Sports Massage Therapy maintain muscles at the optimum length, helps to avoid injuries and increases the flexibility of the muscle tissue.

As an athlete, you can include massage in your regular training to increase muscle performance and have greater fitness results.  

Because pain and injury are the most common factors that prevents athletes from reaching their full potential, a regular massage treatment will help the muscles to lower the risk of different soft tissues and associated overuse injuries.

Causes of Sports Injuries in Training

Over-Training

Doing an huge amount of effort and training will fatique the muscles and can cause damage. It can happen during training or in competition when the athlete push himself too much and the risk of over-exerting occur real fast. An injury or muscles dysfunction can occur if the training is too frequent and there is no enough time in between to fully recover.

Sports Massage Treatments will assist you to increase the performance and keep the muscles in good condition.

SPORT EVENTS
OR
GROUPS

Are you thinking about bringing the advanced sports massage treatments to an event you are holding or attend?

​

Group sessions , sport events and massage packages are also available.

I use Advanced Sports Massage Techniques to focus on conditions such as chronic muscle pain, limited mobility, repetitive strain injury, postural dysfunctions, and upper & lower back, neck & shoulders, or leg pain. 

BENEFITS

  • increase joint mobility by reducing any thickening of the connective tissue and helping to release restrictions in the fascia

  • free adhesions, break down scar tissue and decrease inflammation, as a result it can help to restore range of motion to stiff joints 

  • improves muscle tone and balance, reducing the physical stress placed on bones and joints.

  • relieves muscular tightness, stiffness, spasms and restrictions in the muscle tissue.

  • it increases flexibility in the muscles due to muscular relaxation, increases blood circulation bringing more oxygen and nutrients into the tissue to reduce muscle fatigue and soreness.

  • the elasticity of muscles is improved because of the tissue manipulation, stretches the fibres and separate the muscle bundles

  • massage stimulates the sensory receptors - this can either stimulate or soothe nerves depending on the techniques used.

  • helps to reduce pain by the release of endorphins, known as the body’s own mood-lifting and pain-relieving hormones

PROCESS

I will conduct a subjective and objective assessment to identify if there is any pre-existing condition, or if there is muscles imbalance (short/tight muscles and short/length muscles), restrictions in the joints, postural dysfunctions.

 

For Sports Massage treatments I use very little lotion as they provide a better grip of the muscle tissue, to increase the effectiveness of treatment and they are quickly absorbed by the skin. In the case of pre- or intra-events I use very little lotion or I go without because it can clog the pores in the skin making it difficult for the athlete to sweat or make the athlete slippery and uncomfortable and may interfere with performance

  • High or Low blood pressure

Treating Specific Injuries And Muscles Dysfunctions

  • To treat the affected area I will massage the muscles that cover up to 2 joints.

  • ​In order to provide the best possible treatment, every session will last 90 minutes, until we see a significant improvement and you are happy with the outcome.

  • Although there are chances to not fully treat a condition in just one session , I will do my very best to reduce the symptoms to minimum.

  • We can discuss and together we will create the best follow up treatments plan suitable for you to keep the muscles in the best functional condition.

  • Depending on the condition, every treatment will include the following techniques: massage, stretching, strengthening NMT, STR, MET, PNF. please check the TECHNIQUES I USE section on this page.

TECHNIQUES I USE

MUSCLE ENERGY TECHNIQUES ( MET )

MET is the use of an isometric contraction before subsequent stretching or movement of restricted tissues.

It is used to treat affected soft tissue or joint dysfunction, usually as part of a sequence of modalities, but sometimes alone.

Muscle Energy Techniques (METs) describes a broad class of manual therapy techniques directed at improving musculoskeletal function or joint function, and improving pain.
