Frequently Asked Questions

What is a sports massage?
Sports massage is a deeper massage, which repairs muscle fibres and reduces muscular knots. This reduces postural problems and muscular tension. It also clears the muscle cells of waste products from exercise, increasing recovery and performance. |

|
|
Who should have a sports massage? |
|
Anyone with tired or tight muscles from exercise, or people who are regularly physically active. Regular exercise can lead to muscular problems and injury as muscles become shortened and flexibilty decreases. Non-sports people can have a sports massage for relaxation, stress relief, or to reduce posture tightness. |
|
|
|
Where is the massage done? |
|
The massage coach is set up wherever has good space within your house. Clients can listen to music, watch TV, or relax in silence. |
|
|
|
How will I feel after treatment? |
|
The relaxation massage will make you feel calm and refreshed. While the deep tissue massage may leave the area treated feeling slightly tender directly after (because the muscle is being correctly manipulated), but the next day you will experience reduced tension and tightness. |
|
|
|
What should I do after treatment? |
|
The best thing for the body after a sports massage is to stretch the tight muscle/s, and drink some water to flush out the waste products from the body. |
|
|
|
How often should I have a massage? |
|
As little or as often as you wish. Tight muscles may require longer attention though. People who exercise regularly should receive a sports massage to keep the muscles healthy, and to avoid potential long-term injuries from muscle shortening. |

|
Is there any reason why I shouldn't have treatment? |
|
There are a few contradications, which I will check with you before hand (e.g. allergies/medical history). A sports massage helps the muscular system, however if you have a muscular strain in the early stages of injury then the body needs time to recover before any treatment to aid recovery. If you have any further questions please do not hesistate to contact me by phone or e-mail. |
