What is Sport and Remedial Massage?

Sport & Remedial Massage is not just for athletes, but also for people who suffer from muscle tension due to work load or poor posture. Massage can help to relax overused muscle tissue and speed up the healing process of injuries. It can reduce stress levels and allows the body and mind to come back to its original, relaxed state.

Sport massage like the classic massage can be very stimulating. Using deep stroke techniques causes the pores in tissue membranes to open, enabling fluids and nutrients to pass through. It helps to increase blood circulation and remove muscle wastage. Massage has the potential to speed up recovery of the affected muscles.
