Heavy handbag? It can weigh you down
As life gets busier we start carrying more and more around in our handbags – actually some of the bags that you see couldn’t be described as ‘handbags’ – they’re almost suitcases!
So if you’re carrying your life around with you be aware that you could develop all kinds of physical reactions. If you feel:
- Pain around your neck or shoulder area
- Numbness or pins and needles in your arm or hand
- Persistent headaches
- Tightness on one side of your neck
You need to take action.
Rest won’t necessarily fix the problem, if your soft tissues are strained or stuck, you’re going to need some expert help to release the tension and get things moving again. This might include:
- Myofascial release to loosen your connective tissue
- Hot stones to warm and hydrate muscles
- Cupping to increase blood supply and release toxins
- Trigger point therapy to release pain
- Stretching to restore flexibility
Your pain may not be caused by lugging a handbag, it could be carrying a baby or toddler or lugging any heavy items around on a regular basis. Don’t compound the damage by doing nothing, get treatment to relieve the pain and restore normal movement again.
