Can you thread a needle?Everyday wellbeing from GHM

With the buzz of Hyrox Glasgow in the air, or even just the usual hustle and bustle of city life, it's easy to forget to take a moment for yourself. At Glasgow Holistic Massage, we believe in the power of self-care, whether you're recovering from a big event or simply needing to unwind. So, let's talk about some simple ways to keep your body feeling balanced and flexible, and how a relaxing massage can be the perfect complement.

Hyrox Recovery & Everyday Relaxation:

If you're gearing up for Hyrox, or if you've already conquered it, your body deserves some TLC. My availability is limited around the Hyrox weekend, so if you're looking to book a much-needed relaxation session, I'd recommend grabbing a slot soon. And if you weren't apart of hyrox, the stresses of everyday life in Glasgow are reason enough to treat yourself.

My Go-To Mobility Stretches:

To keep my own body feeling great, I've been doing these two simple mobility stretches daily for the past month. They're gentle yet effective, perfect for anyone looking to improve flexibility and release tension:

  • Thread the Needle Stretch:

    • This is brilliant for releasing tension in your upper back and shoulders, especially if you spend a lot of time at a desk or have been pushing hard with training.

  • Lying Cross-Over Stretch:

    • Perfect for easing tightness in your lower back and hips, ideal for those long walks around Glasgow or after a tough workout.

More Than Just Stretches: The Benefits of Holistic Massage:

While these stretches are a great way to maintain flexibility, a holistic massage can take your relaxation and recovery to the next level. It can help to:

  • Reduce muscle tension and pain.

  • Improve circulation.

  • Promote relaxation and reduce stress.

  • Enhance overall well-being.
