Sports Massage
Deep tissue sports massage is concerned with the management, manipulation and rehabilitation of the soft tissues of the body and has many benefits:
Improves Training
- increasing blood flow through the tissues can improve the recovery process allowing the athlete to train more effectively and safely
- it assists the removal of waste products and helps supply the tissues with essential nutrients to aid recovery
- increasing the knowledge of the deep tissues means advice can be given on specific stretching, training and equipment to help improve performance
Prevents Injury
- imbalances and damage in deep tissues can be detected earlier and potentially corrected before an injury develops
Improves Performance
- pre-event sports massage can stimulate circulation, calm nervous tension and help prepare the athlete for optimal performance
