Sports Massage:
Sports Massage is every athletes dream therapy and much needed healing remedy. Most elite athletes consider sports massage an essential part of their training and recovery routine. It is not just for seasoned athletes, it is also frequently used by weekend joggers, swimmers, high school football and soccer players and anyone participating in regular physical activity. It can help improve performance, prevent injury and speed recovery from muscle and soft tissue soreness and the everyday aches and pains associated with sports. It is used before, during and after athletic events and as part of training. Sessions are designed specifically for the muscles stressed most during a sporting event. For runners, the muscles of the feet, legs, hips and low back are concentrated on the most. Each session is designed for the athlete’s sport of choice.

Sports Massage involves applying specific, repetitive, massage pressure, strokes and techniques to the soft tissues. This has been linked with improved muscle flexibility, increased range of motion in the joints, and decreased muscle stiffness. Anyone participating in regular physical activity or sports can benefit from regular massage sessions as part of their health and wellness program.
