Would Sports Massage benefit me?
Anyone can benefit from Sports Massage. The prime purpose of Sports Massage Therapy is to help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity. This physical activity does not only include playing sports. Many activities we do in our everyday life will cause problems including manual working, gardening and computer usage, to name a few. People in physically demanding jobs may develop many similar characteristics to sports injuries.
Those in not so physical jobs may also benefit as they can have stress which is occupational, emotional or postural related. Where minor injuries and strains occur, due to overexertion or overuse, sports massage can break them down quickly and effectively. It can help prevent those niggling injuries that so often get in the way of performance and achievement.
