Sports Massage Keighley
Tailored movements and techniques that are used to try to help an athlete’s body achieve maximum performance and physical conditioning, as well as decreasing chance of injury and pain and helping with quicker recovery. Unlike deep tissue massage, which is usually administered across the whole body, sports massage pinpoints specific areas that tend to be problematic or certain muscle groups that are tight or stressed from repetitive movements.
Sports massage is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue which can be caused from repetitive and strenuous physical activity and trauma. The application of sports massage, prior to and after exercise, can often enhance performance, helping to aid recovery and prevent injury.
A typical sports massage session is specifically tailored to an individual’s needs. Some elements of sports massage are used in other physical therapy settings and to treat conditions outside of sports, including things such as carpal tunnel syndrome.
