Exercise physiologists refer to it as Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) and describe it as the increasing discomfort that typically occurs between 24 and 48 hours after physical activity. It is important to emphasize that DOMS is not the same as the muscle pain or fatigue that may be experienced during exercise or the acute, sudden and sharp pain caused by injury (e.g. muscle strains or sprains). DOMS is simply the result of physical activity that stresses the muscle tissue beyond what it is accustomed to. When this happens, small microscopic tears occur in the muscle fibres, causing soreness or stiffness. Any unusual movement can lead to DOMS, but eccentric muscle contractions (when the muscle forcefully contracts while it lengthens) seem to be particularly damaging. DOMS typically lasts between three and five days and can range from mild to severe. Unfortunately, there is no universally recognized method to treat DOMS as no treatment has yet been proven to be 100% effective.
Over the past few years, however, a growing number of people have successfully resorted to acupressure in order to alleviate the symptoms of DOMS in a completely natural fashion-no anti-inflammatory drugs or other obscure tablets to ingest. Acupressure (not to be confused with acupuncture) is an ancient healing technique based on the application of physical pressure on specific points along the body. Such pressure boosts blood circulation and this increases the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the muscle cells. Acupressure also encourages the body to release endorphins and oxytocin, thereby relieving pain and muscle tension as well as facilitating sleep. People who have undergone Magnet Therapy Course USA, can treat the post-exercise pains with this therapy.
Today, it is possible to enjoy the benefits of both acupressure and Emotional Therapy Courses through a single device: the "magnetic acupressure mat". Such mat is characterized by the "spiky" plastic discs and the cylindrical bio-magnets that cover one of its sides. It must be emphasized, however, that although many different mats are available on the market, not all of them are equally effective. In order to choose the best ones, it is essential to pay attention to a number of factors. First of all, the above-mentioned plastic discs.
