How often should I have a sports massage?

It depends on your individual situation, but regular sports massages are often recommended to help your muscles to recover, to keep your body in its best condition and to try to prevent injury and a build up of issues.

Is sports massage only for athletes?

Sports massage, incorporating deep tissue massage and deep tissue therapy, is an effective treatment for everyone, not just athletes. It can help all kinds of people for all kinds of reasons.

Common questions

Everyone’s different; a sports massage may cause you some discomfort if your therapist is working on tight or injured muscles, but it shouldn’t be painful. Sports massages often involve deeper pressure and techniques to reduce muscle tension and encourage healing which can lead to temporary discomfort, but this is often described as ‘good pain’ that should give you relief from your symptoms and improved function.Throughout your treatment, your therapist will regularly check in with you and encourage you to give us your feedback regarding the pressure and your comfort level - we want your treatment to be effective but it should always be tolerable and we’re happy to adapt our techniques, and the level of pressure that’s being applied, to suit you.

Combine Sports Massage with rehabilitation

Sports Massage can be even more effective when combined with exercise rehabilitation, helping you to build strength, restore movement and reduce the chance of problems recurring.
