it is all about the swing, and the follow through and if you can’t do that then you are not playing Golf, at least not how you should be. to develop a good fluid swing being physically relaxed, more supple makes a better functional swing, from the back swing to the follow through .Speed comes from the more relaxed posture.

First of all you need to get the basics right it makes a fundamental difference, did you know that a move, that is wrong in the first place will always be wrong. When you learn to play your muscles adjust accordingly so if you have been taught the positions right it will follow that your body will adapt accordingly. the same applies if you learn the wrong move’s from bad positioning . those same muscles movements will be repeated again and again, breaking a bad habits in position is harder to do than you would think so start right, then improve.

You have to Set up right, to do this you must , to be able to develop a solid swing technique to do this you must be able to move your body freely and for your body to move as freely as possible.

Poor flexibility is a key risk factor for a golf injury

You have to start with balance, for balance you need to have good support from your core muscles i.e. your transverse abdominals. Your weight should be in the middles of your feet this balance is essential, this is when your glutes and hamstrings come in to their own, and you need this balance both left to right and back to front.

You need to be able to Push your hips back, angle your spine toward the ball and flex your knees, if you have good posture it helps with balance and stability. I am not going to tell you how to make each move you need to be learning that from a Professional player, most clubs have one or two who for a fee and it is worth it will get you training on the right road. There are also lots of videos out there to help.

Another injury problem for Golf players are injuries due to over use of muscles , yes you need to practice and it can be additive, but you need to have time out to rest, unless you are a professional player, you are likely to also have a full time job and Golf is your hobby, your interest, your sport of choice , so you will have to be able to do your normal job as well as having time for Golf. Don’t let your hobby takeover your job, it needs to be fun and something you look forward too, it needs to be something you enjoy not a chore and certainly not a pain in any shape or form , Golf is great exercise far from being a passive sport, that does not require any real degree of fitness. Golf incorporates cardiovascular exercise, strength training, and even balance and coordination. You may no realise this, but Golf even helps in the prevention of brain degradation, which can result in loss of memory . Golfing forces you to remember, to use your brain more to remember plays, numbers, images, even specific techniques and tip . Therefore you are in a win, win situation , it is a great all-around way to exercise both body and mind.

Golf uses a number of different muscles throughout the body, from your neck, shoulders hips knees down to your feet and to be at your best and vital to help you execute that winning golf driver swing you have to keep them supple.

This is where Regular Massage, can be of great benefit . And adding to your training regime By using

Hamstring Injury Treatment In Norwich, When You Need Help Fast.

Jonathan came to us with very tight Hamstrings, as someone who plays a lot of Rugby, he needed this to be dealt with quickly, leaving it and waiting for it to recover on its own was not an option.

Hamstring Injury can cause further Muscular Issues in the Body.

Jonathan’s Testimonial

Thank you for the treatment I received last week on my hamstrings. Since starting back, pre season rugby training my hamstrings have really suffered. So I thought it best to get some help, I have had treatment from Steve Kirby of Getfitstayfit Norfolk for other injuries I have suffered, but decided I needed to be on top off this from the beginning.

Steve used Bioneuro therapy system Sigma Q(ΣQ)® which really got deep into the affected area marking a huge and lasting difference.

Then using Sports and Neuromuscular Injury Techniques treatment on the Hydrotherm Massage bed, was a great way to finish the treatment. The warm bed is fantastic, making me feel very relaxed and comfortable.

All together the whole treatment was great.

Many thanks

and I look forward to future treatments that I may need

Regards

Large Items to Move Getfitstayfit Norfolk Say’s GET HELP DO NOT MOVE IT BY YOUR SELF

I was born with scoliosis and had a Spinal Fusion at three years old. The operation worked very well up until the age of around 20 when I started to notice lower back pain. This increased over the years leaving me struggling with chronic pain. I tried various things like epidural and nerve root injections but nothing seemed to work. In June 2016 I underwent surgery to correct the curve in my spine, taking a piece out and replacing it with a metal cage as well as two metal rods either side for support. Unfortunately during the operation The surgeon caught my spinal cord leaving me in Spinal Shock and temporally paralysed from the waist down, but within days I started being able to move my legs very slightly but I was unable to move my toes or my feet.

