Optimizing Exercise At Home
OPOVE M3 Pro Massage Gun

July 17, 2020 · 3 Comments

Regular exercise can be derailed by post-workout soreness. It’s difficult to maintain consistent exercise without post-workout muscle care. But most of us don’t have has access to regular massage therapy.  Whatever makes your muscles sore,  the OPOVE M3 Pro Massage Gun can help.
Opove M3 Pro Massage Gun comes with four attachment heads

WHY USE A MASSAGE GUN

Professional athletes and dancers get a regular therapeutic massage for faster muscle recovery. This enables daily strenuous exercise or practice. Some get massages to care for repetitive stress injuries from their job.

Even professional massage therapists use massage guns to treat certain problems. 

  • A massage gun reaches far deeper into the muscle groups than any pair of human hands could.
  • A massage gun relieves issues with the fascia
  • Reduced downtime: Massage gun massage offers rapid recovery so you can get back to doing the things you want to do
  • You may not have regular access to a masseuse

You’ve probably seen some of these massage guns and wondered if they work. We have tried lots of massage devices, and this massage gun particularly impresses us. If you need to recover after a workout or strenuous activities, this massage gun is worthy of your attention.

What Makes the OPOVE M3 Pro Massage Gun Special?

This device treats Fascial muscle pain with trigger point precision.

Myofascial and trigger point massage is a specialized form of massage therapy. The price of this massage gun is about the price of one Myofascial massage session. With the OPOVE M3 Pro Massage Gun, you can get targeted results at home.

The massage fun has multiple heads that emulate specific massage therapy techniques. For example, the four shaped head is similar to how a massage therapist treats muscles around the spine.

Defining Trigger Points & Trigger Point Therapy

Ever hit your elbow in that spot sometimes called the “funny bone”, and a “zap” radiates down your arm? Trigger points are similar. There is one very tender spot and then a restricting, constant ache. Trigger points radiate into the surrounding tissue and can irritate nerves.

Trigger points form because of muscle trauma. [1]. That trauma can be from injury, repetitive use, sports, or heavy exercise.

Trigger Points often develop in the fascia. Fascia is the connective tissue around muscles and organs. It can become injured but does not recover as well as a muscle. Tight fascia can squeeze and irritate a muscle and causes discomfort. It is a deep ache that can disrupt function, concentration, and even sleep.

How do you know if you have a trigger point?

A trigger point feels like a “muscle knot”. If you press on the knot, it feels hard and stiff. It likely causes radiating pain. It may throb. A pain pattern can develop if the fascia is not readjusted. Trigger points don’t resolve or release on their own.  This is why athletes and dancers get regular massage to recoup and return to practice.

The treatment is called myofascial trigger point therapy. Massage therapy is one of the things done to alleviate trigger points.

Trigger point therapy helps issues like low back pain and carpal tunnel. A study shows Trigger point therapy reduces plantar heel pain and improves function. [2]

Experience

This massage gun is POWERFUL !! I am surprised it is so quiet. 

It tackles problem areas with precision.  It just takes a few minutes to recover from tough muscle workout, sitting too long at a computer, or standing all day.  

Using the included Trigger Points Therapy guide, I can quickly isolate where to focus the massage gun for optimal results and a fast recovery after a workout or other strenuous activity.

I especially like it on my sore feet and aching calves. It is amazing after “leg day” workouts, wearing stiletto heels, or standing on my feet all day.

Women’s Rush Relief Joint Health Formula by Dr. Benjamin Rush

December 18, 2019 · 6 Comments

Inflammation is an enemy. It is a component of several health issues and discomfort. Many factors cause excess inflammation in women. Research shows specific ingredients reduce inflammation. Women’s Rush Relief is a formulation of effective, natural anti-inflammatories. It‘s designed to stop the damaging impact of inflammation and relieve pain.

Many chronic health issues and acute injuries have a common factor: inflammation exists. Inflammation can damage and deteriorate the body, weaken cartilage, impair productivity and function as well as cause discomfort. But inflammation can be greatly reduced.

The Ginger in this formulation benefits menstrual discomfort and other inflammatory responses

The formulation contains Ginger and other anti-inflammatories to naturally reduce inflammation and pain.

Who Benefits from Women’s Rush Relief?

This Joint Health Formula is designed for women who have joint pain. But these ingredients also benefit a host of other health issues that have an inflammatory response.

Injury, Illness & Aging

If you’ve experienced an injury, especially to a joint, there’s typically inflammatory discomfort. Anti-inflammatories reduce the inflammation response and associated pain and allow healing and restore better function.

