The hallmark sign of a “frozen shoulder” is being unable to move your shoulder – either on your own or with the help of someone else.

Sharon has undergone further training in Frozen Shoulder treatments with the Neil-Asher Technique from the UK, so she can help people here in South Australia.. 

What is Frozen Shoulder?

(Adhesive Capsulitis)

Frozen Shoulder Syndrome (FSS) is a common and debilitating condition. It is a clinical diagnosis and is only very rarely the result of an underlying illness or pathology. FSS is common, affecting 2-5% of the population. One of the many enigmas is that, once cured it (almost) never comes back again.

The condition is often misdiagnosed so we like to keep things simple and define it as a “a stiff shoulder with less than 50% of normal range of active and passive motion in any direction”. 

The important point here is that you can’t lift the shoulder and neither can anyone else lift it for you – it is completely stiff and locked. Other conditions can cause the shoulder to stiffen but typically, only in certain directions of movement.

Over the past 15 years Neil-Asher Frozen Shoulder clinic have have treated literally thousands of FSS patients from all over the world. We know what you are going through; the pain, the sleepless nights, the stiffness, the inability to do even the simplest tasks. Worst of all, you look “normal” to the world outside and yet you are suffering within. The good news is that it will get better and there are things you can do to speed it up.

Frozen Shoulder can last up to 30 months if left untreated, but the overwhelming majority of cases can be effectively treated with conservative (hands-on) treatment.

The absolute best thing to do if you feel you have a frozen shoulder is to seek advice from a therapist or practitioner skilled in assessing and treating the condition. The shoulder is a highly complex part of the body (and by far the most mobile) and it is often difficult, even for medical practitioners, to make an accurate early assessment of a shoulder injury.

How long does Frozen Shoulder Last?

We generally observe four distinct phases which – without treatment – will endure over an average period of 30 months. In most cases, treatment with the Niel-Asher Technique will speed up recovery by about 10 times.

Without Treatment Niel-Asher Technique™
Pre-Freezing (0-4 weeks) 1-5 Sessions
Freezing (1-8 months) 7-13 Sessions
Frozen (9-16 months) 5-8 Sessions
Thawing (12-40 months) 4-7 Sessions

Above is a excerpt from their website www.frozenshoulder.com

Drug free and surgery free this is a natural way to regain the use of your arm movements.

Call us today on 8536 8366 to book an assessment for your condition.

A Look at Acrylic Nails

A Look At Step By Step Acrylic Nails

Many women opt for artificial nails rather than natural. Some women prefer them because of their durability and strength, while others adore them for their length and beauty. No matter the reason, artificial nails are a commitment that also need maintenance about every two weeks to look their best. Whether this is your first time having acrylic nails applied, or you’re just curious about the process, the following step by step acrylic nails instructions may help you decide if they’re right for you.

acrylic_nails_07

Clean and Trim

Before an artificial tip can be applied, the natural nail bed has to be clean and dry. If you visit a professional manicurist, your nails will be filed, and your cuticles will be pushed back with an implement known as a cuticle pusher. Dead cuticle debris will then be removed from the edge with a cuticle nipper. Removing the old cuticle and pushing it back will create a more attractive nail bed and will also help nails look longer. Once the nail bed is clean and dry, nail tips may be applied.

Tips or No Tips?

For women who are satisfied with their natural nail length, applying an artificial tip may not be necessary. The gel and powder can be applied directly over the nail bed to strengthen and thicken the natural nail. For those opting for length, a faux nail tip is the next step. The nail tip that best matches your nail shape and width will be used.
The tips that are used can range from traditional white through to patterned and glitter tips. These look really stunning, and as the artwork is on the tips the look is uniformed to complete an even look.

Applying Liquid and Powder

Once the nail tip is selected, it’s time to adhere the tip to the nail bed. Two small glass jars will normally hold both the monomer (liquid) and the polymer (powder) acrylic for easy access and application. The manicurist will then dip a small brush into both formulas and apply a small bead of acrylic on the nail and tip, working quickly to build up and blend the two nails (natural and tip). This is the most difficult part of artificial nail application. If the formulas are applied incorrectly, the nail may appear lumpy, too thick, or crooked.

Hygiene and Cleaning

It has been in the media often about some clinics substandard cleaning of utensils and equipment. Our advise to you ask about the sterilization of tools and to look to see if a new clean set of brushes and tools are used each time you arrive.

Deep Tissue Massage

Mar 6th, 2013

Deep tissue massage is becoming increasingly popular and I have decided to explain something about massage and some of the benefits for your body.

 

 

 

 

 

I believe you as a client, should enjoy a massage and feel the ‘benefits’ in your body after leaving the table.

Often people have told me they have had a massage, and whilst they have had beautiful, flowing strokes some have complained they haven’t felt like any changes have happened to their bodies.

Conversely, most often another comment with  deep tissue work it is quite painful when experienced. This is not always the case as establishing a trust and a slower gentle style, the therapist can soften and stretch out the tight muscles.

A nurturing and easy touch is the therapist’s most powerful tool  to establish the bond between you both.

Sharon has had many years as a therapist and has helped many people to a better state of health with regular treatments.

Massage is like beginning a multi vitamin course, the more you have the better the response..

Muscles have a cellular memory and each treatment will help to encourage the muscles to respond faster and feel so much better. Also to relax is not as easy as one thinks as we often have not learnt how to relax well.

We live busy lives and often,after we finish working, fall into the lounge chair, enjoy a glass of refreshment and then eat and fall into bed.

Our bodies are tense and not wound down… massage helps to improve sleep patterns also!
Lowering our blood pressure, decreasing the stress levels and it feels wonderful to close off the world for a short hour every 2 – 4 weeks…

Come in and experience 3 – 4 treatments and experience the world of massage and if you have a health fund you only pay the gap as Bodysense has a HICAPS terminal in salon…

Call today or book on-line 8536 8366
