Massage therapist, Hitesh Patal recently took to Facebook to show his work on the backs of hairstylists.

The therapist from Leicester showed the extensive injuries that were suffered by hairstylists due to long hours spent standing in a hunched position while giving their clients the best hair styles.

One of the pictures was of Grace Campbell and it was not a pretty sight.


“She has been spending hours standing with her feet rotated forward, whilst holding brush in one hand and a hairdryer in the other while over her client’s heads for hours and hours,” Hitesh wrote on his Facebook page.

“Your muscles develop and stop holding your skeletal system in an unnatural off central position,”

“So, then when you finally do you put down your crimping equipment. And try and sit down and a natural neutral position it just doesn't work,” he explained.

In the picture we see Grace’s back and it is all red and bruised from the massage treatment she has received from Hitesh in order to fix up her spine again.

“Next time you look at your hairdresser and think they have an easy life, think of these pictures and see how much they sacrifice their own health just so your hair can look good,” he concluded in the post.
