What is Sports Massage Therapy

and Can it Help Me?

Sports massage therapy is the manual mobilisation of soft tissues using various massage and stretching techniques. It looks for imbalances with muscular development and posture and tries to relieve muscular tension, break down adhesions and reduce pain.

Treatment can help anyone who has muscular discomfort due to physically demanding lifestyles, work or hobbies. This could be driving a lot, training for a triathlon or even sitting at your computer all day long. All of these activities are demanding on the body.
