🔥Quick Relief for Prolonged Desk-Sitting🔥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍Have you been sitting 👨‍💻 in front of your screens and devices more than usual as a result of recent circumstances? 📱💻🖥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍Poor sitting posture is one of the most common causes of back and neck pain. When you sit for long periods of time, the body tends to round forward, making your posterior neck and back muscles work extra hard to maintain an upright position. This also causes the muscles in the anterior neck/upper torso to become shortened and tight/weak.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍This position also causes your diaphragm to be placed in a suboptimal position, which negatively affects your breathing mechanics. As a result, your accessory muscles become more active in helping you breathe, which can cause your neck and shoulders to feel tense and strained over time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍The Brugger’s relief position is designed to help reverse the tendencies of a slumped/slouch posture, and helps to give better lumbar support to your upper back and neck. This can be performed every 20-30 minutes of sitting, or when you start to feel stiff/sore.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍Steps :
1.Sit on the edge of your chair 🪑
2.Hold your head up high, as if a string is pulling you towards the sky
3.Spread your legs slightly to the sides
4.Turn your legs out slightly
5.Rest weight on legs and feet, and relax abdominal muscles
6.Tilt pelvis forward and raise your breastbone up
7.Turn your hands, palms-up
8.Turn your arms slightly outwards
9.Hold this position with deep “belly” breaths for 10 seconds.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍I recommend doing this every 20-30 minutes of prolonged sitting. This will definitely help to reduce muscle tension, improve your breathing, as well as improving overall posture when this is performed regularly.

Trigger Point Therapy 💆🏼‍♂️💆‍♀️ - What the hell is going on?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s been a lot of flack towards manual therapy on social media nowadays, 🗣despite plenty of evidence that shows its efficacy as part of an overall treatment plan. Regardless of whether we know what is “really going on” at the cellular level, it’s without a doubt that you can see improvements in function and performance as a result of manual therapy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Regarding trigger point therapy, there have been several theories of what happens when you release a trigger point, or “knots in your muscles.” Trigger points/knots are basically small sore spots in your muscle that are associated with soreness/stiffness.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅One popular theory is that these small trigger points, due to being in spasm, cause decreased circulation by pinching on local capillaries around the muscle tissue. These trigger points are also part of the muscles that are actively working harder, thus releasing more metabolic waste locally around the muscle, which could cause pain and soreness.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅Another theory is that these “trigger points” aren’t actually in the muscles. Some scientists believe that it is a purely neurological 🧠 and sensory issue. This school of thought basically believes that trigger point therapy isn’t actually changing the orientation of the muscle whatsoever, and that you are merely causing neurological and sensory changes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Regardless of which theory is true, the results are usually the same: Manual therapy and trigger point therapy leads to more functional and happier muscle, and better overall outcomes as part of a comprehensive treatment/conditioning plan.

As the ramifications of the coronavirus hitting the U.S. continue to develop, it’s imperative that the general public be well informed to take the proper steps to prevent catching COVID-19. It really hit home (literally) when the first case in Manhattan was confirmed just a few days ago.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are some of the suggestions as suggested by Dr. James Robb, an American pathologist and molecular virologist who was one of the early researchers of the coronavirus, as well as determining how many genes 🧬 the virus had.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1)NO HANDSHAKING 🤝🚫! Use a fist bump👊, slight bow, elbow bump, etc.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2)Use ONLY your knuckle to touch light switches, elevator buttons, etc. Lift the gasoline dispenser with a paper towel or use a disposable glove.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3)Open doors🚪with your closed fist or hip - don’t grasp the handle with your hand, unless there is no other way to open the door. ESPECIALLY important on bathroom and commercial doors.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4)Use disinfectant wipes at the store when they are available, including wiping the handle and child seat grocery carts.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5)Wash your hands with soap 🧼for 10-20 seconds and/or use a 60% or greater alcohol-based hand sanitizer whenever you return home from ANY activity that involves locations where other people have been.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
6)Keep a bottle of sanitizer available at each of your home’s entrances, and one in your car.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
7)If possible, cough or sneeze 🗣into a disposable tissue and discard. Use your elbow only if you have to.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
8)Latex or nitrile disposable gloves can be considered for use when going shopping, using a gas pump, etc.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
9)Surgical masks are only useful in preventing you from TOUCHING your nose/mouth. They will not prevent the virus in a direct sneeze from getting into your nose/mouth.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
10)Zinc lozenges can be helpful to prevent the coronavirus from multiplying in your throat and nasopharynx.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
