Serious athletes are used to high intensity training, it goes with the territory. However, over exertion and/or accumulative fatigue can result in trauma through sprains, strains, fractures and bruising. Soft-tissue injuries often prevent athletes from performing at their best and recovery times are critical.
Q Magnets are potentially a simple and safe therapy option for athletes and should be on-hand when the need arises. Here we explain how to use Q Magnets for minor strains and sprains and other injuries and the evidence.
Simon Black is one of the all time great AFL players and a genuine, terrific person. Simon was introduced to Q Magnets through the football club support staff and until we interviewed him, we had no idea how much he used Q Magnets and how much he loved them. They were integral in his recovery routine and in extending his playing career.
Many professional sports teams now use Q Magnets as an adjunctive therapy for the temporary relief of minor aches and pain and to assist athletes to get back to their sport sooner. This was the feedback we received from a staff member of The Western Force, Rob Naish, after using Q Magnets on a bruise…
“…This means they can get back on the training pitch earlier in the week which helps their preparation and the team’s preparation to perform at the highest level.”
But there are limitations to using Q Magnets, they are not a miracle cure for soft-tissue injuries. One professional Australian Rules Footballer who had his fair share of injuries was Brisbane Lions ruckman Jamie Charman. We met Jamie in 2009 and because of back pain had been through three king-sized beds in his search for a good night’s sleep. Simply following the lower back treatment protocol, Jamie was finally able to get a good night’s sleep free from back pain. However, after many years of competing, Jamie announced his retirement at the age of 29 with a chronic Achilles tendon injury. Q Magnets would assist with his pain and inflammation, but at times nowhere near enough to compensate for the physical demands professional athletes endure. What does Jamie say about Q Magnets today – SENSATIONAL!