A client, came to us in so much PAIN her back was injured when she tried to move a Sofa BY HERSELF

Large items to move GET HELP. if it is a big item to move, Do Not do it by yourself !!!!

Lot’s of folks have done this , tried to move a sofa or a bed by themselves and the next thing , they have hurt their Back badly.

Folks there is so much damage you can do by trying to move things that are frankly just to heavy for one person, you have to stop and think of yourself and the consequences.

Thankfully for this client , a lovely lady we were able to get her Back problems dealt with very quickly, using the Bioneuro Sigma Q and The Hydrothem Massage System, for others, they are not so fortunate.

Here is her message to us after she had been on a visit to family, after treatment with us.

Just a quick bulletin to let you know that the back is so much better now and also that I am making sure I don’t lose any more battles with heavy sofa’s!

It was so good to go and visit the grandchildren which I am sure I would not have been able to do without your fantastic care and assistance. Travelling 200 miles was a daunting thought but in the end was no problem at all. Thank you for all your kindness and help in enabling me to get back on my feet so quickly.

Sprained Calf! Muscle Injury in Norwich, Full Recovery with Getfitstayfit Norfolk

Stuy is a client, that has always worked his body hard and expected a great deal from it, he has also always looked after his body and is extremely fit, he still is, but a quite severe unexpected injury took it’s toll and created a problem that he knew he had to deal with. This is a recent email we received from him.

Hi Steve.

Well its been a few months since I saw you, with my nightmare Sprained Calf!

I was having a terrible start to the year missing 4 events due to injuries, and I had totally lost my motivation and was feeling very down and negative.

And the from the 1st moment I met you, you inspired my confidence that everything was going to be ok again, when you said. “We WILL Re-build you!” lol

I must admit I was a bit nervous putting my feet into a bucket of water with electrodes in, but again you made me feel at ease, it was a strange sensation as the current worked its way and magic up from my toes. No pain, but could really feel it pushing my heels up, working the damaged muscles.

After the sessions where complete you had not only repaired the Physical, but just as important I was mentally ready, I was “buzzing” ready to take it slowly and get back on track.

I have competed in 3 Triathlons, and feeling great, the injury has totally gone and no problems.

I recently swam 4500m in open water, and have entered a half Iron-man for the end of September.

So onwards and upwards, I have my inspiration back and just want to keep growing & improving.

Thanks again Steve for the helping me Get fit and STAY fit!

Cheers

This is the email he sent me after treatment

Good Evening Steve

May I first thank you for arranging an appointment to see me so quickly.

I can highly recommend the Bioneuro sigma Q and Hydrotherm massage treatment and am very grateful for your assistance.

I will contact you again after next Sunday with an update.

Ski Injury Recovery And Rehabilitation In Norwich

I was reminded by one of my clients that it was, Skiing time.

With all the rain we have had and the mildness of the weather it had not occurred to me,

but now with I feel it is time to talk to folks about Skiing Injuries

like any other sporting injury they can vary, but lets face it broken arms legs seem to be the usual suspects, as for your muscle’s, strains and sprains are very prominent , lets not forget you are in cold conditions, so if muscles don’t have time to warm up they will pull and more than likely to tear.

Although sometimes disasters happen like the incident that has affected Michael Schumacher, these are rare these days and we are thankful he is in a stable condition, also the German Chancellor Angela Merkel has injured her pelvis on a cross-country skiing trip during her Christmas vacation although she is still working, but is now having to cancel some of her engagements.

I deal with recovery and rehabilitation of injuries, Sprains, Strains and recovery after all broken bones are a regular occurrence and in all my years in business, I have had to deal with quite a few, dealing with them using Neuromuscular Injury Techniques, massage on the and with The Bioneuro Therapy System Sigma Q (ΣQ®)

We all know that prevention is better that cure and preparation is always better, unless you are to prepared to fail.

