How:
Whether you are in pain or you just need to relax, whether you feel you need a good stretch or you just want to nod off after a long day, our massage therapists use a tailored approach using a deep but controlled pressure, that promotes a more long term benefit.
Sports massage stimulates lymph fluid and blood circulation to break down ‘knots’ in the muscles. This stretches the muscles to give a greater range of motion. Sports massage encourages blood flow circulation which increases oxygen to the muscles which helps with recovery.
It helps to prevent injury by stretching the tissues and realigning the muscles fibres which optimise their function and improve the range of movement.
Getting regular massages will keep the tissues loose, helping to reduce the development of scar tissue, injury and therefore pain.
Sports massage helps to optimise muscle health, improving posture, muscle function and daily performance.

Your therapist will chat through your medical history and any current or previous injuries. They might do a quick physical assessment if they think it’s necessary, prior to starting your sports massage.
