PERSONALIZED HANDS-ON CARE

What distinguishes this massage
Sports massage
- Care focus
- Care around training, muscular soreness and comfortable movement.
- Process & comfort
- Plan the session around recent training and exercise timing; adjust pressure to current sensitivity.
About this massage
You do not need to be a competitive athlete to discuss sports massage. Bring information about your usual activity, recent changes in training load, and any injury or rehabilitation instructions so that the session addresses an appropriate recovery goal.
Conditions and care goals
Discuss the following concerns with your practitioner when planning treatment areas and everyday activity goals:
- Delayed-onset muscle soreness after unfamiliar or demanding exercise.
- Temporary muscular tightness or reduced comfortable flexibility after activity.
- Muscular soreness during a change in training load, when assessment supports hands-on care.
Your session and feedback
Agree on the timing of the session in relation to exercise and identify the areas that feel sore or restricted. Pressure and duration should suit your current sensitivity. Your recovery plan may also involve sleep, gradual loading and appropriate rehabilitation.
