European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - March 18, 1990, Darmstadt, Hesse A amps Kon Norgo turks have been Massage devotees for centuries. Here attendants at a Bath in Ankara use a Loofah to administer a Rubdown to men sprawled on a heated Marble soothe sore Muscles by Peter Sikowitz new York times Bill Rodgers first Massage was memorable on several counts not the least of which was that it happened by Accident. Quot i was running the new York City Marathon Back in 1974,�?� said Rodgers the Veteran marathoner Quot and i began having spasms in my legs when a woman who had been Riding her bicycle alongside some of us jumped off her Bike and began massaging my hamstring Muscles. Quot she said she was a Ballet dancer and this was a Good Way to get rid of the spasms. It did help. I did no twin but at least i made it to the finish Rodgers never Learned the identity of the mystery masseuse but he did learn about the importance of a timely Massage. Nowadays the 42-year-old Rodgers who has won the new York and Boston marathons four times each gets a Massage once a week. Quot i wish i had weekly massages Back in the beginning a said Rodgers who ran 28 races last year and continues to compete in marathons and Road races. Quot i think it would have helped my anyone who gets sore after a workout from elite athletes to the most casual competitors can Benefit from a Massage at the hands of a capable masseur masseuse Massage therapist muscular therapist or physical therapist. Although the idea of therapeutic Massage to loosen and relax overworked Muscles has been around for thousands of years few scientific studies have been conducted to determine exactly Why Massage works. Generally Massage brings Relief to sore Muscles by increasing the blood Supply to the area which helps remove waste products such As lactic acid and Speed the Healing process. Or. Norbert Sander a competitive runner he won the aforementioned 1974 new York City Marathon and head of the preventive and sports Medicine Center in Manhattan is a firm believer in the Power of Massage. Quot Many athletes believe that if they train hard the injury will just work itself out Quot he said. Quot the idea of Massage is a lot More popular among athletes in Europe than it is in the United states. You see the masseurs at the tour de France working on the cyclists. I often hear interviews with athletes where they done to thank their trainers they thank their Juan keys a muscular therapist who worked with members of the mexican olympic track team in the 1970s and now works with the middleweight Boxer Doug Dewitt and the Westchester Puma track club in upstate new York goes so far As to say performance can be improved by regular massages before workouts. Quot Muscles that have been relaxed by Massage use Energy More efficiently Quot he said. A stretching is not enough. A Massage should be part of an athletes routine to help prevent injuries As Sander said practically anyone could Benefit from a Massage after a workout to relieve routine soreness and stiffness and the More endurance a sport involves the More a participants Muscles Are Likely to need attention. Skiers should consider getting attention in the following areas Muscles of the lower extremities Hamstrings quadriceps and Back Cross country skiers should also consider the shoulders. Cyclists lower extremities and the Back. Tennis the shoulders Back biceps triceps forearm and legs. Golf the same As for Tennis. Running lower extremities and the Back including the upper Back and the neck. Massage should not be viewed As a mystical cure All Quot it works Best for a chronic injury Quot Sander said Quot one that wont go away or one that has you stymied and you can t get Back to where you want to be in your training. But for an acute injury such As a muscle tear you need rest and have to let the muscle before embarking on Massage consult a physician preferably one who is familiar with you and your sport. Once the nature of the problem is determined a plan which May or May not include Massage can be begun. But any Massage practitioner who might not be familiar with your specific needs could mean trouble. Quot inappropriate Massage can damage tissue furthering an injury and can cause More muscular and joint problems than before the injury Quot said Dennis Surdi a physical therapist.
