End 2 End Therapy and Performance - Cupping Therapy 101 - https://mailchi.mp//end-2-end-therapy-and-performance-chan

Our new Massage Therapist Kristi loves using cupping on people and people love getting it! But what exactly is cupping? What does it do? Does it hurt? Does it really help? Keep reading for more info! Cupping is the suction of tissues up (versus classical treatment styles of compressing the tissue down) which in turn helps aid in the benefits we will talk about below and can be the difference maker if classical treatments and rehab aren’t working for you.... We typically use two types of cups (though there are others) and these are either a hard plastic or a soft silicon depending on the practitioner, their style and the goals they’re trying to achieve.Luckily for you, Kristi does both! Some of the many benefits include: - Pain reduction - Improved range of motion - Promotes relaxation - Improved circulation - Improved fluid exchange (gets rid of stagnant fluids and brings in the good stuff) - Helps alleviate adhesions - Mobilizes, hydrates and relaxes fascial tension/tissue - Helps with rebuilding injured tissues - Helps promote new and healthy blood vessels which aid in recovery Cupping shouldn’t hurt and most people typically report it feeling very nice and relaxing The marks stereotypically associated with cupping don’t always occur or have to occur.These are dependent on a ton of different factors such as: the tissue quality, how aggressive it’s being done, how long they’re left on, etc. These marks should resolve within a few days week typically. Cupping is one of the areas Kristi is really passionate about and specializes in. She adjusts based on your needs and really helps you feel your best by the time you leave. Whether you’ve had cupping before or are curious about trying it as part of your massage treatment, book in online with Kristi now to feel your best!

Heres a little Throw Back Thursday for ya! This was a time long, long ago. A time before social distancing, masks and lockdowns. A time when school was still in session and sports were played without a care in the world that is, until my boy Kieran here got slew footed into the end boards and broke his tibia and fibula! Playing AAA hockey can be rough and he found that out first hand. A massive injury for a young guy just getting into hitting but, he took it like a cha...mp and was determined to get back in for playoffs (right before the pandemic kicked off). As you can see here, he was finally at a point where he was allowed to weight bear and so, thats what we did! Not exactly the kind of cast meant to walk easily in but we worked around his injury in a safe way. Assisted squats, wall sits, glute bridges, bike sessions, battle ropes, leg abduction exercises etc. Everything we did was to start to ramp him up so that by the time his cast came off, we were ahead of the game! Even the doctors I had him consulting with werent sure if he would be cleared to play this year and be able to jump into playoffs they thought his season might be over. The timing of the injury and how little time he had to get ready was cutting it too close. But guess what? Us Athletic Therapists love a good challenge! Sure enough, the doctor cleared him and he was able to get a few weeks of regular season play in before playoffs started! Now, unfortunately the pandemic halted their playoffs halfway through but hes been doing fantastic ever since and been able to have a fun summer and train hard. I hope whoever is playing against him this year watches out because a kid with that much drive and determination is already a fierce competitor! Whether your goals are to be back in your game sooner, get pain free, build strength or anything in-between we can help!

When people think of Athletic Therapy, they often think of treatment and rehab for athletes. Specifically, elite level aspiring or professional athletes. While this is true, we treat everyone from your grandparents that just had a hip replacement, a warehouse worker with a sore shoulder, the weekend warrior and anything in-between. A lot of times, people dont even realize their jobs require athletic ability or even just their bodys to be functioning properly to do their... job. A mail man has to walk with heavy bags, up and down peoples steps and sometimes carry heavy boxes in awkward positions this is just one example of your working athlete! Meet Aaron Marshal. A professional, world touring musician with over 2 million views on Youtube and treated here at End 2 End Therapy and Performance. The day after his appointment he sent this text which is what we strive for with every treatment this kind of relief and satisfaction! He spends countless hours practicing on his guitar, hunched over in awkward sitting positions or writing and composing new music with the worst posture imaginable. When performing, you can see by the pictures how active he needs to be to thrill the fans! He takes care of his body, eats well and knows that the better his body feels the easier it is to do his job and passion! He too is an athlete due to his professions demands on his body! Amazing results and feedback from just 1 treatment with much more to come! Check him and his band out tagged in this picture Intervals! @aaronintervals Book in now to start feeling as good as he does and do the things you love pain free!

Tennis Elbow aka Lateral Epicondylitis Ironically, bothering him when he plays golf despite the name! Golfers elbow would be on the inside of his elbow. Most of the time people just focus on the source of pain and treat the elbow. With him his: pecs, shoulder, neck and back are all significant contributing factors.... So, in this treatment we address the shoulder and neck (not seen here is the spinal acupuncture done as well) since these areas seem to be the CAUSE of his issue. However, we don't ignore the elbow. We also address the elbow as this is the site of his pain and we want to reduce his pain feedback loop while also addressing the cause. Finally, specific exercise prescription to address all of the above and get him pin seeking again without pain in no time! #athletictherapy #cata #oata #massage #neurofunctionalacupuncture #acupuncture #cupping #healthylifestyle #chek #chekpractitioner #holisticlifestyle #strength #performance #e2etherapy #golf #golfgame #pinseeker #fore @ Pickering, Ontario

With the Raptor's doing so well the past couple of years it has me wishing I was still there! Throwback Thursday to a few years ago during the NBA playoffs working on the medical side of things. I look like a deer in the headlights caught on television but that's ok - what a fun ride it was!

Meet Kieran - a young AAA hockey player with a broken tibia and fibula 5 and a half weeks ago. He was cleared to start weight bearing last week and had his cast fitted with a slipper to do so. This week, he's squatting, bridging and wall sitting! Beforehand we did a 15 minute bike session with a tabata workout thrown in there as he prepares to get the cast off next week (need to get his conditioning up for returning to play in the new year). ... In previous weeks, we were doing various other exercises for the leg to "get it going". Mostly open-chain, body weight or banded exercises to address the glutes, hamstrings, quads etc. All about working within your injury and doing what you SAFELY can. As you can see his form is still pretty good for being limited by a cast and this is very important! We spent a lot of time getting his form as close to normal as possible here. Whether you're dealing with an injury as severe as Kieran's or just some general tightness and pain - signup for a session to get it taken care of!
