Sports Massage
Sports massage is a sophisticated hands on deep tissue type treatment that
combines the use of a variety of well proven massage and manipulative
techniques to manage soft tissue (i.e. muscle, tendon, ligament and
fascia). Sports massage can assist in the prevention of or recovery from
injury and in the restoration of soft tissue function thus allowing you to
maintain a healthy body. Sports massage used in conjunction with more
advanced myo-fascial and structural integration techniques can assist in
correcting posture and balance.
For sporting or other activity massage can be used to stimulate blood
circulation providing oxygen and nurture to muscle more quickly. Sports
massage can also be used to stimulate or calm to suit the individual or
the sport in which they participate. By concurrent stimulation of the
veinous and lymphatic systems massage assists in disposal of metabolic and
other waste resulting from activity and injury thereby reducing recovery
periods.
