To treat the effects of tight muscles and muscular strain, a sports massage employs a combination of deep tissue massage and Swedish massage.

It may be customized to be utilized as a pre-workout stretch and warm-up opportunity, or as a post-workout massage to decrease stiffness and enhance flexibility. Massage is commonly used to release tension, but it may also be used as a warm-up for manipulative treatments of the spine or peripheral joints.

The relief of stiffness and discomfort is one of the primary goals of sports massage. Something which happens after a particularly strenuous workout. Nonetheless, this isn’t the only situation in which people experience muscle stiffness or discomfort. Long hours of sitting, bad posture, injuries, and inactivity are all contributors to these discomforts.

Benefits of Sports massage:

• Reduced muscle tension, soreness, and discomfort.
• Improved performance due to increased range of motion.
• Reduced muscular stiffness and pain.
• Reduced post-injury healing time.
• Relaxation levels are higher, while physical and psychological stress levels are lower.
• Aids in the quantity and quality of sleep.
• Relieved headaches.

Deep tissue massage centers on realigning the deeper layers of connective and muscle tissue. It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the tense areas, either following or going across the fiber’s of the muscles, tendons and fascia. It is particularly helpful for continually tight and contracted areas such as stiff necks, low back tightness, and sore shoulders.

Deep tissue massage uses many of the same movements and techniques as a more classic superficial massage. The difference is that the pressure will generally be more intense, and concentrated on areas of tension and pain. The strokes are the same, but the movement is slower and deeper. 

Deep tissue has been found to improve muscle function and range of motion, break up scar tissue and adhesions, and decrease pain. It is thought that when muscles are tensed, they block oxygen and nutrients, leading to inflammation that builds up toxins in the muscle tissue.  A deep tissue massage may help loosen muscle tissues, release toxins from muscles and get blood and oxygen circulating properly. Because many toxins are released, it is recommended to drink plenty of water after a deep tissue session to help eliminate these toxins from the body.

Goals of Deep Tissue Massage:

1. Reduce pain.
2. Improve posture.
3. Increase flexibility and perception of looseness.
4. Improve fluidity of movement.
5. Restore metabolic status of tissue.
