 What is Sports Massage Therapy?
Sports Massage Therapy prevents and helps recovery from muscular aches and pains, niggles and other day-to-day physical problems. +
It’s a practise developed to help bring your body back to its full functional potential, often used by physiotherapists and osteopaths. It incorporates myofascial release and, in my practise, static stretching and corrective exercises to help rid you of pain and/or recover fully. It’s a more targeted and deeper type of massage than you may be used to at a spa or in a beauty treatment, although it does involve some Swedish massage strokes and the sensation of pain leaving your body is different for everyone.

A Sports Massage Therapy session includes a full assessment before any treatment, ensuring specific areas are targeted to treat any muscular or physical issues you might have, even if you’re only attending to help you relax. Whilst it was built and developed around athletes, its uses range from injury rehabilitation and prevention, to simply reducing occupational stress and increasing your overall well-being.
