Thursday night…aahhhhhh…soooo tired, can’t even move, sore shoulders…have to make dinner as well…oh someone just KMN!
Whoa!! Hold on, hold on…no need to be extremely depressing about one sore shoulder woman! Ooookay, fine, I apologize…it’s not just “one sore shoulder” but you know what?! Well I might just be your rescue tonight ;)
Here are some very easy, quick, and the best of all … self massaging tips for you. That’s right! Self-massage! Just sit at a calm and quiet place, wear something comfortable, and relax (after all that is the whole point anyway)
1. Let’s first start with stroking your right shoulder with your left hand. Start at the base of your skull, moving down to the side of your neck à down to your shoulders à to your elbow à and then slowly slither back to your neck
Repeat this 3times and then switch to the left shoulder (stroking with right hand)
Repeat this 3times and then switch to the left shoulder (stroking with right hand)
2. Now we’ll slowly put little pressure on the spine. Making circular motions (using your fingertips only) apply little pressure on either side of the spine. Glide towards your neck and then squeeze and release sore muscles on each shoulders
Well you can do this for as long as you please, but I would suggest for 10 minutes…
3. Ooooo this is my personal favorite. Make a loose fist using left hand and pound your right shoulder.
Repeat this 3times and then switch to the left shoulder (stroking with right hand)
4. And now you end it with gentle stroking on shoulder and neck area again. Make sure to stroke on one shoulder using the opposite hand and oh my! You will feel the relaxation yourself!
So…are you feeling a bit relaxed and charged up now? Great! So while you are making dinner tonight, make sure to visit us again…I promise to bring you more self-massaging techniques – only here!
