Sports Massage

Sports Massage is the application of massage and stretch techniques to the muscle and connective tissues of the body for the prevention of injury and to enhance health and optimise athletic performance.

Sports Massage increases range of movement, increases flexibility and relieves muscle soreness. It assists in injury prevention and promotes faster recovery from both training and injury. By palpating the tissues, the therapist is able to locate, identify and treat areas of specific tension within the tissues that could lead to potential injury.

Sports Massage Therapy, although of major benefit to all sports and exercise participants in their recovery from training or injury, is not only for the athlete. It is also beneficial to those with physically demanding or sedentary jobs, as well as those suffering from the occupational, emotional or postural stresses of everyday life.
