Sports massage is great for athletes. This treatment will help prepare your body for a sporting event or workout and/or help cool down and relax tired fatigued muscle tissues following a workout. Comfortable clothing such as workout shorts and sports bras are recommended for this service. This massage is upbeat and not for relaxation.

All massage professionals have their own style of techniques they apply to various massage modalities which, vary per professional and may include the following:

⦁ Effleurage: Gliding strokes with the palms, thumbs and/or fingertips
⦁ Petrissage: Kneading movements with the hands, thumbs and/or fingers
⦁ Friction: Circular pressures with the palms of hands, thumbs and/or fingers
⦁ Vibration: Oscillatory movements that shake or vibrate the body
⦁ Percussion: Brisk hacking or tapping
⦁ Passive and active movements: Bending and stretching

If at any time you start to feel any discomfort or pain, please inform your therapist so another approach can be taken.

Sports massage is beneficial for increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, decreasing toxins in the muscle tissues, improving circulation, and increases flexibility while easing tension and metal stress. A sports massage promotes an overall sense of relaxation throughout the body and may also help invigorate the body and promote a sense of overall well-being.

An average sports massage can vary from 20 to 60 minutes. The session is usually performed on a comfortable massage table during an event.
