Sports Massage can be considered an invaluable tool to the sports person in order to assist them as part of their overall training programme. Ideally it is a preventative tool that aims to ensure the athlete achieves the best results and avoids repetitive, or sudden, injuries. For event work the use of pre and post massage is also an important factor. Pre-event massage helps to warm the muscles and prepare them for action. It can also be used to calm nerves, remove any last minute nagging aches or simply to provide reassurance to give the athlete a possible psychological boost. Post-event massage can aid the bodies' recovery process and relieve tension and strain in tired muscles to allow the athlete to return to training quicker for the next event.
However Sports Massage is not just reserved for the sporty types amongst us. Any of us can suffer from injuries that are either due to a specific event, like straining your leg after playing football in the garden with the children, or are the result of longer term repetitive actions, like that nagging pain in your shoulders and neck because you work on a computer all day. Also very relevant for musicians, hairdressers and drivers, in fact these techniques can be used for most people.
Sports Massage can help to identify, assess and treat muscular problems with specific techniques aimed at maintaining or restoring muscle function and balance. We can then suggest ways to help you to avoid these problems in the future.
Whatever your situation, why not speak to us to see how we can help you with whatever you want to achieve.
Recommendation
One of the causes of knee / leg problems that we see in Sports Therapy is badly fitted footwear.
