Treatments
Commonly used to release tension and stiffness in the body, deep tissue sports massage will increase range of movement around a joint, enhance posture and improve flexibility.
Sports massage is a deep form of massage that involves the manipulation of the soft tissues. Don’t be misled by the name; it can help most people, no matter what your activity level is. It is designed to correct existing issues with the muscles, (and in turn can help the skeletal system) that can be caused by repetitive actions, strenuous activity, trauma and imbalances.
Techniques used in this therapy can include Swedish and Acupressure, but include deeper penetrating moves and stretches such as frictions, trigger point work and soft tissue release.
Sports massage can also be administered before and after exercise, to help enhance performance, prevent injury and allow the muscles to repair quicker…….
What it helps
When you arrive at our clinic you will be welcomed by one of our friendly Therapists.
You will be made to feel as comfortable as possible and will be asked a series of questions so the Therapist can gain an understanding of the reason for your visit. There will be a brief assessment to establish any areas of pain and discomfort.
The Therapist will then advise on which items of clothing you need to remove, leave the room whilst you get changed and will give you towels with which to drape yourself.
Your Therapist will return to begin the treatment and will continually update you on what they are doing and why. All Therapists are used to working and adapting the depth of pressure to each client’s individual tolerance level, so you shouldn’t experience too much discomfort.
During the treatment the Therapist will be starting to formulate a plan of how we can continue to help you moving forward.
At the end of each session you will be given an update on how your body seems to have reacted to the treatment and you will be given advice on how you can manage any discomfort once you leave the clinic. You may feel slightly sore, tender and a little lethargic post-treatment, all of which can be totally normal.
Despite this, we can guarantee that you will feel better within 1-2 days and will be already considering returning for further treatment.
In order for the client to build a professional relationship with each Therapist and to get continuity with each treatment, we recommend you try and see the same Therapist next time. However, if this is not possible then each Therapist has access to all client information so they will be fully informed on your history prior to meeting you.
