Last week, both Natacha and I experienced one of the most brutal pulmonary infections we ever had.

Both of us exercise regularly and overall take care of our bodies, but we still had to go through some very tough time. I can't imagine what it would have been if we didn't take regular care of our bodies.

So my message for everyone today: take care of you, your mental health and your body. It pays dividends ❤

🌬️💪 Discover the Power of Breathing for Peak Athletic Performance! 🌬️💪

Ever wondered how the simple act of breathing can transform your sports performance? A recent study dives deep into diaphragmatic breathing and the physiological and psychological impacts of breathing patterns on athletes. Here’s what they found:

1️⃣ Slow Voluntary Breathing (VSB): Not just for yoga! Adopting slower breathing techniques can boost your cardiovascular fitness, slash stress levels, and enhance your mental well-being. This means better focus and concentration during both training and competitions.

2️⃣ Fast Voluntary Breathing (VFB): Common during intense workouts, but if it's involuntary post-training, watch out! It could lead to anxiety, dizziness, and even panic, detracting from your quality of life and performance.

👟 At Phila Massages, we specialize in sports massages that not only soothe and rejuvenate your muscles but also integrate breathing techniques to help you achieve your best performance yet.

🔍 The connection between breathing and performance is powerful, albeit complex. By embracing controlled breathing strategies and regular sports massage, you can enhance your athletic abilities and maintain peak condition.

A concussion can occur after a blow to the head or the body, causing the brain to move inside the head. Loss of consciousness only occurs about 10% of the time, other symptoms can be headache or nausea. If a concussion is suspected, the athlete should seek medical care immediately, as damage to the brain may have occurred.

Preventing concussions is best whenever possible, don’t forget to wear a helmet!

“We've known for decades that lactic acid has nothing to do with muscle soreness after exercise. […] remove "lactic acid" from your exercise vocabulary. Its supposed role in muscle soreness is a myth that's hung around far too long already.”

The main components of a healthy lifestyle and wellbeing are:
- Physical activity

Working on improving one of the components can help with the others, and small changes can have a big impact!

Are you working on any of these?

It's GameDay! Who are you rooting for?

We often see clients suffering from overwork injuries at Phila Massages. Sometimes it is important to slow down!

This article explains that running at a slower pace is helpful to build a base, while helping to prevent injuries and illness, and that slow running is beneficial and enjoyable for both new and experienced runners.

The Ideal Running Pace Is Slower Than You Might Think Runners are obsessed with time.

We might be in for an early spring, but there's plenty more weeks of winter ahead, which means plenty of time to plan for the upcoming season!
