Who needs Sports Massage
Many sports and fitness enthusiasts rely on regular massage
as an important part of their health and training routine.
This is because an area of chronic tension can impair performance
and even lead to injury when stressed. Massage using sports
specific techniques can assist with relieving tight and restricted
areas preventing the onset of chronic pain and restricted movement.
Massage will relieve stresses that may impair your body alignment
and assist in effective muscle and joint function throughout your
body.
Massage for Sports Injuries
An injury to anyone who loves to be active is more than just
pain and frustration. When sport is your passion, an
injury can be emotionally devastating.
A variety of massage techniques can help with injuries such
as tendinitis, muscle strains and ligament sprains. As massage
increases circulation, it can also reduce swelling and increase
the supply of nutrients needed for healing.
Your body repairs injuries with scar tissue consisting of tightly
matted fibres of collagen. These fibres tear and retear easily
making healing difficult and your range of motion painful and
restricted. Proper massage techniques can limit scar tissue
formation in new injuries and can reduce scar tissue around old
injuries. Your muscles can be restored to a pain free range of
movement.
