How does massage work?
Massage improves blood and lymph circulation, muscle relaxation and general relaxation. These, in turn, leads to deactivation of painful points and faster healing of tissues. It all adds up to relief from soreness and stiffness, better flexibility, and less potential for future injury or illnes.
Does sports massage therapy hurt?
I will only use the amount of pressure that you feel happy with and closely monitor your comfort levels throughout the treatment. In general lighter pressure is used for relaxation and pain relief, deeper tissue techniques are used to break down scar tissue and adhesions.
"Very good firm deep tissue massage. Not only relaxing, but useful corrective techniques were applied to ease long-standing tensions, which have really made a difference!" Roberta Wilson, 43.