It is the same with suppleness and conditioning , if you have regular massage, you muscles are more supple and flexible therefore they will allow you to become more flexible, less prone to injury, no matter what sport or exercise you do.

Ice, snow are unstable surfaces, so it is more important that you counteract that with stability in your body.

Here are some of the Common injuries, and how it may be possible to avoid them.

Skier’s thumb. ( A nice name for also known as Gamekeepers Thumb)

This is a upper extremity injury, affecting the stabilizing ligaments on the sides of the thumb joints – usually the inside or ulnar collateral ligament (UCL).

How does it happen

It often occurs when a skier falls and they do not release the ski pole, causing over-bending and stressing of the thumb. The first thing is the pain, you will feel it, do not ignore this it is a signal to see a Doctor or therapist , It could be a partial tear of the ligament, possibly treated with a splint; a Therapist would be able to advise you because if it is a complete tear it will need surgery, you will need to see a therapist for rehabilitation work after surgery to get you back on track.

Tips on prevention of this injury

Your reaction is to hold on to the Ski pole, Don’t you have to let go of your ski poles the moment you fall. There are certain poles because of the type of handles, as a beginner you should avoid talk to the Ski shop advisers for information on this to help decrease risk

Knee injuries

As I said the main problem, 40% of all skiing injuries, are either ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) or MCL (Medial Collateral Ligament) sprains or tears of these ligament and muscle groups, being the most common.

How does it happen

Knee injuries usually occur as the result of the something Skiers call the Snow Plough Position, ( Imagine you are doing a squat with your knees to far forward, past your toes, your body is not stable and the most extreme point is your knees), so when a skier is falling in this position they will hit the knee joint with excessive force. Another injury caused to the knees, can be because of Skis crossing or stance widening too far . Again, we may be looking at splinting as it may resolve the injury, but again there is a possibility of more ruptures occurring, you may require surgery. Therapy will defiantly be needed after this and the sooner the better, early intervention, will defiantly speed up recovery.

Tip on prevention of this injury

The best prevention here is pre-conditioning of your quads, Massage and the correct sort of workout building steadily, should help considerably. Proper maintenances is so important. Avoid an overly-wide stance, and if you do start to fall, don’t resist, go with it. ( one other tip is why not go to a Jujitsu class and ask for a few lessons in learning how to fall you will be in a safe environment with guys who specialise in that sort of teaching )

Head injury

As with any head injury it is a must that you get it checked out Straight away DO NOT leave it under any circumstances.

Tip on prevention of this injury

I will pull no punches here. These can be fatal when skiing at high speeds. So it is important that helmets are worn they are vital protection, you may find your self in a situation of travelling down the slope 2-3 times faster than the recommended range, for even the best helmet protection, so if your new to the sport please stay in the designated areas advised and listen to your instructors.

There is no if’s or maybes about this one, You should always wear a helmet, you should also monitor your speed to stay within a safe zones. Also, be aware of others around you and your surroundings, use your common sense to avoid collisions, remember you are on a slope of a mountain, there will be people above you so look uphill as well as down, and give way when you need to as they may not be able too , Always follow directions on the signs it could well save your life.

Neck and Shoulder Injury

These can occur from a sudden fall, damage may be to the Clavicle or Scapular also injury to the Humerus because of impact due to the fall, these injuries seem to be more prevalent with Snowboarders, than Skiers. In this case it may be a hospital trip to put things back in order, you may also have damage to muscle groups from the Trapezius, Rotator Cuff muscles, to Rhomboids if these muscles are tight, this can be the case especially if you are in a sedentary working environment and not use to a rigorous activity, then these muscles are suddenly having to do a lot of stretching and work.

Tip on prevention of this injury

Try to stay flexible with shoulder and neck muscles, lots of exercises you can do keep supple, massage can be essential for these muscles, as we do seem to not use them as much as we should. When you feel tired, relax these muscles and a hot soak in the bath or a session in a steam room can always be good for them.

If you are New to skiing some quick tips to help:

1. Don’t overdo it, trying to impress your friends, we all need to start out somewhere and if you want to continue with the sport do it sensibly . Start out on easier terrain, improve your skills gradually take your time enjoy it, you are not in a race you are on a steep learning curve . Before you even start on the real thing , get in shape prepare those muscles, have proper training, try a dry slope.

