Sports Massage
If you have an injury or stiffness from training or exercise, a specialized sports massage can help. These massages also prevent problems by preparing muscles for exercise and helping them relax afterward.
This therapy is ideal for those training for competitive events or regularly doing high-impact exercise. It combines deep tissue massage, effleurage, myofascial strokes, and trigger point targeting to invigorate your muscles.
Our sports massage therapy can be customized for any sport or event. Our experienced therapists work with various sports injuries, from marathons and cycling to elite and professional athletes.
Deep Tissue Massage
A deep tissue massage soothes stiff, tight, and aching muscles, instantly releasing pain and tension. The pressure used in a deep tissue massage is similar to a Swedish massage but goes deeper to release chronic muscle tension. It works into your muscles, fascial system, and connective tissue to break down unwanted collagenous bonds, realign fibers, and soothe pain.
This massage technique helps break down muscle knots, reduce pain in sore areas, and improve tissue quality. This enhances nerve, fascia, and muscle signaling, which alleviates pain, increases joint movement range, and improves posture. Plus, it feels great!
A deep tissue massage benefits everyone. It helps alleviate head and neck pain from long hours at a desk, relieve stress, combat overuse injuries, remove body tension, increase flexibility, and prevent injuries.
Some may experience slight discomfort during a deep tissue massage due to the slow, deep movements focusing on tension areas. Inform your therapist if it hurts or feels uncomfortable. You might feel some stiffness the next day, but it usually subsides within a day.
Remedial Massage
Remedial massages aim to balance the length, tone, and tension of muscles and tendons. This helps restore the correct position of bones, increase blood flow, and heal existing injuries. It can also improve headaches, abdominal pain, lower back pain, and sciatic pain.
If you need to relieve body tension, especially in the neck and back areas, a remedial massage can help. This massage is similar to a deep tissue massage but can be slightly lighter or a combination of techniques to ease stress and pain. The result is a soothing, relaxing experience that can profoundly impact, allowing patients to release deep-seated tension and stress.
