60 Minute Sports Massage

Service Description

Sports massage is a soft tissue manual therapy that works deep into the muscles and connective tissues of the body, mainly focussing on the specific problematic areas. This type of massage isn't just for athletes, any one who has suffered an injury, had surgery and has muscle stiffness and tension as a result can benefit from such a massage. Using techniques such as deep tissue therapy, myofascial release, trigger point therapy and stretching techniques, it aims at improving circulation, flexibility, muscle soreness and pain, as well as helping to break down scar tissue as a result of injury. I also use warm bamboo as part of this treatment, this allows me to get deeper into the muscle and the added heat increases the benefits of sports massage. An hour is usually enough to cover any issues in either the upper body or lower body, for example back, neck and shoulders or back and legs. Each appointment will include a short discussion about your issues and an assessment, followed by a massage.