2. There is a skier’s “code of conduct” – these are common-sense rules, you will see them posted on the slopes, don’t ignore them, They are for your benefit, your protection, and for the safety and of others, don’t become and injury statistic.

3. We have not mentioned the Ski lifts .You must Pay attention to them and others when getting on and off the lift, this can be a prime time for injury, and you don’t want that, on your first time out.

4.You have to take breaks. I know in the excitement you will want spend your Ski time challenging yourself . Injury rates do increase with fatigue, when you are tired you are not focused, pace your self , rest when you feel you need to take it sensibly and steady , as with any exercise you will need to stay hydrated so you still need to drink plenty of water.

5. Learn to take the fall; Don’t fight it , as I have already stated fighting it is how ligaments get torn and damaged. Your bottom can is your best friend If you can, sit down to break the momentum Also this will naturally bring you down into a foetal shape. Tucking every thing in. Less area to damage.

6. Take lesson from a professional, that is what they are there for, to improve your technique you skill and to help you avoid any bad habits , don’t take short-cuts , they will not do you any favours .

If you do sustain an injury

You should see the doctor, don’t be a hero, whenever you sustain any type of injury. Skiing injuries should always be evaluated to avoid the possibility of long term damage, most can usually be treated without operative intervention and can be stabilized and treated by a therapist with excellent results.

Before you venture out on the slopes, get in shape!

Skiing will put heavy demand on some major muscle groups, so lets get them prepared. I will say this again regular massage is a preventative measurement as well as a recovery and rehabilitation measure.

Quadriceps are the main muscle group used for skiing; they maintain your stance and protect your knees. You need to get them in shape, try squats and remember your knees should not go over your toes.

Glutes & Hamstrings: These allow you to flex, forward into the leaning position needed for downhill skiing, it requires great strength and a lot of work from your hamstrings and glutes.

Thighs: Your inner thighs keep the skis together, while outer thighs are the main provider of stability and steering.

Calf muscles the Gastrocnemius and the Soleus. keep you upright over your bent knees. These are your power house you need to strengthen them.

Abs and Back: When Skiing you need to be in the proper flexed, bent position but this will put stress on your back. You need to strengthen your core stability to prevent spinal injury.

Arms: You need to be able to push-off with power and stability, so work on the shoulder joints, biceps and triceps need to be part of your preparation routine.

Look at the whole package and work it out with your trainer, don’t miss out the massage it is a must to keep all those muscles in top working order.

Treatment For A Painful Back In Norwich, Getfitstayfit Norfolk Says “We All Need Good Treatment”

One of my clients recently, told me that prior to coming to my clinic, she had been told.

“Everyone has back problems and you’ve just got to live with it”.

I believe that is a almost criminal comment. My question is why is this the case and why do we accept it.?

When someone has a Painful Back they should have treatment for it.

Pain comes in several different forms, from the dull nagging ,sharp and sudden, to the pain we have with Osteo and Rheumatoid Arthritis .

There are many reasons,but not dealing with muscular pathologies, surely is not the right way to go.

We should not just be expected to accept it and live with it. This is the field in which we work at Getfitstayfit Norfolk.

If a joint is out of out of alignment it will easily cause multiple issues, one being the lack of good blood supply, then concerns with the nervous system creating pain. Hyperirritable area’s in taut muscle are never a good thing.

Trigger points often appear, also known as trigger sites or muscle knots,( just for the record although called muscle knots a muscle can not knot as it has an origin and an insertion ) are described as hyperirritable spots sarcomeres in skeletal muscle that are associated with palpable nodules in taunt bands of muscle fibres

Research has improved considerably in the knowledge of what a Trigger Point Formation is, this is when a dysfunctional endplate occurs, commonly associated with a strain or the over building of muscle tissue that can then be damaged, stored calcium is realised at the site that creates a oxygen nutrient deficit.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is needed in order to remove the excessive calcium the problem is that ATP is decreased by the tightening of the tissue this then restricts the blood supply . The persistence’s of high calcium level resumes causing Acetylcholine (ACh), release creating a viscous cycle.