Even without injury or illness, several factors increase inflammation over time for women including age, weight, hormones, menstrual discomfort and metabolism.[1]

If back or knee pain is limiting your function or activity level, you’re not alone. Dr. Rush’s Formula is designed for women who need support to sustain optimal function.

migraine headaches

Many women experience hormonal migraines or headaches. The inflammatory component of headaches and migraines is painful and severely debilitating. But the right combinations and dosages of specific natural anti-inflammatories can relieve migraine pain.

Research shows turmeric as effective as one prescription migraine medication (beta-blocker class). It curtailed the inflammation response in 2 out of 3 migraine stages. [2] Women’s Rush Relief contains turmeric and several other supporting anti-inflammatory ingredients.

Post Workout Recovery

Are you sore a day or two AFTER a workout? This is called Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). This includes the soreness after a strenuous “leg day”, pilates, barre, and yoga. Ease the pain of inflammation naturally. Faster recuperation means less discomfort and less down-time between workouts.

Two soft capsules daily reduces inflammation and optimizes function

Skin

Here is a lovely bonus. These ingredients also address skin inflammation and therefore offer anti-aging skin benefits. Removing skin inflammation keeps skin younger and fresher with less sagging, dullness, and fewer wrinkles. Don’t age before your time – stop inflammation in its’ tracks!

Turmeric for headaches

Turmeric helps ease headaches

Women’s Rush Relief contains a research-backed turmeric dosage to stop the painful inflammation stage of a headache. 

Getting Your Daily Anti-Inflammatory Dose

A diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods is a wonderful first step to feeling better. But the most effective anti-inflammatories are often lacking or completely missing from our dietary intake. Women’s Rush Relief contains effective, research-backed, natural anti-inflammatories.

Let’s examine this formulation’s contents and see independent supporting research behind the efficacy of each ingredient.

INGREDIENTS


Turmeric Root

Turmeric root

Turmeric Root is an amazing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. It is flavorful and tangy, but an acquired taste. Consuming larger quantities is necessary for true anti-inflammatory benefits. This golden root addresses inflammation pathways to reduce pain and inflammation.

Curcumin is the primary active in Turmeric. Curcumin has been studied for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities and analgesic effects.

 

Glucosamine Sulfate

Glucosamine is a shellfish* product. It maintains healthy cartilage by rebuilding cartilage lost due to age or injury. It increases type II collagen and proteoglycan synthesis while reducing pro-inflammatory factors.  It improves the anabolic/catabolic balance of the extracellular cartilage matrix (ECM). [3]

 

Chondroitin Sulfate

Chondroitin stimulates healthy cartilage and aids in post-workout recovery. It is paired with Glucosamine to support injured or aging joints. Clinical trials report chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate offer pain control and increased function. [4]

 

Ginger Extract

Ginger root 

Ginger root is available fresh or in ground powder form. Ginger reduces inflammation. Studies show two components of ginger, gingerol and zingerone reduce the inflammation to a number of common diseases and ailments. Ginger eases menstrual pain.

Do you experience soreness after a good workout? Studies show daily ginger consumption “resulted in moderate-to-large reductions in muscle pain following exercise-induced muscle injury.” [5] Ginger is also an effective pain reliever in osteoarthritis patients. [6]

 

Boswellia Extract

Boswellia is an herbal extract from the Boswellia serrata tree. It has long been used in folk medicine. It’s believed to treat chronic inflammatory illnesses and certain health conditions because it demonstrates potent anti-inflammatory actions. It even demonstrates certain anti-cancer activities. [7]

A research study showed Boswellia helps osteoarthritis. In the said study, OA knee pain decreased after 90 days use of the Boswellia product. It also reduced the levels of a cartilage-degrading enzyme. [8]

 

MSM

MSM is Methylsulfonylmethane. MSM is a natural sulfur found in some plants, nuts and cruciferous vegetables. It supports healthy tissue development including skin, joint, and lumbar tissue. Some studies show MSM reduces breast cancer inflammation. [9] Another study of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee took MSM for 12 weeks and showed an improvement in pain and physical function. [10]

 

Bioperine

Bioperine is another name for piperine. Piperine is a compound that comes from black pepper. It increases absorption.  Its role in this formulation is Turmeric support. The Curcumin in Turmeric is poorly absorbed when taken alone. Bioperine boosts absorption up to 2000%. [11] Bioperine is key to maximum turmeric benefit.

Black peppercorns contain piperine AKA Bioperine, which naturally enhances absorption for maximum benefit

Quercetin

Quercetin is a “polyphenolic antioxidant” or flavonoid antioxidant [12] found in plant foods, including leafy greens, tomatoes, berries, broccoli. red wine, green tea, and kale. [13] It is an exceptionally powerful antioxidant to fight oxidative damage and free radicals. [13, 14]

 

Methionine

Methionine is an amino acid involved in body functions such as the synthesis of important vitamins like Vitamin B12.  Methionine is naturally found in spinach, zucchini, meat, fish, mushrooms, and asparagus.

