Sports Massage Therapy

Service Description

What is sports massage? Sports massage is used to help to prevent injuries, to prepare the body for athletic activity as well as to maintain it's optimal condition. This is an adaptable treatment that has three basic forms: ~ Pre-event massage; used to prevent injury by warming up and stretching the muscles, as well as promoting blood and nutrient flow which ensures optimal flexibility and performance. ~ Post-event massage; used to reduce swelling caused by microtraumas and possible minor strains as well as to maintain flexibility, promote blood flow and help to remove lactic acid. Importantly recovery time is reduced. ~ Maintenance massage; helps reduce the swelling caused by micro-traumas. It loosens tired, stiff muscles and helps to maintain flexibility. This massage also promotes blood flow to the muscles which removes lactic acid and waste build-up and reduces cramping. In addition, post-event massage helps speed the athlete's recovery time and alleviates usual pulls, strains, and soreness.
