Sports massage is a special form of massage that works on teh soft tissues (muscles, ligaments and tendons) by improving circulation and lymph flow. Its main aim is to restore biomechanical balance by reducing muscle tension, swelling and fatigue, improving flexibility and preventing injuries.
Remedial massage uses specific deep tissue and mobilisation techniques to effectively treat injuries – both past and present. It helps to break down scar tissue, remove the build up of toxins and it releases and realigns soft tissues. These factors all reduce the chance of repeat injuries. Remedial Massage will also encourage and support the body’s own healing and repair systems.
