Book Review: Self-Massage for Athletes

Rosalind Klann

After reading Self-Massage for Athletes, by Richard E. Poley, and trying many of the suggested massages, I found the book opened my eyes to the importance and benefits of simple and effective five-minute massages. Through text and more than a hundred black-and-white photographs, the book demonstrates how to incorporate a variety of massages into your everyday routine, including bathing.

As a collegiate athlete and woman, I find that avoiding injury, learning how to provide self-relaxation, and relieving common aches and pains are key needs. Self-Massage for Athletes clearly outlines massages for every part of the body, which prevents the athlete from feeling overwhelmed or unsure about how to begin massaging and relaxing her body. The system of massage involves seven simple massage strokes. The book’s strengths are not only in its straightforward approach to teaching massages, but also in the emphasis it places on the benefits of massage in preventing injury.

For many women, especially older women, flexibility and staying in shape are linked to good health. Active women will be able to return to this book time and again because aches and pains that may have become all too familiar after exercising can be massaged so as to be milder or even alleviated.

Massage doesn’t have to be a once a month treat. With the help of this book, women can integrate it into their daily routine to help maintain healthy and relaxing lives.

These are all inter-related facets and fundamental to one another. Much of this, in the end, is rooted in tradition, as tradition is another means of expression and symbolism.

Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out <a href="http://www.mayweathervsortizlive.net/pacquiao-vs-marquez-live-streaming.html">pacquiao vs marquez live streaming</a> of much life so. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be <a href="http://cottovsmargarito2fight.blogspot.com/2011/08/cotto-vs-margarito-tickets.html">cotto vs margarito tickets</a> good for something. He that has energy enough to root out a vice should <a href="http://mayweathervskhanfight.blogspot.com">mayweather vs khan</a> go further, and try to plant a virtue in its place.
