Pernaton is yet again the official massage gel of the VW Ljubljana Marathon this year

Regeneration, or renewal of muscles, plays a very important role in sports. One should be thinking of it when planning their exercise, and at its foundation is a good rest. The body needs to rest, relax and recover after exercise or competition, otherwise the risk of injury increases. We cannot give you general instructions here, as each body is unique and therefore each person has to find his or her own balance. Massage or self-massage can also contribute to a more effective recovery. It aims to improve blood circulation and relax muscles and tissues. Pernaton, the sponsor of the VW Ljubljana Marathon, recommends the use of Pernaton massage gel, which acts as a mild and harmless gel with a localised effect on the muscle. It also has a very strong invigorating and refreshing effect.

The feeling of being cooled every step of the way is priceless. Pernaton gel will also be used at this year's event, as we will be providing quick foot massages for you along the course. Our Pernaton masseurs will be waiting for you at kilometre 17 and at kilometre 38. This will be the Pernaton Regeneration Point. A relaxing massage will give you a boost to keep flying to the finish.

At the Pernaton Regeneration Point you will have the chance to stop and cool down your sore muscles. A short while after applying the gel, you will start feeling its warmth, giving you a pleasant sensation with intense blood circulation in your legs. We’re positive this feeling will ensure you with more strength for you to reach your glorious destination.
