Athletes Should Avail of Sports Massage Therapy in Brandon 33511, Bloomingdale, Riverview and Valrico

Athletes should avail of beneficial sports massage therapy from professional massage clinics that likewise provide Swedish massage therapy, deep tissue massage therapy and pregnancy massage therapy in Brandon 33511, Bloomingdale, Riverview and Valrico.

Terry Gerber, a 48 year old Ironman triathlete from Phoenix, relies on regular sports massage therapy from licensed massage therapist Alan McGarrity. Amy Lynn writes of their regimen in her article for Massage Envy Magazine published online in the Spring of 2008.

The Ironman triathlon, according to Lynn, is “one of the most grueling tests of human endurance there is.” It is made up of a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run, all done in succession with no rest for the competitors in between.

Lynn reports that triathlete Terry Gerber went to massage therapist Alan McGarrity only after several years of competing in triathlons and two years of competing in the Ironman triathlon. Gerber needed relief when he pulled a back muscle and McGarrity of the Massage Envy Paradise Valley Clinic in Phoenix, Arizona helped him.

Once free of his injury, Gerber decided to continue with regular sports massage therapy, realizing that it could boost his performance and his two hour daily workouts.

McGarrity explains how massage therapy benefits athletes. He says, “Massage therapy increases blood flow to the muscles and, by doing that, it enhances athletic performance. The increased blood flow enhances a number of other body systems, including the immune system, which also contributes to improved performance.”

Gerber did experience the gains brought about by regular sports massage therapy. After a year of weekly treatments, he reported, “I’ve found that regular massage therapy is preventive. I’m less prone to injury and I recover faster from my workouts. Because I feel better, I’m able to keep up with my daily workouts.”

Gerber adds, “My flexibility has at least tripled, which, in turn, pays off big dividends in my training and performance during events. And being more flexible is another factor in keeping me injury-free.”

Gerber’s main issue, of course, is to improve how he performs as a triathlete, especially in the Ironman competition. The therapy did not disappoint him in this regard. Regular sports massage therapy did help him show more power and endurance in the latter half of the triathlon. This is usually when most athletes are already exhausted but Gerber did much better than even he himself expected. “In the second part of my marathon I actually ran faster, which I thought was kind of remarkable,” he says.

Gerber clearly values his regular sports massage therapy. “To me, regular massage is a worthwhile investment to keep my muscles in shape so I can do the long workouts I need to do to be competitive in my sport,” he enthuses.

The sports massage therapy that helps Ironman triathletes can also be availed of by any kind of athlete or even just sports enthusiasts and fitness buffs in Brandon 33511, Bloomingdale, Riverview and Valrico. No matter what sport each one is involved with, or even with no particular sport in one’s fitness regimen, anyone interested in physical fitness can gain numerous health benefits from this therapy.

McGarrity recommends having sports massage therapy scheduled at least once a week or once every two weeks at the bare minimum. Each person should consult his or her own massage therapist to determine what schedule is best for his or her particular condition.

Aside from availing of sports massage therapy, athletes, sports enthusiasts and fitness buffs may also avail of and benefit from Swedish massage therapy, deep tissue massage therapy and pregnancy massage therapy from massage clinics in Brandon 33511, Bloomingdale, Riverview and Valrico.

wow

by A. Hanrof from on 2010-06-17
definately was smaller than i thought… the whole box was as big as my hand.. great product otherwise


so small…

by Cracky from Humboldt on 2009-12-05
This item is great, and amazingly TINY! I was a little disappointed to find this item for sale at my local CVS pharmacy for less than it is available on this website :( but all the tiny less-than-trial-size samples are great for one time use, a nice weekend kit. Exactly. Cute.


Way smaller than I thought!

by Kait from CT on 2009-03-16
The weekender kit is actually probably pretty good for a weekend-but not much more than that. It is a really small kit for the things you need more of i.e. massage oil. The massage oil barely lasted for one massage. Other than that, Kama Sutra’s stuff is very well made and it’s a nice way to spice up a weekend!


Love it

by Samantha Fay Deyo from Wisconsin on 2009-01-17
Me and my boyfriend both love this product, I was very suprised by how small the bottles were though. When I got this tiny box in the mail I wasnt sure it was the right package, but it was and these small containers are very worth the money. whats inside of them is very pleasurable.


