Sports Massage

Release muscle tension and restores balance to the musculoskeletal system

What is Sports Massage?

Sports Massage uses techniques for the specific benefit of all sports and exercise participants and for those with work and posture-related restrictions.

It releases muscle tension and restores balance to the musculoskeletal system, reducing strain and discomfort and encouraging the body to heal and repair any injuries sustained.

Sports massage covers the management, manipulation and rehabilitation of the soft tissues of the body, e.g. muscles, ligaments and tendons.
