Sports Massage and You
What Is Sports Massage?
Did you know that a Sports Massage enhances your performance as an athlete? Sports Massage is all about maintenance and recovery for you and your athletic goals and performance!
--It speeds the removal of cellular wastes, especially lactic acid;
--It lessens your pain and spasms, especially pain from a heavy workout;
--It reduces your recovery time, allowing more workouts or better rest
time, whichever you need;
--It increases blood flow and nutrition to the muscles;
--It enhances your flexibility;
--It increases your power and performance.
This is not the luxuriating massage that you typically find on ships and spas, but is more intense, and designed to enhance your athletic abilities! Our aim is to help you to maximize the potential of your body so that you can perform to your best, in work, in sport or at rest.
Sports massage involves the use of deep massage, soft tissue manipulation techniques and exercise advice to reduce aches and pains whether caused by sport, injury or simply the stresses and strains of daily life.
