Although sports athletes benefit from sports massage, this technique isn’t restricted to sports participants, as it can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions, such as:

a) HOW DOES THIS HELP?

We will use a variety of deep tissue techniques which involve longitudinal stripping, friction techniques, stretching, active movement and trigger point compression.

b) WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

• Reduction in muscle tension, muscular pain and discomfort.
• Increased range of motion, leading to enhanced performance.
• Decreased muscle stiffness and soreness after exercise or physical activity.
• Reduce recovery time post-injury.

c) HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN?

The massage techniques increase the blood circulation, oxygen and nutrients, which helps to repair the muscle, flush out chemical irritants and waste products that has been stored in the muscle (For example after a 5K).

When a muscle is tight it can irritate nerve receptors within the muscle, causing muscle pain. Compression techniques will reduce tightness by relieving nerve irritation and muscular discomfort.

The sum of the benefits mentioned above will improve the range of movement that will increase sports performance and daily activities.
