Massage Therapy explained
We provide the highest quality massage therapies of all kinds so that you achieve maximum outcomes every time.

Sports massage utilise techniques from various forms of massage therapy. The difference is that the therapist has an in depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology and and understanding of how exercise effects the body on many different levels. They also have knowledge about specific effects of different sports upon the soft tissue structures of the body. Using these 2 key areas of knowledge the therpist can then apply techniques specifically suited to each individual athlete.
Most sports massage is a deep form of massage that can sometimes be painful because it is necessary to work deep into the structures of the body to effect change. Although sports massage is the best choice for athletes it can also be used by everyday people for everyday physical problems and complaints. The reason for this is that the treatments are designed to address all types of difficult physical conditions, maintain the body in a pain free balanced state, and encourage optimum length, function, mobility and flexibility of soft tissues in the body. This is something that all people need.

Massage, applied skillfully, is the most effective therapy for releasing muscle tension and restoring balance to the musculo-skeletal system. Received regularly this may help athletes prevent injuries, which might otherwise be caused by overuse. A constant build-up of tension in the muscles from regular activity may lead to stresses on joints, ligaments, tendons, as well as the muscles themselves.
Then muscle imbalances may develop and often go undiagnosed until they are serious enough to cause the athlete discomfort or impede performance. The skilled massage therapist will be able to detect variations in the soft tissues and by using the correct techniques, help the sports person maintain a much healthier physical state.
