Case 1 Case 2 Implications for the Field of Massage Reference: Research Review: Interval training & type 2 diabetes. A total of 2 hours of high intensity interval training (HIIT) over 2 weeks improved insulin sensitivity in sedentary overweight men and women. HIIT offers exciting possibilities for time-efficient and physiologically effective exercise. Time seems short in our modern, fast-paced society.
We’re all busy people, running from appointment to appointment, working longer, staying up later, trying to cram in more things into what seem like fewer hours. And what’s often the first thing to go when we’re rushed? Exercise, of course. Well, here’s some good news: To get and stay fit, lean, and healthy, you might need less exercise time than you think. It might sound too good to be true, but recent research shows that only 1 hour a week of exercise for 2 weeks is enough to see improvements. High intensity interval training (HIIT) An example of “quick exercise that counts” is high intensity interval training, or HIIT. So what’s the ideal choice for the time-crunched? HIIT: Even a little does a lot Dr. All About High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) Searching for the most efficient way to get lean, get conditioned, and get tough? Look no further than HIIT. We can’t promise it’s easy…but it sure gets results.
What is high intensity interval training? High intensity interval training (HIIT) is when you alternate between high and low intensity exercise(s) or between high intensity exercise and a short period of rest. For example, a short sprint up a flight of stairs followed by a walk back down is interval training. Or a set of burpees followed by bodyweight rows. Example of HIIT on a Treadmill Example of HIIT with Body Weight If you’ve ever participated in HIIT, you know that alternating body weight conditioning exercises for 15 minutes can be a lot more challenging than a walk around the block.
Why is high intensity interval training so important? It’s physiologically impossible to sustain maximal intensities during exercise for an extended amount of time. Let’s say I tell you to go outside and run as fast as you can for 20 minutes. OK! Breathing Pattern Disorders. Introduction Breathing Pattern Disorders (BPD) (or Dysfunctional Breathing) are abnormal respiratory patterns in relation to overbreathing which ranges from simple upper chest breathing to, at the extreme end of the scale, hyperventilation.
Dysfunctional breathing (DB) is defined as chronic or recurrent changes in breathing pattern that cannot be attributed to a specific medical diagnosis, causing respiratory and non-respiratory complaints. [1]This is not a disease process, simply alterations in breathing patterns that interfere with normal respiratory processes. They can however, co-exist with disease such as COPD or heart disease, and in some cases can mimic cardiac symptoms[2][3]. BPDs are whole person problems, especially in long term conditions where dysfunctional breathing can destabilise mind and muscles, mood and metabolism[4].

Join a Research Study: Hormone Therapy-Related Mood Symptoms, Perimenopause-Related Mood Disorders The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of two medications in treating perimenopausal-related depression. Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMS), such as raloxifene, and phytoestrogens, such as RimostilT, have estrogen-like properties and may be effective treatment.
The effect of SERMS and phytoestrogens on mood and cognitive functioning needs to be examined in women with perimenopause-related depression. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to receive one of four treatments for 8 weeks. Participants will have clinic visits every 2 weeks, complete self-rating scales, give urine and blood samples and meet with the medical research staff. Ankle Sprain Research. “It now appears that both ice and complete rest may delay healing, instead of helping.” Gabe Mirkin, MD, Creator of R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) There is a great deal of recent research that strongly supports the healing techniques of H.E.M.
Ankle Rehab while also completely demolishing the myth that ice and rest will effectively heal a sprained ankle. Please, see below… The National Athletics Trainers Association found that ice was an over-simplified method and NOT effective at speeding up the healing process for a sprained ankle. “The inflammation process assists in healing. Therefore, the study also suggests you SKIP compression too, which had no real impact on recovery. Finally, the study found that exercise helped to maintain blood flow and flexibility to the injured ankle, both of which are proven to speed up recovery.
Researchers found that when muscle tissues cool from icing the skin, blood vessels constrict and shut off the blood flow that brings in healing cells.

"Changes in mental functions and capabilities are a part of aging and occur with everyone," report committee chair Dan Blazer, a professor of psychiatry emeritus at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C., said in an IOM news release.

Scientists say the MIND eating plan significantly reduces risk of the brain disorder FRIDAY, March 27, 2015 (HealthDay News) -- Scientists say they've developed an anti-Alzheimer's diet. While it couldn't prove cause-and-effect, the new study found that adults who rigorously followed the so-called MIND diet faced a 53 percent lower risk for Alzheimer's, the most common type of dementia. Those sticking to the diet just "moderately well" saw their Alzheimer's risk drop by roughly 35 percent.
"Often, people who eat healthier also participate in other healthy lifestyle behavior, but the MIND diet afforded protection [against Alzheimer's] whether or not other healthy behaviors or health conditions were present," said study author Martha Clare Morris, a nutritional epidemiologist at the Rush University Medical Center and the Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center in Chicago. One expert said he was intrigued by the findings. But both diets are more stringent than the MIND diet, Morris said. Massage Therapy Decreases Pain Among Care Workers - MASSAGE Magazine. 6 Things To Know About Massage Therapy for Health Purposes | NCCIH. Therapeutic massage takes on cancer fatigue.
In a continuation of clinical trials related to the biological benefits of massage therapy, Emory researchers are currently studying how massage may help reduce fatigue in breast cancer patients. Previous research conducted by Mark Hyman Rapaport, MD, Reunette W. Harris professor and chair of Emory's Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, has already shown that massage therapy can boost the immune system and decrease anxiety for people who do not have cancer. "We decided to look at massage therapy for cancer fatigue because cancer-related fatigue is one of the most prevalent and debilitating symptoms experienced by people with cancer," explains Rapaport, principle investigator for this study. "Many studies investigating massage for patients with cancer have been focused on depression, anxiety or pain.
" The Emory cancer fatigue study is a collaboration between the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory.
