Sports Therapy
Sports therapy is a form of deep tissue massage that targets muscles and connective tissue under stress from repetitive movement, intensive training, or high-impact sports. It combines advanced techniques to reduce tightness, break down scar tissue, improve flexibility, and promote blood flow for faster recovery.
​
Whether you’re training for a marathon or recovering from a gym injury, sports therapy is tailored to your needs and performance goals.
Common Sports Injuries
Hamstring & Calf strains
Shin splints
Lower back pain & stiffness
Plantar Fasciitis
How It Works
Sports therapy isn’t just a luxury—it’s backed by science and biomechanics. When your body undergoes physical stress from training, competition, or repetitive motion, it develops microtears, inflammation, and muscular imbalances. If left unaddressed, this can lead to stiffness, pain, and long-term injuries.
Improves oxygen & blood flow
Stimulates blood flow to deliver oxygen and nutrients, speeding up muscle recovery and flushing out toxins like lactic acid.
Reduces inflammation
Activates the lymphatic system to decrease swelling, support tissue healing, and reduce post-exercise soreness (DOMS).
Breaks down scar tissue
Deep tissue techniques release adhesions and scar tissue, improving flexibility and restoring full range of motion.
Enhances muscle activation
Improves neuromuscular function and proprioception, helping muscles fire more efficiently and reduces injury risk.
Improves mental focus
Encourages relaxation, reduces anxiety, and boosts serotonin—helping you stay sharp, calm, and competition-ready.
Calms nervous system
Promotes parasympathetic activity to reduce cortisol (stress hormone) and support faster, more restful recovery.
