Relieving Massage Chair Treatments

By Eric Gomez

Massage chairs continue to keep pace with the overall advance of technology. You can now find many different types of therapeutic massage treatments which were not available just a few short years ago. Massage chairs have replicated many of the most popular massage techniques found around the world. These are now available in a massage chair at the touch of a button.

Massage treatment is used to help maintain the flexibility of the soft tissues and muscles. It accomplishes this by stretching and pulling on the muscle tissue. This helps to elongate tight muscle areas. This helps them to relax.

Massage chairs use mechanical methods to stretch and pull on different muscles in the body. For instance, for the back, neck and shoulders a roller mechanism is used. This mechanism goes up and down the length of the back and can provide a number of different massage techniques.

The versatility of a roller mechanism is in the variety of massage movements available. These sophisticated roller systems are able to make many different movements. Some typical movements are kneading, swaying, rolling, tapping, chopping, and gripping.

Many of these famous techniques use a combination of movements. These movements are done in particular sequences to deliver the massage treatments. Massage chairs use sophisticated programs to emulate many of these famous massage techniques.

Different types of sensors are also used in massage chairs. Some of these sensors are used to perform any body scan while others may be used to detect stiffness and tight muscles. The information gathered from these sensors is then fed into the chairs computer. It is then used to customize the massage treatment for the individual.

Another popular technology being integrated into massage chairs is air compression. In air compressor is used to pump air to air bags located throughout the chair. These airbags are specially designed for different muscle areas.

In air compression system works off a central air compressor. This delivers air to different air bags located throughout the massage chair. A system of the valves is used to regulate and direct the airflow. This enables the programmer to have precise control over the air bags.

Before you exercise, you should perform some light stretching. Light stretching helps to prepare the muscles for activity. It helps to make them more flexible which can help minimize injury. Massage chairs come equipped with stretching systems for different areas of the body.

The stretching systems can stretch out the larger muscles and joints of the body. Massage chairs in particular have should stretching systems for the lower body. This helps to take pressure off the lower back while elongating the joints and larger muscles. Many times this type of stretching can not be accomplished in ordinary ways.

Many athletes use heat to help reduce swelling. Generally heat is applied after physical activity. It is normally used for short durations to reduce swelling of a specific area and to help but flow. Massage chairs have heaters located throughout different parts of the chair.

Of course, you can still find vibration as an option on most massage chairs. Vibration helps to stimulate the capillary vessels which provides for greater blood flow. It also helps to penetrate deeply through the muscle tissue providing relief.

With so many different massage treatments in a massage chair, a sophisticated remote control is needed. Typically, the remote control contains and LCD screen. This helps to show visually the operations that the massage chair is currently performing. There are also many different buttons for automatic programs and also for manual programming. It is terrific the number of different massage treatments in massage chairs. - 17268

5 Negatives Of NES And Arm Fat

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

Losing arm fat can be tough. And if you have night eating syndrome (NES) it will be that much tougher. What is night eating syndrome? It's when you have an excess of food late at night without restraint. Unfortunately, this leads to massive gains of arm fat.

And modern society has pushed women away from eating breakfast because of ever increasing workloads. Do you find it nearly impossible to eat breakfast in the morning?

And without the breakfast of a king, you're going to eat way too much once night time rolls around. Not a good scenario if you want to lose arm fat ASAP

To further prove my point, here are 5 reasons why arm fat is increased with night eating syndrome:

1. Too much muscle loss. Cortisol is at an all time high right when you wake up. And this hormone loves to eat muscle so that you can have energy. Unfortunately, skipping breakfast allows cortisol to keep on rising. And don't forget that less muscle will have you burning less calories.

2. Poor insulin functioning. Unfortunately, having very little food during the earlier part of the day will mess up your body's ability to interact with insulin efficiently. What does this mean? More nutrients going to arm fat cells

3. Negative attitudes. Without breakfast, you're more likely to have a poorer attitude during the day. Early morning nutrients do wonders for your brain and mood. Not only will you be more productive, but you'll be happier.

4. Unnecessary arm fat gain. Your body naturally shuts down as the day progresses. And when you're sleeping, your active tissues absorb calories at half their normal rate. So if you have a giant meal sitting in your stomach when you fall asleep, guess where it goes? To your arm fat cells!

