Treatment Details
Purpose
The primary goals of a sports massage are to enhance athletic performance, prevent injuries, and facilitate recovery after intense physical activities. By optimizing muscle function and flexibility, sports massages help athletes perform at their best while minimizing the risk of injuries. Additionally, these massages aid in faster recovery by reducing muscle soreness and fatigue.
Timing and Application
The timing and application of sports massages vary based on needs. Pre-event massages prepare muscles with stimulating techniques, while post-event massages focus on reducing soreness and aiding recovery with slower strokes. Maintenance massages are regular sessions for peak condition and injury prevention, and rehabilitation massages help recover from injuries by reducing scar tissue and improving mobility.
Duration and Frequency
Sessions typically last between 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the athlete’s needs and goals. Regular maintenance massages are recommended, especially during intense training periods, to ensure ongoing benefits and optimal performance.
Benefits
Sports massages improve circulation, increase flexibility, reduce muscle tension, enhance mental relaxation, and remove toxins. Increased blood flow delivers more oxygen and nutrients to muscles. Relaxed muscles and joints enhance flexibility and reduce injury risk. They also alleviate muscle soreness and stiffness, aiding faster recovery. Mental relaxation improves focus and clarity, and the removal of toxins contributes to overall well-being.
Customisation and Individualisation
Each sports massage is tailored to the athlete’s specific needs, considering their sport, activity level, and muscular issues. This personalised approach ensures the massage effectively addresses the athlete's unique requirements, maximising benefits.
