In this video, Athena shares her secrets about how to relieve and loosen tight, sore shoulders and neck muscles. She talks about the importance of good posture and strengthening muscles of the abs, core and back to help hold you up and prevent strain on your upper back.

Athena also addresses the importance of getting massage work on a regular basis to relieve stress, pain, correct postural or structural issues and in general to maintain optimal health in the body. She also describes how stress and pain in the body can affect our emotions and cause us to be depressed, agitated, impatient, etc. because our stress hormones are always raging.

These massage tips will help you give a relaxing, healing massage and can help you provide specific relief for tight, sore, stiff muscles in the neck and shoulders.

For a true relaxation massage, it’s important to respect the body. Deep relaxation from massage may require several techniques- Swedish, Deep Tissue, Spa, Soft Tissue, Lymphatic Drainage, etc.

Athena is a Cranio Sacral Therapist, a Licensed Massage Therapist and Lymphatic Drainage Therapist.

Poor posture and a slouched, slumped back can contribute to a wealth of physical dysfunction and pain in the back, hips, butt, thighs, legs, arms, shoulders, neck, hands, and well… you get the idea. In this video, Christie Powell, head of physical therapy at Catz Austin, explains how poor posture can cause low back pain and other issues like carpal tunnel and sciatica. This video and the rest of the series will give you easy tips and exercises to alleviate pain and discomfort.

Often when we are sitting at the computer, watching TV or movies, playing video games, and driving, we slump into poor posture and a curved spine. This exerts pressure throughout the entire body and over time will severely weaken the shoulders and back so that sitting correctly becomes uncomfortable.

The only way to improve posture is to begin changing your habits and to try and get in the habit of reminding yourself to sit up straight. A posture-buddy at work is a great idea so you can keep reminding each other, or you can set a timer or alarm on your desk.

Part 2 will feature Ron Vaughn demonstrating some sports massage techniques to relax and unwind the muscles so the chest and pecs can loosen and open up, freeing the spine to move into its natural position.

Part 3 will give you some easy exercises and stretches you can do at home to assist with a tight neck and shoulders or back pain. She also will show an exercise using a physio ball and a foam rolller.

Christie received her Masters from Texas State University and is currently pursuing her PhD in Kinesiology/Movement Science at the University of Texas. She is dedicated to working with youth and adult athletes and is involved in various programs to promote education and increase awareness of athletic injuries.
