Sports Massage – Area Specific
(45 minutes)
Sports massage is ideal for anyone seeking treatment for injuries or repetitive strains that have developed over time in specific soft tissue, fascia, and muscle areas. This targeted approach focuses on the body parts that are healing or need relief.
Sports massage involves the manipulation of soft tissue, benefiting individuals who engage in regular physical activity. Originally developed to help athletes prevent and recover from injuries, sports massage is now widely used by both athletes and non-athletes to alleviate the effects of physical injury. The technique includes fast-paced massaging, stretching, and other methods to promote healing.
This method can be utilized as a pre-workout stretch, tailored to prepare the muscles before physical activity, or as a post-workout massage designed to aid muscle recovery and reduce soreness.

Deep tissue massage is the ideal choice for relief from general pain and tension. Unlike treatments that focus on a specific body part, this technique is administered as a full-body treatment, providing comprehensive relief.
Deep tissue massage is particularly effective for treating muscular issues caused by strains or sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using deep strokes to target the deeper layers of muscles and tissues. This technique helps break down scar tissue from previous injuries and reduces muscle tension in specific areas. The firm pressure used in deep tissue massage effectively addresses muscle and tendon injuries, alleviating pain and stiffness in major muscle groups and joints.
