Using A Muscle Roller And Simple Stretches To Address Muscle Involved With Golfer's Elbow
For those holiday shoppers with friends and family that love nothing more than being out on the green, the search is underway for the perfect gift.
James Cedar, founder of Functional Energy Academy, believes that his company's muscle roller stick is the perfect low-cost gift for the golf enthusiast. That is because he knows from his background in massage therapy that many golfers find themselves sidelined from their favorite activity because of elbow pain.
Elbow pain is a common problem for people between the ages of 30 and 50 who frequently perform repetitive or forceful movements with their forearms. It can also be caused by trauma to the tissues around the joint as well as physiological dysfunction.
Golfer's Elbow is the layman's term used to describe just one of numerous types of elbow pain that can affect people who play golf, and it often gets worse over time if not properly addressed.
Physical therapy, rest, ice, massage, stretching, and anti-inflammatory medication are usually enough to turn around mild cases of elbow pain. Surgery is performed on more complicated or advanced cases.
In addition to his background in massage therapy, James counts martial arts and Chinese Medicine as some of the influences that have informed his holistic approach to working with elbow pain in athletes like golfers. He advocates a preventative approach that entails self-massage, stretching, and proper body mechanics to keep people doing what they love well into the future.
Massage is often used to reduce pain and tension while increasing circulation and flexibility in muscles. Regular massage can have a significant impact on health and performance over time.
He says, "It's the little things we do each day that make the difference in our performance over the long-run. Properly warming up muscles and addressing stiffness, pain, and muscular imbalance by using a self-massage tool like a muscle roller before these issues become something more serious just makes sense when you look at the cost involved in time and money lost to recovery and repair once a person is injured. There's much less hardship involved in maintaining one's health than there is in trying to recover health once it's lost."
James has released a video demonstrating how to use a muscle roller massage tool for working with the muscle groups commonly associated with elbow pain. The video also demonstrates some simple stretches based on martial arts warm up movements.
