Athletes

  • Percussion Therapy

Percussion therapy involves the use of a motorized massage gun to relax tight muscles, flush metabolic waste, improve muscle elasticity, and boost circulation. It also triggers the release of feel-good endorphins, which can temporarily reduce muscle pain in the back or other area where the therapy is applied.

Percussion therapy is a popular back pain relief option for office workers, athletes, those recovering from a back injury or surgery, and aging adults.

  • Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of healing involving placing cups on the skin. The suction the cups provide helps increase blood flow to the area they’re placed, as well as loosen tight connective tissue and reduce swelling.

There are good reasons why cupping therapy is popular for those experiencing back pain. With increased circulation, it can speed up the healing recovery of muscle strain or other back-related injuries. It can also loosen knots, flush out toxins settling in muscle tissue, and break up scar tissue, which can ultimately aid with pain.

  • Mobility Stretching

Used as both a prevention and a reduction method for back pain, mobility stretching involves engaging in gentle stretches to improve muscle and joint movement, reduce muscle tension, and stimulate blood circulation.

Mobility stretching can also reduce back pain by improving posture, easing excess pressure placed on nerves and discs, and reducing the buildup of scar tissue. This makes this therapy applicable for those experiencing back pain due to a variety of causes from post-back surgery complications to structural abnormalities.

  • Blading

With gentle scraping using a specialized tool, blading therapy can provide back pain relief. This form of therapy can dissolve scar tissue, release tight muscles, improve the circulatory and lymphatic systems, and trigger the body’s natural healing response through the creation of microtraumas.

Blading has many common uses for back-related issues. For instance, it can be used to reduce stiffness in the spine, shoulder blade tightness, neck tension radiating to the upper back, and strain due to poor posture.

  • Localized Cryotherapy

This type of cryotherapy is designed to alleviate localized pain, which is applicable to those suffering from back pain. During a localized cryotherapy session, extremely cold temperature is applied to a certain area – in this case, the back – in effort to alleviate pain and promote healing.

Benefits of this type of wellness service for back pain include calmed inflammation, temporary numbness of overactive nerves, and improved blood circulation. It can also loosen stiff back muscles, relax muscle contractions, and speed up the recovery time of damaged tissue.
