Sports/ Remedial Massage

Have you been overdoing the training? Pulled a muscle? Feeling achey and stiff? Or maybe you think you've acquired a form of repetitive strain injury. Have you over exerted yourself at work? All of these problems can be addressed with Sports or Remedial Massage. Sports massage is not only for athletes, although of course it is beneficial to everyone who partakes in sports. It will benefit anyone who would like a deeper massage.

Sports massage is a deeper form of massage that can be given before, during and after sporting events, as well as a general maintenance massage to promote peak fitness. It is effective for releasing muscle tension and restoring balance to the muscular-skeletal system. Regular massage can help athletes to prevent injuries, especially from overuse. It can release the stress and accumulation of tension on the joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles. Any minor lesions or injuries occurring in the soft tissues can be broken down. Sports massage will work at a deeper tissue level, stretching and releasing muscle tension.

Remedial massage is part of sports massage therapy where the focus is on one particular problem area or injury using deep tissue massage. Rather than receiving a full body treatment, massage and manipulation will be focused on one area, stretching and working the muscle fibres or scar tissue. It helps to deal with pain, speed up healing and remove lesions.
