What is Sports Massage?

Sports massage offers targeted benefits for athletes and active individuals, including

accelerated muscle recovery, reduced delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), and increased flexibility. By using deep, targeted techniques, it improves circulation, breaks down scar tissue, increases range of motion, and aids in injury prevention and rehabilitation.

Benefits

Promoting muscle recovery and reducing soreness. “When the muscles don’t get enough oxygen during an aerobic workout, lactic acid can build up in tissues and cause pain,” says Glad. “Massage can help rid the body of lactic acid faster than it naturally would. Athletes find that massage delays the onset of muscle soreness after a workout.”
Helping to prevent injury. Sports massages can improve flexibility and range of motion to reduce the chance of injury. “We also ensure your muscles are working properly by checking ‘firing patterns,’ or motor neuron signals sent to activate and contract muscles,” says Glad.
Helping to heal current injuries. Sports massages improve circulation and stimulate blood flow to a certain area, promoting healing.
Lowering blood pressure, facilitating quality sleep and instilling a sense of calm. After a big game or workout, many athletes find it difficult to sleep. A sports massage can promote relaxation – and ease a busy mind, as many athletes can experience sports-related anxiety and stress.