Why we can help You.!

The need is to stop the cycle. We specialise in Neuromuscular injury, with cutting edge equipment Neuromuscular Injury Techniques.

The equipment we us is the Bioneuro Therapy System Sigma Q (ΣQ®) designed to deal with, Trigger points, muscle injury and recovery.

It works into deep muscles and nerves which are difficult for a traditional massage therapist to manipulate to enable quicker recovery and “Pain Free Movement “

Piriformis Syndrome Suffered For 23 Years Restored To Fitness In A Few Weeks By Getfitstayfit Norfolk For This Norwich Lady

J came to our Clinic a couple of months ago, first time on meeting it was clear this was a lady who was so stressed, because she was in great pain, and felt that she had never been listened too about her injury, she needed help so Steve was determined to get to the root of the problem and sort it out.

“I started to get a sore hip about 23 years ago, it’s on set coincided with starting to drive. It hurt on and off for about 16 years, it was inconvenient at times, but not too bad. Then just over 7 years ago my whole lower back and hamstrings became very tight and sore pretty much all the time.

There were periods when my Piriformis muscle was so painful I could not stand still for more than 2 minutes.

Sometimes when my whole lower back would lock up so it would take about 5 minutes to bend myself into a chair and to straighten out again when I wanted to get up. The flare up’s were awful, my back used to take about 3 months to calm down.

When it was really bad, I certainly couldn’t do everyday things like bend down to look in a draw or pick something off the floor. The worse thing was I never knew what was going to set it off, I got so paranoid at trying to prevent a flare up I kept diaries to try and second guess what might aggravate it. I took a cushion everywhere with me as hard chairs were a big no no. It was a really miserable existence.

When I explained these limitations to my doctor, rather than being concerned that an otherwise very healthy 38 year old, that until recently used to play rugby and run regularly, was unable to bend over due to extreme muscle tightness and lower back pain, she suggested that I stop trying to bend down! That was it, that was all she had to offer. Oh, that and some drugs to dull the pain.

Eventually I left the job I loved so that I could work part time as I thought sitting at a desk all week might have been part of the problem. It didn’t really make much difference.

Over the years I have seen all manner of back people, chiropractors, physios, osteopaths, sports masseurs, occupational health specialists, you name it, I just wish they were on performance related pay because none of them managed to make much of a difference and I have spent a fortune. It wasn’t just the odd appointment either, I saw one guy regularly at the Spire hospital for over a year.

I think it would be fair to say most of them just wanted to know which bit hurt at the time and they would then work on that area. No one seemed interested in the underlying problem i.e. the cause of my tight leg and back muscles that I knew was causing all the problems.

I asked many times, believe me, I just never got an answer.

Then during the summer holidays this year, after struggling to walk the half mile to the local park with my sons so they could practice a bit of rugby, I decided enough was enough.

At the time it was my Piriformis muscle that was really bad so I Googled ‘Piriformis/Norfolk’ (as not all specialists even believe in Piriformis syndrome, let alone know what to do with it) and Steve’s details were top of the search list. Piriformis Syndrome

Steve agreed to fit me in that night at his home clinic. Rather than doing the usual massage on the area that I was used to from other physios, he put my feet in a bucket of water and then connected me to the mains. To be honest I thought at best he was a bit eccentric and at worst he was going to kill me. I was actually quite disheartened. After reading his web site earlier, I had felt more positive about seeing Steve than I had most of the other specialists I had seen over the years. It was that old cliché of ‘could he be the one?’

I was clinging on for Hope.

After the appointment, I didn’t feel much better and was feeling really down, but the next morning I woke up and I just knew something was different. Not just better, but different. I have been seeing Steve for about two months now and for the first time in 23 years I feel nearly normal and I know he is going to make me pain free. When Steve first started treating me he promised he would make me pain free and although that promised cheered me up no end, I didn’t really believe him. Not deep down.

Steve’s view is that if a back hurts, there is a problem that needs fixing. Find the source of the problem and fix it – for good.

