SPORTS MASSAGE

WHAT IS SPORTS MASSAGE?

Sports massage is a form of deep tissue massage specifically to aid individuals who are physically active, whether as a professional athlete, a recreational sports player, or someone who exercises regularly. The main focus of Sports Massage is to rehabilitate the body by relieving tension and strains in groups of muscles. The practice aims to help prevent injuries and improve performance by optimising the recovery process after physical activity.

 

Sports Massage is used effectively alongside Osteopathy and is often advised in order to maximise the speed and efficiency of recovery.
