Sports Massage is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue that are caused from repetitive and strenuous physical activity and trauma. The application of sports massage, prior to and after exercise, may enhance performance, aid recovery and prevent injury.
Swedish Massage involves working the soft tissue of the body, to ease day-to-day stresses and muscular tension, and promote relaxation. It helps to increase delivery of blood and oxygen to the treated areas and can also be used in support of other therapies
Myofascial release techniques focus on stretching the connective tissues (fascia) surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the body. Myofascial massage techniques involve the therapist applying forces in opposing directions, which relaxes the tissues. It can help ease pain and increase mobility in the tissues and surrounding muscles.
Deep transverse friction massage (DTFM) is a physical therapy technique often used to reduce damage and scarring caused by inflammation. It increases blood flow to the joint, which facilitates healing of the tendon by increasing the supply of oxygen transported to the injury.
