What is Sports Massage?

Sports massage is a form of deep-tissue massage originally developed to help improve the performance of athletes and treat their injuries. Since then it has become the de facto massage style for treating most muscular problems and is widely used by physiotherapists, osteopaths and sports therapists alike.

It uses a variety of soft-tissue manipulation techniques that work to release trigger points deep into the muscles. This helps stretch and loosen tight, overworked, injured muscle fibres and other soft tissue such as fascia.

Sports Massage FAQs

Still have questions? Call us for a quick chat.

Loose comfortable sportswear is ideal, or anything that can be removed or easily rearranged. For hygiene reasons, we’d prefer it if you avoid having a sports massage straight after a workout or while wearing dirty work clothes.

It might, but it’s a bit of a myth that a massage must be painful to be beneficial.

Yes. It doesn’t matter if you did it while exercising, sneezing or just sitting at your desk.

Sports massage was developed to treat athletes based on scientific theory and reasoning, and as such, it can be applied to injuries of a similar nature, regardless of cause.

It depends on the severity of the problem, but we like to get on with the treatment as soon as possible.

If we can’t help, we’ll help you find someone who can.
