Sports Massage provides a range of benefits. Your professionally qualified practitioner will use a variety of techniques to aid muscle and soft tissue regeneration.

Deep tissue therapy helps to break down adhesions, knots and scar tissue. Massage also stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation. The combined effect is the removal of waste products from the body and a reduction in stress, fatigue and injury.

Regular Sports Massage treatments provide enduring results. Rarely can a single session completely fix a problem. Over time you and your therapist will develop an understanding that will facilitate a program of treatment providing relief from every day aches, pains and stress.

Many athletes use Sports Massage to prevent injury. A professional therapist is able to detect and treat fatigued muscles and blockages. Advice is always offered on how to self-help. Regular treatment has been shown to improve physical performance and mobility. Massage can accelerate the body's own restorative function, which allows an athlete to train harder, more often.

Following Injury, a professionally qualified Sports Massage practitioner is able to work as part of an integrated team comprising consultants and physiotherapists. This will insure the individual is able to return to activity in the quickest time

Sports Massage is not for the sole advantage of competitive athletes. Everybody can benefit from a regular deep tissue massage. Symptoms of stress and fatigue can lie dormant until chronic problems ensue. Migraines, pins and needles and feeling tired can indicate accumulating stresses that are easily reduced using massage.
