What Is Sports Massage?
Sports massage is a customized form of massage therapy for athletes,
active adults, and people who regularly participate in physical
activity. The session can focus on muscles and areas that are
particularly affected by training, exercise, repetitive movement,
or an active lifestyle.
Sports massage does not have to follow the same routine for every
client. Pressure, techniques, treatment areas, and session focus
can be adjusted based on your activity, current muscle tension,
recovery goals, and comfort level.
Benefits of Sports Massage
- Supports comfortable movement and flexibility
- Helps reduce muscle tension and post-activity tightness
- Supports recovery after workouts, training, or physical activity
- Provides focused attention to muscles used during your activities
- Supports mobility during an active lifestyle
- Can be customized around your training and recovery goals
Who Is Sports Massage For?
Sports massage may be a good fit for runners, cyclists, weight
lifters, recreational athletes, fitness enthusiasts, gym-goers,
and other active individuals. It can also be useful for people
whose work or daily activities involve frequent physical movement.
You do not need to compete in organized sports to benefit from a
sports-focused massage. The session can simply be tailored to the
physical activities you regularly participate in and the areas that
need attention.
Sports Massage Before or After Physical Activity
The focus of a sports massage can vary depending on when you schedule
your session. Some clients seek massage as part of their recovery
routine after workouts or athletic activity, while others want
focused work on areas of muscle tension while maintaining an active
lifestyle.
Your therapist can discuss your activity, recent training, areas of
tightness, and goals before the session so the massage can be adapted
appropriately.
Sports Massage vs. Deep Tissue Massage
Sports massage and deep tissue massage can both involve focused work
on areas of muscle tension, but they serve somewhat different
purposes. Sports massage is generally oriented toward active
individuals and can be customized around training, physical
activity, recovery, and mobility.
Deep tissue massage generally places more emphasis on persistent
or broader areas of muscular tightness. The two approaches can also
overlap during a customized session when appropriate.
