What to Expect
A thorough evaluation of your posture to identify misalignments, muscle imbalances, and movement restrictions that may be causing discomfort or limiting mobility. These insights help your therapist create a targeted treatment plan to improve posture, relieve pain, and enhance overall movement.
Before Event Sports Massage
A pre-event sports massage is designed to prepare the body for physical activity by increasing circulation, reducing muscle stiffness, and enhancing flexibility. Performed 15-45 minutes before activity to stimulate muscles. This helps:
- Uses fast, rhythmic, and dynamic techniques to increase blood flow.
- Focuses on warming up muscles and reducing stiffness.
- Helps prevent injuries by improving mobility and tissue elasticity.
- Involves light stretching and mobilization techniques to activate the muscles.
After Event Sports Massage
A post-event sports massage is aimed at aiding muscle recovery, reducing soreness, and promoting relaxation after intense activity. Conducted 30 minutes to 24 hours after exercise to assist recovery. Uses slow, deep, and relaxing techniques to release tension. This helps:
- Flush out metabolic waste (e.g., lactic acid) and reduce inflammation.
- Incorporates gentle stretching to promote flexibility and ease muscle tightness.
- Aids in reducing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and speeds up recovery.
- Alleviates muscle fatigue, cramps, and stiffness.
