Introducing BRAYVA
For the past 14 months I have been working on another business in addition to Live Bright Physiotherapy, BRAYVA. BRAYVA is a fitness accessories brand that is everything I stand for as a Physiotherapist. It stands for strength, joy, health, fun and freedom. Bravery is often associated with masculinity and impossible goals. However, as a physio I have seen bravery in all forms. In people learning to walk again, in athletes who perform and in athletes who take time out, for their bodies to heal. In mothers, in fathers, in kids and in the elderly. Whatever bravery is to you, it should be celebrated, it should be encouraged and it should be colourful. BRAYVA currently has yoga mats, water bottles, foam rollers and trigger balls.
BRAYVA Performance Mat
The Brayva Performance Mat is designed to be able to handle high intensity workouts and also provide enough support for low intensity workouts. The BRAYVA logo runs down the middle and provides amazing alignment guidance, from lining up your hands in a push up, lining up your feet in a squat to jumping from letter to letter for skaters. In a world where our lives are busy and post COVID, a lot more people are working out at home. I want this mat to give you the confidence that you are performing the exercises with the correct form. Last but not least, the performance mat comes in 4 amazing colours that help bring joy to your workouts. Check it out here.
BRAYVA Foam Rollers
There are 2 types of foam rollers. The BRAYVA beginner roller and the BRAYVA performance roller. Foam rolling is one of the best recovery techniques to reduce muscle soreness and improve performance (check out this blog, for more information). However, it can often be avoided because depending on the roller you choose, it can be very painful. The BRAYVA Beginner Roller is made from a soft EVA that allows you to tolerate rolling even the sorest muscles. Whilst the performance foam roller is designed for those who love an intense release and is made from a firm EVA with an uneven surface, given extra structure by a PVC inner lining. A lot of my clients have found that they use the performance roller for certain areas of the body such as the calves and upper back and use the beginner rollers for mroe sensitive areas such as the ITB and lats. They also coming in matching colours to the performance mat, check them out here.
BRAYVA Water Bottles
Drinking water is an essential nutrient that our bodies need consistently in order to function properly. As a result, your water bottle should provide you with a pleasant and enjoyable experience. The Brayva Better Hydrate 1L Water Bottle is designed to provide that experience. It is a double walled, insulated bottle, keeping your water cold for up to 24hours and has a straw feature that is easy to drink from. You should carry a water bottle with you wherever you go, so we have designed these bottles in colours that allow them to express your personality and accessorise your outfits. We have had some amazing feedback from these bottles, with people drinking double what they normally do because they just love the experience. If you want to improve your water drinking experience too, check them out here.
BRAYVA Trigger Balls
A trigger ball is a self-massage device that provides a more concentrated release to a foam roller. BRAYVA has 2 types of trigger balls - single and peanut. The single trigger ball is great for releasing deep hard to reach muscles such as your piriformis in your bottom, your rotator cuff on your shoulder blade and even the bottom of your feet. Whilst the peanut trigger ball is great for releasing muscles around boney landmarks, especially up and down your spine. You can use these balls up against a wall and lean against them which allows you to control the pressure or for a more intense release you can use them on the ground with your body weight on top for a more intense release. You can check them out here.
