Not just for athletes or those who participate in sport.

​

Sport massage is a form of soft tissue work that uses a number of different techniques to relieve muscular tension and pain. The techniques used include: effleurage, petrissage, tapotement, trigger point therapy, muscle energy technique (MET), soft tissue release, myofascial release, and stretch variations.

​

Sport massage is different to other massages, as it tends to be performed with more pressure, and has a particular outcome in mind rather than, say, relaxation. It considers the impact of activities on your body's muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia.

​