5. Less movement. Altered insulin functioning caused by skipping breakfast will leave you with lower levels of energy for the rest of the day. And if your levels of energy are low, you'll want to stay seated and not move around. This translates into less calories (and arm fat) burned.

If you're serious about getting rid of arm fat, you have to start eating breakfast. And don't skip lunch either. Not only will you accelerate arm toning, but you'll also be in a much better mood during the day. So why not increase your quality of life and never skip breakfast again? - 17268

Some bodybuilders say that over training can be beneficial when done so that is not excessive, that is, for a brief period of time and then is given a greater period of rest in order to compensate.

Finally, through trial and error, finding I had a limited period of time in the day for exercise that I had to become more focused in my routine. My exercising has become more organized and efficient through the use of super-set, tri-sets and giant-sets.

Staying lean with my functional training in my main object of training now. I have be able to maintain my training schedule while be able to eat in a manner that is clean and helpful to me.

Pain-Living With It

By Dr. Jason Fowler

Chronic disease is a major problem in U.S. health care. More than one-third of Americans have one or more chronic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. The personal costs to patients and families are often severe, daily, and ongoing. The economic costs to society are almost $1 trillion annually.

Heart disease includes high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, coronary artery obstruction, angina, and heart attacks. Most of these conditions represent a chain of events. If left untreated, of course, high blood pressure is a leading cause of heart attack and stroke.

Most cases of diabetes develop from a pre-diabetic state which is also known as insulin resistance. Insulin - a hormone produced by the pancreas is necessary for cells to be able to absorb glucose from the bloodstream and use the glucose for energy. If cells become insulin resistant, glucose stays in the bloodstream, leading to a pre-diabetic condition.

Left untreated, pre-diabetes likely advances to diabetes, in which insulin resistance is combined with insulin depletion, as the pancreas loses its ability to produce this important hormone. Diabetes may lead to many severe problems, including kidney failure, and is a leading cause of death from heart failure.

Cancer is now being recognized as a chronic disease. Rather than being a mysterious disorder that occurs randomly, many cancers are now understood to have many elements in common with other chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.

Pain is a common element to chronic disease. Affected persons often take daily pain medications. Most people become tolerant to their medication and require increasingly stronger doses. The pain of chronic disease is notoriously difficult to treat.

In the last few years a holistic approach has been successfully applied in the treatment of heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Chiropractic care is an important component of the holistic approach.

Chiropractic care helps restore more normal biomechanical function to the spine, which in turn improves the ability of the nerve system to effectively communicate with the rest of the body. Important benefits of this restored function may be an improvement in the body's ability to repair damaged tissues, a strengthened immune system, and reduced levels of musculoskeletal pain. Such improvements may help lead to improved daily functioning. As levels of pain decrease, a person may be able to engage in more physical activity. Multiple benefits follow.

Chiropractic care is a key part of an integrative approach to the management of pain of chronic disease. Your local chiropractor will be glad to help you determine whether chiropractic care is right for you.

7 Fat Loss Tips that Will Help You Lose More Weight

By Davy Jones

You don't like to follow a strict diet to lose weight. I don't like strict and drastic diets either. I have tried all kind of wacky stuff just to shed a couple of pounds. I have done many mistakes along the way. Here is what I have learned:

1)Eat foods containing few calories. You don't need to go on a hunger strike to lose a couple of pounds. All you need is the willpower to eat low caloric foods. If you give your body less calories daily it will be forced to tap into those fat deposits. You will start burning more fat daily.

2)Avoid eating fat food. All fast food if full of calories that make you fat. Go to restaurant where they cook your food just like you would do it at home. While you wait for your food you can catch up with friend or finish dome work.

3)Get a healthy lifestyle not a diet. If you want to lose weight and keep your fabulous looking body for a longer time you have to change your lifestyle. You have to get healthy eating habits and exercise more. Fruits and vegetables are your friend in the fight against fat.

4)Eat lots of fruits. Fruits are the key to a healthy and nutritious diet. Eat lots of fruits to give your body all the vitamins it needs. You will feel energized if you start eating more fruits.

5)You don't really need to eat all the food you are eating now. Probably you are overeating at each and every meal. Eat smaller portions and always leave some food on the plate. You should never feel stuffed after eating a meal. Also you should never feel hungry either.

