Sports Massage
Sports massage is a specialised form of massage designed to meet the needs of athletes and active individuals. It aims to prepare muscles for physical activity, promote recovery after training, and prevent injuries. Using specific techniques and deep pressure, muscles and tissues are worked on to enhance blood circulation and improve flexibility.
When is Sports Massage Used?
Before Sport: To activate muscles and improve circulation. It helps prepare the body for high levels of exertion, reduces the risk of injury, and enhances performance.
After Sport: To relax and loosen strained muscles. It aids in the removal of waste products such as lactic acid, reduces muscle tension, and accelerates recovery.
For Injuries: Supports the healing process and can contribute to faster regeneration by promoting cellular metabolism.
Benefits of Sports Massage
Improved Blood Circulation: Helps supply muscles with oxygen and essential nutrients.
Faster Recovery: Reduces muscle soreness and fatigue, enabling the body to be ready for new challenges more quickly.
Increased Flexibility and Mobility: Targeted treatment helps release adhesions in the tissue and improves muscle function.
Pain Relief: Particularly effective for muscle tension and overuse injuries.
Injury Prevention: Regular sports massages can reduce the risk of strains and muscle fibre tears by increasing resilience.
