Sports Massage
Sports massage is a highly specialised form of massage involving the manipulation of soft tissue to benefit a person engaged in regular physical activity. Sports massage is effective both as a treatment, and as a preventative measure.
Today sports massage is used by most professional sportspeople to help avoid injury and improve performance – If you watch carefully, you’ll often see sports massage therapists working on members of your favourite team during a game. Sports massage is a more advanced approach to massage and therefore should be performed by a qualified sports massage therapist.

Sports massage is especially useful for those involved in physical activity, but the techniques used are also very useful in treating injuries.
Sports massage has many benefits. When performed by a trained sports masseuse, sports massage can ease muscle pain and tension, speed recovery from injury, relive back pain and improve posture and mobility. Massage has also been shown to help improve blood and lymphatic circulation and many clients report positive psychological effects too!
What to expect
Sports massage can last between 30 minutes and an hour and can be targeted at any specific issues you have. We have diagnostic facilities and sports therapists at our clinic who are also available to assist when dealing with injuries. Most clients find benefit from sports massage very quickly, although if you are seeking treatment for a strain or injury, some soreness after massage is to be expected.
