The QL supports good posture and helps stabilize your spine when you bend to the side or extend your lower back. Working some QL stretches into your fitness routine can improve flexibility in your back and relieve old aches and pains while helping prevent new ones

The way you breathe can impact your whole body, helping to regulate important functions such as heart rate and blood pressure. It can also reinforce proper body mechanics that put less stress on your body as you move.

Deep breathing is also called abdominal or belly breathing. It involves inhaling slowly and deeply through the nose, causing the lungs to fill with air as the belly expands.

This type of breathing is associated with many health benefits, from reducing stress to lowering blood pressure.

While these benefits are widely known, the busy pace of life plus a sedentary work environment have conditioned many of us to take only quick, shallow breaths. Over time, this weakens the strength of our respiratory muscles. It also creates tension in the upper body that can alter our posture and undermine our health.

If you’re a shallow breather, regular physical activity and brief sessions of respiratory muscle training can reverse these symptoms and help to improve your quality of life.

Is your handbag causing your pain?

If you’re experiencing shoulder, back, buttock, and arm pain or tingling in your hands — unhealthy handbag habits could be to blame.

Let’s look at some of the culprits and how you can avoid causing injury to your self.

Lightening your load is the best way to ensure that your muscles and shoulders stay healthy. Simply try and reduce the weight of your handbag to the point where you don’t feel any noticeable strain from carrying it.

Relief for Migraine & Tension Headaches

Sports Massage therapy has proven to be an effective measure for reducing both chronic migraines and tension headaches.

Research shows that sports massage can decrease pain, tension, duration, intensity, and frequency of headaches. Massage also eases the muscle tension in the neck, jaw, and shoulders, which can cause headaches in the first place.

Studies have shown that massage reduces the frequency of migraines and even reduced pain in the midst of an active migraine.