 

Bromelain is found in the pineapple core

Bromelain

Bromelain is a protein-digesting enzyme extracted from the flesh and stem of the pineapple plant. Bromelain reduces inflammation and swelling by breaking down the inflammation-causing molecules within the body. [15] It promotes wound healing, easing digestion, reducing muscular or joint pain, skin injuries and reduces allergies or asthma. [16]

  • No Glyphosate
  • No Sugar
  • NO PCB’s
  • NO Soy
  • NO Harmful pesticides

ABOUT The Capsule

swallowing

It is easy to swallow. I can always swallow these on the first try because they are a soft gel vegetable capsule (Cellulose). It is soft enough to squish between the fingers.

dose

Take two capsules, preferably 20-30 minutes before a meal, with eight ounces of water.

aftertaste

I didn’t experience any aftertaste. There is the slightest of light spicy aroma, which makes sense considering some of the ingredients are often used as spices.

Our Experience

We find this formulation particularly helpful with post-workout soreness. Instead of taking Advil after regular workouts, we find this formulation a particularly helpful and safe remedy to DOMS.

Women’s Rush Relief is an easy way to get daily Turmeric benefits without the fuss of powders or smoothie preparations.

It is easy to use. We try to regularly incorporate ginger and turmeric into smoothies. But even when fresh turmeric is available, it is time-consuming to grate it. Women’s Rush Relief gives all the benefits without the work.

Headaches are painful and disruptive. This formula reduces the frequency, duration, and intensity of hormonally influenced headaches. Most prescription migraine medications have undesirable side effects. Finding a natural remedy that is as effective as some prescription migraine medicines is an exciting find for headache sufferers.

I am also pleased to reduce my Advil or ibuprofen intake in favor of an equally effective natural treatment for general aches and pains.

Aside from feeling generally better and gaining a faster recuperation from my post-workout soreness, my skin has a lovely glow!

 

Research shows the combination of bromelain, turmeric, and quercetin work synergistically for maximum efficacy & optimal results

A Supplement to Function Optimally

Why live with discomfort? Don’t let an old injury, a headache or other health problems keep you from being as active as possible. Natural anti-inflammatories are a safe way to cope with a range of issues without the side effect profile of over-the-counter NSAIDS or prescription medications.

Athleisure Must-Haves for Every Wardrobe

October 21, 2019 · 1 Comment

The athleisure craze shows no signs of slowing down. What began as a tongue-in-cheek trend has since turned into a global fashion phenomenon, especially as more brands continue to offer their own take on the trend.

While it hasn’t always been referred to as such, athleisure is by no means a recent invention. Think back to the times when you had to dress up in ’80s outfits – you were probably decked out in workout tights and spandex suits, with your hair up in a ponytail. These styles were already present, but the recent growth of the fitness industry means that more and more people are relying on these clothes to take them from the gym to a brunch date and back.

Read on below for five must-have items to rock an athleisure look:

A flattering tank top

Tank tops are an exercise godsend, as they manage to keep you covered up while not being too revealing. Some like a more compressed fit to aid their workouts, while others prefer a looser fit. Athleta’s Foothill tank suits both camps, as it can be tied at the back and adjusted to suit your own needs. Athleta also offers breezy crop tops for those who want a no-nonsense option.

A hooded jacket

Speaking of covering up, a jacket is your best bet for running straight to your errands. Woman Within’s light hooded jackets come in neutral hues, allowing you to go a little brighter with the rest of your clothes. The best part is that these jackets are light enough to stuff in your bag at a moment’s notice. When you’re not wearing your jacket, however, consider draping it around your shoulders for a chic look.

Reliable leggings

Leggings are usually the first thing that people think of when it comes to athleisure, with every other brand offering their take on supportive and well-fitting leggings. Durability is also an important factor, which is where Fantasfit’s High Waist Yoga Leggings take the cake. Their black leggings are a classic option, and the color is dark enough to be completely squat-proof.

A comfy sweater

There are few things more comforting than your favorite sweater, especially if you’re someone who lives in a colder climate. The North Face offers pullover hoodies decked out in fleece (also known as this fall season’s newest trend), with its looser style ensuring a good fit across all body types. Throw a sweater over a pair of leggings for a casual cool look that works even if you’re meeting friends for lunch.

Functional sneakers

Last but not least, it’s not a full athleisure look without a solid pair of sneakers. A good pair is worth investing in, especially as cross-training shoes provide the necessary support to get you through your day. Reebok’s CrossFit sneakers are a perfect example,and they come complete with orthopedic support. They’re pretty easy on the eyes, too.

One of athleisure’s biggest benefits is its emphasis on comfort. It’s the marriage of style, function, and wearability. That’s why it’s no surprise that some fashionistas have made the switch to wearing athleisure on a daily basis.
