Sports massage is ideal for anyone involved in regular sports or if you suffer from muscular aches, pains or overuse injuries. It involves manipulation of the soft tissues helping to restore range of movement, flexibility, accelerates healing, breaks down scar tissue and improves the condition of the muscle fibres. If you are hampered by hamstring strain, ITB (illiotibial band) problems,Achilles tendon difficulties, sciatica, tight gluts or minor knee problems then sports massage is for you. Alternatively, if you sit at a desk and have neck and shoulder tension then sports massage can also be of great help to you.
Remedial massage improves the condition of the soft tissues and is less deep than a sports massage. Advanced massage techniques also include: neuromuscular technique (trigger points), soft tissue release, muscle energy techniques and myofascial release.
