Why Get A Massage
Just like our bikes, we need maintenance and getting regular massages is crucial to being able to cycle our bikes. If you’re starting to feel a little pain in perhaps your knees, shoulders or low back DO NOT ignore it. If you suffer from some of the below matters, see a massage therapist.
Common Pain Areas
Low Back Pain: The root of lower back pain for cyclists is not found in your lower back; it’s in your hip flexors! This muscle group attaches to the front side of your lumbar vertebrae and your hip and when they’re tight, they pull on your lower back causing a deep aching pain. Getting this area treated regularly will not only make your rides more enjoyable, but improve your ability to enjoy other aspects of your life.
Knee Pain: Cycling is supposed to be the knee-friendly sport, right? Well, if your seat isn’t positioned properly you will most definitely run into knee problems. Make sure you’ve been professionally fitted for your bike. If you have pain, see a massage therapist.
Tingling in your Hands and Fingers: There can be many reasons for this. First of all, think about how you are positioned on your bike – how hard your holding onto the handle bar. Getting regular massages will lessen the tingling sensations, making your ride more comfortable.
Neck and Shoulder Pain: The cause for this is plain and simple. Your shoulders are rounded as you look up to see what is ahead of you. All of the muscles attached to your neck and shoulders tighten over time. So, the moment you get off your bike stretch your neck in all directions carefully and see your massage therapist. You need to keep these muscles loose so you don’t end up suffering chronic headaches.
These are just a few common injuries – there are many more. Don’t put up with pain. Take care of your body and book a massage .