So many so called professionals have told me to expect to have back pain, that everyone has back pain, that it’s normal. To get on with it, to accept it, to live with it, accommodate it.

And the really sad thing is, I was actually starting to listen to them! I gave up a job I loved and was bracing myself for an old age blighted by a back that was surely only going to get worse.

Well now I feel fantastic. I have got a new job – full time again – I feel like I did when I was 20. I feel so ‘normal’ I still can’t believe it. It’s been so long I can hardly remember what normal is.

Every time I bend down to get something out of a cupboard, I notice that I don’t hurt or have to do the task by kneeling on the floor. Every morning when I first get out of bed and don’t have to walk to the bathroom semi bent because I can’t straighten up for a while, I notice it. I think I will be noticing it for a long time.

Steve is amazing. He uses his ‘fizzy’ machine to sort you out. It really works miracles. And it feels fab, bit like a spa session!

Deborah takes her Running Seriously, when she was in Pain she came to Getfitstayfit Norfolk for Help

This is her Testimony, she had been suffering for a year before she came to Getfitstayfit Norfolk. We always say early intervention is the best way to aid recovery, the longer it is delayed the longer it takes to recover, we try to improve recovery rate and get people back to fitness as soon as possible.

“I came to Steve after recommendations from members of my running club.

I’d recently been suffering with knee pain but also low back pain upon waking in the morning for over a year.

I’d seen a chiropractor, a physio, an osteopath and even had an MRI scan all to no avail. In the end my doctor just said it’s muscular and prescribed me Amitriptyline!

Steve was great. He identified my IT band and TFL muscle were tight and used the Bioneuro System Sigma Q(ΣQ® to free them off. It was a strangely pleasant sensation and the muscles felt a lot looser after. Alas, my symptoms didn’t go away, but Steve was determined to solve my problems. He’s like a dog with a bone!

He was regularly in touch to see how things were going and he researched my symptoms to try and find the answer. Eventually he suggested using the Bioneuro System Sigma Q(ΣQ® on my Psoas muscle.

Running and sitting at a desk all day had made this short and tight and can be responsible for low back pain. I am delighted to say I can now sleep free from pain, without the need for pillows under my legs and without the Amitriptyline! As for the knee pain, it’s getting better with postural and running form correction’

I’d recommend to anyone suffering with muscular issues to seek out Steve. He really can help, he doesn’t give up on you even when you feel you want to give up he made such a difference“

Hannah is a lovely lady, but my first meeting with her was quite upsetting, she could not stand or walk with out aid she was in so much pain, her husband was doing his best for her, but with four children they needed help, I was so glad I was able to be the person to help them. She had suffered with PSD during and after her pregnancies, that had left her with Pelvic and Back Issues.

Here is her Story.

After having four children quite close together, the pressure of pregnancy and birth had weakened my lower back and unfortunately led to a severe prolapsed disc. I thought labour had been painful, but the pain I was experiencing with my back was on a par!

A friend had recommended Steve to me and as I could barely walk, and only then with assistance, Steve very kindly came out to my home. I had several treatments with Steve and each time I made noticeable improvement, both in pain relief and mobility.

It was only after a few treatments with Steve that I had my MRI which confirmed a L4-L5 prolapsed disc. I was told in my orthopaedic assessment that it was severe enough to warrant surgery as I was suffering with sciatica and trouble with my waterworks as a result. However, by the time I met with the surgeon to discuss the operation I was told the operation was no longer necessary due to my massive improvement, I no longer had sciatica and my mobility and pain had reduced significantly.

The surgeon asked what treatment I had been undergoing and I told him about Steve and The Bioneuro Therapy System Sigma Q (ΣQ®). He had never heard of it, but said to keep at it because it was obviously working!

“I can’t thank Steve and Jacqui enough, they were an answer to prayer. I was in so much pain and the relief their Bioneuro Therapy System Sigma Q (ΣQ®) treatment they gave me was remarkable. They were both so kind and encouraging along the way, I didn’t just feel like I was a patient, but a friend. Thank you!”
