SPORTS MASSAGE
Sports Massage at The Recovery Studio is combined with numerous techniques such as Acupuncture, Soft Tissue Release, Muscle Energy Techniques, and Kinesio Taping to provide a comprehensive treatment to alleviate your pain.
WHY DO WE NEED SPORTS MASSAGE?
Using a range of advanced massage techniques, we can address pain or muscle dysfunction, and excel the preparation and recovery from sport and daily activities. With the use of soft tissue manipulation, kinesio taping and acupuncture, we can restore muscle function and facilitate improved ranges of movement and postural realignment.
Benefits of massage also include;
-
Improved blood circulation for accelerated healing and recovery
-
Improved tissue elasticity and range of movement
-
Enhanced autonomic function, motor control and reduced risk of injury recurrence
-
Psychological and physical relaxation
Kinesio Taping
Kinesio taping is a rehabilitative taping technique that provides support and stability to muscles and joints. Taping has numerous benefits such as decreasing inflammation and facilitating lymphatic drainage to alleviate pain and provide extended soft tissue manipulation following treatment.
Acupuncture for Sports Injuries
Acupuncture helps to release tight muscles and trigger points, restoring the body's balance and energy levels, promoting healing and accelerating recovery time. With client consent, acupuncture may be used in conjunction with other advanced soft tissue therapy techniques .
What To Expect
On initial consultation, the source of the pain and underlying musculoskeletal dysfunction will be explored. This may include lifestyle and medical based questionnaires, as well as a detailed postural and range of movement assessment.
The soft tissue treatment will be individually tailored based on the specific issues presented. These can include a range of advanced sports massage techniques, acupuncture or taping and may require the patient to continue prescribed self-remedial exercises between treatments.
