LIFE GETS BUSY, and sooner or later it takes over! Between your attempt to maintain a healthy lifestyle and not forgetting to have some fun occasionally – it is all too easy to forget about yourself and your overall well-being. So, let’s dive into how pampering your body with regular massage sessions can provide you the boost you need to achieve your active lifestyle goals!
Massage therapy offers benefits to a range of people. It doesn’t matter whether you are a fitness fanatic, a full-time parent or working a nine-to-five – your body will thank you for taking the time to notice that aching neck or super tight quad muscles and giving them the right treatment. Of course, different massage therapies work effectively well for different lifestyles. So let’s break it down for you:
1. Sports Massage Therapy for Fitness Fanatics
Many people assume that a sports massage is only for professional sports-people, it’s not. Whether you are an athlete or a once-a-week jogger, warming up your body before a workout and massaging after your workout can reduce muscle tightness and boost recovery. Foam rollers are typically used in most pre- and post-workout routines to help facilitate stretching and maximize recovery. If you prefer foam rolling, you can take it up a notch with our portable and powerful uRoller X-Sports that has 5 speed PowerVibrate intensities and auto massage mode based on your preference. However, if you do not have sufficient floor space or too exhausted right after an intense workout, portable massagers like our uCozy X-Sports can provide additional muscle recovery support by kneading and stretching your sore muscles with warmth like a sports massage therapist all while you sit comfortably on your sofa catching up on Netflix.
2. Power-Tap & Gua Sha Massage Therapy for Full-Time Parents
runs or even standing in front of the stove whipping out your children’s favourite dishes can cause neck and back pain to flare up, leaving you sore or even worse, causing an injury. No matter who you are or what you do, untreated fatigue muscles can have a serious impact on your performance and quality of life. So getting a Gua Sha massage right after your daily activities will have you re-energized in a few minutes! Our thoughtfully-designed uPamper Mini 2 can provide you both a Power-tap massage of up to 1750 pulses per minute and a relaxing Gua Sha massage to enhance the effectiveness of tension and pain relief at the comfort of your own home.