Strawberry Dreams Version

by Rebecca Johnson from Washington State on 2008-12-23
“Prepare for a romantic getaway or encourage spontaneous affection with these travel-size treasures. Each is as potent as the pleasures of a sun-ripened berry, ready to be plucked on a whim.” ~ instructions page

The Kama Sutra Strawberry Dreams Weekend Sampler is a 4 x 3 x 1-inch box you could keep in your purse for spontaneous sensual experiences. The idea is to have everything you need all in one box and the idea is creative. The box itself is beautifully designed and is slightly mysterious. Open the box and six items are neatly arranged.

This box holds sample sizes of:

Strawberry Dreams Oil of Love – A syrupy warm oil that tastes like strawberries and honey.

Sweet Almond Massage Oil – Almond oil, grapeseed oil and Pistachio oil

Love Liquid – Slippery water-based with guar gum

Strawberry Dreams Pleasure Balm – Strawberry and Peppermint gel.

Strawberry Dreams Honey Dust – An edible superfine powder containing natural honey. Completely exotic and tastes like powdered sugar infused with strawberries and honey.

Feather Tickler – Use to apply Honeydust (cats will steal the feather toy if you don’t keep it in the box)

This little kit is all you need for a weekend or for a spontaneous moment in time. This is an inexpensive way to try some of the Kama Sutra items. You may also like the original kit, which is the first one I tried. If I had to choose between the original kit and the Strawberry Dreams I’d choose the latter. Once you taste the strawberry oil of love I think you will agree. You may also love:

Great – Not too oily

by bruceddot from on 2010-07-17
My wife and I love this oil. It is not too oily and doesn’t leave a yucky oily residue feeling. Smells wonderful too.


smells great

by Brett Husebye from Michigan on 2010-02-20
This stuff is a nice light smell. Warmed up im sure it would smell even better and be even more relaxing.


Make sure you like the scent before getting a large

A must have if you are intimate with anyone.

by brian tickes from SAN JOSE, CA, US on 2010-08-31
The lotions last forever and the multiple scents allow the massages to not going old and repetitive. There is enough oil for about 100 sessions and its not that messy… The Oil does not irritate the area below… THIS STUFF IS GREAT


Its alright.

by Tina from on 2010-08-16
We really only like 1 of the 5 scents which is why I’m only giving it 2 stars, but we do really like that scent and have used most of it.


Smells amazing

by BobbyV from Temecula, CA on 2010-05-18
Kama Sutra comes through again with these massage oils that smell amazing. And while they are a true massage oil, they aren’t overly slippery or sticky. Great by for the serious home masseuse or occasional back rubber.


Exactly what I was looking for

by A. Watson from on 2009-10-26
It was just that. I had never used this massage oil before so I didn’t want to buy a huge bottle so these were perfect. Also, my husband and I both have sensitive skin and we had no trouble whatsoever with this product. A surprising plus was that we could use them in the bath tub no prob. I would definitely recommend.

cheap, poor shipping

by Roy from on 2010-06-30
The box looks decent, but when my fiancee opened up the exterior plastic covering the box, the top red button had already fallen off. She opened it up and the “kama Sutra” piece that was glue gunned to the inside of the box had already fell off as well (probably due to be stored in a warehouse that was too hot). And on top of that the massage oil (that stunk) had leaked over everything. The “feather” was tiny. I suggest creating your own “bedside box”. This one is not worth it.

Honeydust

by GatorMan from OK on 2009-04-30
It tastes good and is light to go on…don’t think it massages well into the skin…and its kinda dusty…But its not bad either…good taste and smell…but not a substitute for good massage oil/lotion.


Nice Gift

by Frank J. DeFelice from San Jose, CA on 2009-01-09
I gave it to my dear friend for Xmas. And she purred like a kitten …


Heavenly!

by Mary Lou St. Lucas from California on 2006-07-06
I’ve been using this as my everyday body powder. It’s very gentle to my sensitive skin. I love the honeysuckle scent.


Great Stuff

by Princess Katie from HELL, Arkansas on 2006-04-28
This powder is a MUST have if you are a woman and live in a humid climate! This powder will keep you dry all day and you can use it EVERYWHERE! Plus the fragance is great and light, and the best is that it is edible! ENJOY!!!!


