Chest Problems....
* many people suffering from respiratory
conditions also experience the above
symptoms due to:-
* weight lifting / training
* pain on movement
* painful on deep inspiration
* painful when coughing
* tender to the intercostal muscles on
palpation
* the muscles of the chest are often
dismissed and not thought about when
thinking of stretching. Sports massage
techniques applied to the intercostal
muscles and the diaphragm enables them
to relax and allows better and fuller lung
expansion, thus increasing respiratory performance and oxygenisation
‘ALL SYMPTOMS OF THE CHEST MUST BE MEDICALLY ASSESSED AND CLEARED FIRST PRIOR TO ANY TREATMENTS ‘
