Spa Day at Pureskin!

Naomi Gonzalez — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 22:07:25 +0000

I've been working pretty hard lately so I thought I'd pamper myself and try out the Oleaslim Aromatherapy treatment Amy Boyce offers just down the hall from my office at PureSkin. Wow! I think that pretty much sums my experience up, however I recognize that won't assuage the curiosity seeker in you so here's what led to the 'Wow!'...

Injury of the Week- Groin Strain

Naomi Gonzalez — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 00:03:27 +0000

A groin pull; strain; adductor strain involves a tear, strain and/or bruising of the adductor/groin muscles. These muscles help connect your hips and thighs and work to bring the legs together towards midline. Generally, a groin strain occurs while playing sports that require quick pivots, changes in direction and explosive acceleration. The sports most commonly affected are soccer, basketball, ice hockey, figure skating, cross country skiing and swimming (especially breaststroke).

Inury of the Week – Bursitis

Naomi Gonzalez — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 01:33:54 +0000

Bursitis is defined as an inflammation of the bursa. Bursa is a small synovial fluid filled sac made of connective tissue. This bursa sac acts as a cushion to reduce friction and increase glide when bones, tendons and ligaments move over other soft tissue and joints. This protective cushion works to create smooth, uninhibited movement. If bursae were not present tendons would fray and rupture with repeated movement over bony prominences.

Injury of the Week - Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

Naomi Gonzalez — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 19:10:41 +0000

Frozen shoulder is characterized by a severe restriction or limitation in the normal range of motion the shoulder is capable of. Movements such as bringing the arm out to the side, raising the arm, reaching around to the back and/or sleeping on the shoulder can become excruciating. There is a general feeling of stiffness and inability to move the shoulder or arm easily.
