Sports Massage

From runners to body builders to basketball players — all athletes alike can benefit from massage. In fact, it’s highly recommended that you get regular massages to avoid pain and prevent injuries. 

Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a professional athlete, sports massage plays an important role in keeping the muscle tissues healthy and from becoming too tight.  It will increase your flexibility and range or motion, which in turn will decrease any chronic soreness and lessen your chances of injury, like a sprain or tearing of the muscle tissue, which can take you out of the game for quite some time.

When you come in for a sports massage, your therapist will discuss your individual needs with you in order to tailor your massage to the muscles you’re working.

Runners for example, can often benefit from Myofascial Release (or MFR) which is a type of soft tissue therapy that can treat skeletal muscle immobility and pain often experienced in the lateral(outer) areas of their legs.

On the other hand, a body builder will benefit from deep tissue massage in order to keep all their muscles aligned and maintain a symmetrical balance on either side of their body.  This increase their range of motion, keeps them ready for the next workout, and helps them recover faster from each workout.
