Sports Massage / Injuries Massage

Sports massage is a specialized form of massage therapy for people participating in athletic activity or who work out often. It is used to help the body prepare for the burden of such activities, to prevent injuries, and to help the body recover from workouts. Sports massage can be applied before the event, after the event, and as a maintaining treatment.

Sports massage makes use of a combination of different stroke techniques. It is generally applied with faster strokes than e.g. relaxation massage, and uses facilitated streching methods to loosen the muscles and increase flexibility.
