What is special about sports massage as opposed to other types of massage?

Some injuries are caused by overuse of a particular muscle. Overuse injuries often result in sore, painful and inflamed muscles. Sports massage will reduce the likelihood of the muscle becoming overused in the first place. It will reduce the initial inflammation that leads to an overuse injury.

There are many forms of massage, but a sports massage practitioner will focus on your needs as an athlete. If sports massage is received regularly and applied skilfully it is a powerful aid to injury prevention.

Sports massage releases muscle tension and restores muscle balance to the musculo-skeletal system. Muscular tension leads to stress on ligaments and tendons as well as to the muscle itself.

A massage practitioner can detect variations in the soft tissues and correct muscle imbalances before they become serious enough to cause discomfort or impede your performance.

A massage practitioner can detect variations in the soft tissues and correct muscle imbalances before they become serious enough to cause discomfort or impede your performance. They will use three main techniques:

Does your back hurt or feel stiff when you go from sitting to standing? This is often caused by restriction at the psoas muscles, aka the hip flexors. Stretching often isn't helpful, however, because they are often weak and tight. Stretching them just makes them tighter. The weakness is often caused by fibrotic build-up of the tissue over time. Breaking up the fibrotic tissue via techniques such as ART (Active Release Techniques) is a highly-effective and lasting solution.

Sensitive areas of tight muscle fibers can form in your muscles after injuries or overuse. These sensitive areas are called trigger points. A trigger point in a muscle can cause strain and pain throughout the muscle. When this pain persists and worsens, doctors call it myofascial pain syndrome.

Reflexology helps the body to re-balance and stimulates the removal of toxins. The body removes these through the excretory system and water plays an integral role in this process, so ensuring you drink plenty of fluids will aid the detoxification process.