This stuff rocks!! Better than a massage oil!

by Aaron Clayson from California on 2006-04-25
I was pretty unsure about this stuff, despite hearing how awesome it was for body massages from a good friend of mine. But here’s the deal, the dust is fine, but still a tiny bit gritty. When you massage with it, your hands just seem to glide, and the constant friction from the dust really does warm the skin – and it’s quite noticeable! It has a very sweet yet not overpowering scent, very appropriate for an intimate setting. It’s edible, and isn’t so sweet that it could make you sick, it actually has a very nice, light flavor. It comes with a little feather brush that you can use to spread the dust, it tickles a tad :o). Cleanup is a breeze, after all, it’s just dust. I’ll probably never buy massage oils again.

All you need for an amazing & romantic getaway

by Bryan Ulatowski from on 2009-11-05
Don’t even worry about the details for a great weekend when you purchase this kit. Kama Sutra is the best there is, and we’ve had couple after couple come back to us loving their time playing with these products.

We run a hotel room special package service around the U.S., where couples order rooms to be set-up in a romantic theme before they arrive for their Anniversary, Wedding Proposal, Birthday, and Valentine’s Day. Time after time, we hear the getaway kit is famous for the body soufflé! One couple even extended their stay in Seattle because they said they haven’t tried everything in the kit yet. Whether you believe them or not, you need to reward yourself and schedule some quality time with a loved one with this kit, or order a hotel room to be decorated before you arrive from Uberoom’s website.

Our only problem is that the getaway kit has one candle. We include 12 more, which is mandatory if you are staying for more than one night.

REALLY SMALL

by A. Rodriguez from on 2008-02-20
These products were super small. The box they come in fit in the palm of my hand so you can imagine how little they are. Not recommended for the price.


Fun Fun Fun

by La Flaca from Westchester County, NY on 2007-07-25
This product is great, it might seem expensive because everything in the box is really small (like sample products) but if you were to buy each product full size you would spend a lot more money than that. You will have a lot of fun with it that’s for sure. My favorite is the dust, tastes really good and it smells very sensual. It’s a great way to test these products and see if you want to buy the bigger versions. This product will last you a very long time, unless you are going to use it every night. It is for sure a great product to break the monotony in bead.

Love the sensation, Hate the mess

by A. Algara from California, USA on 2010-03-25
The smell is a little overpowering in the can, however it gets more subtle when actually on the skin.

I LOVE the sensation of this powder on my skin, but I don’t like the huge mess it makes inside and outside of the can with the feather applicator that’s provided.

My husband didn’t really like the taste… I don’t lick it off myself so I can’t really comment on that. I do love the silky feeling, but it doesn’t last for hours. I use this powder mostly in the summer when trying to feel fresh and smooth.


Not that great

by Sarah Willis from on 2008-12-29
I purchased this assuming it would have a floral scent but hoping the honey overtones would balance out the experience. It is very floral- too much so. The taste isn’t bad but I would never use this product for massage or daily use as some other people suggested because the smell is so strongly floral. Additionally, it is very powdery – messy to apply (duh- right?). My main dissapointment is that it does not leave the skin silky smooth or taste very much at all on the skin. Over all, I like Kama Sutra products but I would stick with their massage oil- we’ve used that for years and it is fantastic. This honey dust was a waste of my money and now shelf space.


I love this product.

by D. Dale from on 2008-08-25
Just be careful wearing it while working in the garden. Bees love it too.


This Stuff is GREAT!

by R. Anderson from Marquette, MI USA on 2008-06-17
I hesitated, at first, to get this stuff. But, we have enjoyed it very much!
The honeysuckle scent is really—stimulating— at least to me. Obviously
it’s a flowery smell but there’s just something about it that we’ve both found
very cool.
The feather duster applicator is a nice touch, and oh by the way this stuff feels good
on the skin, and strangely enough it even tastes good.
Highly recommended!!


Great product even for everyday use!

by G. Edwards from Katy, Texas United States on 2008-02-08
I use this powder everyday! It’s silky and does not cause any allergic reaction. It’s also a nice surprize for my DH.