6)Eat more foods rich in proteins and dietary fibers. Proteins and fibers help you feel full and keep hunger away for longer periods of time. You should eat more chicken meat, beef, nuts, low fat cheese and yogurt, whole grain cereals

7)Learn to eat your food slowly. I know you are always on the run. Finding time for a peaceful meal can be a challenge in our fast paced modern times but you have to do it if you want to lose weight and keep it off. Chew your food well and take smaller bites. Your brain will have the time it needs to signal you that you are full and you don't need any more food. - 17268

Body Building Tips & Workouts to Achieve Muscle Growth

By Ricardo d Argence

Starting young or at least as soon as possible is one of the best bodybuilding tips offered on how to effectively build and maintain muscles. Try to keep your bodybuilding habits as uncomplicated as possible so you can see the importance of hydration, nutrition and supplements. Exercising can increase metabolism while at the same time building muscle and burning fat.

This means commitment to focus on your own bodybuilding efforts ignoring hyped up marketing ploys for supplements or useless comparisons to the appearances of other bodybuilders. Understanding the exact procedures of building muscles is very important for desired results.

On the other hand, changing your routine too often will not cause the right stimulation of muscles. The body takes time to adapt to change. This means that if you wish to change or grow you muscles, you will need to do something over and over. Building and keeping muscle requires plenty of time, patience and regular repetition of workouts. Muscle growth tends to stall and plateau with the same workout, so you have to alter your routine slightly if you want to see continued growth.

After you find your ideal weight-training routine you should not change it. When you notice it is becoming non-effective change it. Derive whatever you are able from it and then proceed to a another influential routine.

Keeping things simple means achieving your goal by sticking to the basics. Since there are so many products such as workout programs, supplements, pills, training methods and theories out there you will have to use your best judgment before believing any claims. Keep yourself focused and motivated by using healthy and straightforward values. Speaking of supplements, yes you do need them to get all your necessary nutrients and vitamins. You need protein, creatine and various multivitamins when you are a bodybuilder. They aid in recovering from your intense daily workouts.

It is important to learn how to exercise, which means learning the benefit of compound movements, which will help muscle grow fast. Isolate your movements, it will help with the response of hormones, endurance, and quick muscle building quicker than heavy lifting. Meaning sensibly heavy enough for you to achieve results. As you continue to work out, you will be able to slowly increase the weight you use.

Attending to your body by keeping close tabs on your diet will help you to attain top results. Make sure you do not diet incorrectly to hinder the long term growth of your muscles. People can actually lose some of their muscle mass through not following a good diet plan. For every pound of total body weight you lose, you lose 60% muscle and 40% fat. Do not starve your body of what it needs. Keep in mind that you should alternate the days you perform cardiovascular workouts in your training routine, and that these workouts will burn calories.

Don't forget that you need rest and time to recover from exercise-related inflammation and promote muscle building for the long run. - 17268

HCG Fighting Obesity Trends

By Amelia Handley

Obesity rates in America are crazy. Out of our 50 sates...we've got only one that has an obese population under 20%. 32 have obese populations under 20% and 6 states have obese populations over 30%.

A large portion of the public concerned with the problem are turning to HCG as a solution. It's safe. It's natural. It's effective and offers drastic results quickly. It requires no prescription. It has no side effects. It doesn't require huge special food purchases. The required food for the meal plan can be found at your typical grocery store.

Competitive weight loss programs available for those looking for a solution require adherence to difficult strictures. Some involve intense counting of each and every calorie. Some leave dieters feeling like they're starving. And the medical procedures involve a risk and substantial recovery time. HCG is not invasive and fully natural and the very nature of the supplement means that you won't suffer from hunger pains.

The HCG diet does require dedication in order to succeed on the plan. It is a very low calorie diet with limited food intake. But the HCG keeps dieters from feeling hungry and allows them to successfully navigate the plan.

HCG stimulates the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus is the part of the brain that controls the eating/drinking. So the interaction between the two makes functioning on a very low calorie diet possible. Once the dieter is functioning on the low caloric intake, the body is able to absorb the fat cells as they are emptied as use for fuel.

The obesity rates in the US may continue to rise, but awareness is the first step and we've definitely passed that level and moved on to action. The more people who opt for natural methods of weight loss the more successful we'll be in beating the spread of obesity amongst modern society. - 17268
