What is Sports Massage?

Sports Massage is a form of traditional massage that incorporates special techniques that help a therapist to assess, identify and treat specific problems that they may be present.

You do not have to be an athlete to benefit from a proper Sports Massage treatment. I treat people that range from Dog walkers to Elite Athletes

Some people also believe that you have to have an Injury to benefit from a Sports Massage but that is not always the reason for a treament as they can be used as part of a training regime to help maximise training and fitness goals, whether it be relieving tension to just helping you to relax after a hard day at work, they are all part of a proper massage.

There are many benefits of a Sports Massage here are what I believe are the most important:

• Relieves Muscle Tension and Soreness
• Restoring Mobility to Stiff, Injured and/or aching Muscles and Joints
• Prevent Reoccurance of Injuries
• Reduce the Frequency of Injury
• Speed up recovery process
• Increase removal of Waste products from training
• Restore or Increase the Range of Movement available at Joints
• Reduces Stress and anxiety
