The benefits of sports massage?

Sports massage is a specialised therapy that offers numerous advantages to athletes and individuals. One of the key benefits is the improvement in blood circulation and lymphatic flow, which facilitates the removal of toxins from your body. Additionally, sports massage helps reduce muscle tension and pain, enhancing flexibility and range of motion. Furthermore, it aids in quick recovery after strenuous physical activity, enabling you to perform at your best.

People may choose to select this treatment who are:

  • Experiencing tension in specific areas of the body – most commonly in the back and neck.
  • Suffering from chronic pain.
  • Stressed and looking for deep relaxation.
  • Recovering from a soft tissue injury.
  • Postural problems.

It is important to note that these benefits can sometimes only be achieved after a few sessions. If the recipient is very tense, most of the first treatment will concentrate on warming up the superficial muscles. A following session will then target the posterior (deep) muscles to encourage blood flow.
