What Is Sports Massage?
Sports massage is a type of massage therapy that is designed to relieve any tension and stress that have been caused by strenuous or repetitive movements.
It will fix soft tension imbalances and help those that take part in sports, but it is not exclusively for sports people; it can help anyone who is suffering from repetitive stress on the body.
Why Get a Sports Massage?
If you are feeling sore, in pain, have injuries, or are physically tired often, a sports massage can help relieve your tension.
Whether you partake in sports or not, a sports massage can improve your physical performance when exercising. This is, of course, useful for professional athletes, but it will also help non-athletes.
Many people choose to receive sports massages due to poor posture or repetitive movements at work that result in the same problems as playing sports. If you have become stiff from sitting at your desk at work and are suffering from back or neck pain or stiffness, you will benefit from a sports massage.
Sports massage can help with enhancing movement and performance; it also helps to aid muscle recovery and prevent injury in the future.
How a Sports Massage Can Help You
A sports massage can help heal you of injuries, aches, and pains, as well as provide rehabilitation for your shoulder, so you can get back to your mobile self and continue to play sports.
Treat your back, shoulder or neck pain. Each patient will be treated for their individual symptoms and problems, and you can be relieved of your pains and aches.
Reduce Pain
Tense muscles that are painful and damaged hold onto lactic acid and other waste products. A sports massage helps to get the fluids in your body moving again aiding recovery and helping your body release its natural endorphins
Relieve Tension
Sports massage warms and stretches the soft tissues in the muscles, which helps to combat muscle stiffness. This increases blood flow and helps with mobility, too.
Prevent Muscle Soreness
It is normal for muscles to feel sore after exercise. This is known as ‘delayed onset muscle soreness’ (DOMS). A sports massage can greatly help your muscles recover after working hard.
Good For You
Another way a sports massage can help you is by making you feel good. A targeted sports massage has positive effects on the body and mind. This can then have a positive impact on your recovery and performance too.
A sports massage will help you to release mood-enhancing chemicals, which will also help to reduce any anxieties too.

Many patients that have received regular sports massages have reported feeling the improvements and benefits that they bring. Receiving sports massages can ultimately result in getting back to exercising as soon as possible without delay from muscle soreness.
To regularly benefit from your sports massage, if you participate in sports multiple times a week, a massage every 2-4 weeks is recommended. This will help you to keep your body in optimum condition and keep your muscles energised.
What to Expect From a Sports Massage
Different treatments can be made when coming for a sports therapy appointment. Manual massage is often used with the help of cream or oil on the affected area.
The professional sports massage therapist will use various muscle energy techniques and active stretching to relieve the tension and stress in the muscles. The massage itself can become uncomfortable at times because of its intensity and the pressure applied by the sports massage therapist.
As well as the massage performed by your sports massage therapist, they can also give you other treatments such as resistance training exercises, and various stretches to help with recovery, rehabilitation, and mobility. They can go through these exercises and stretches with you, and you may be given some to do within your own time, so many times a day or week.
