What is Sports Massage?
Sports massage can include firmer massage, compression and targeted work, but every session should be adapted to your training schedule and comfort rather than following a single routine.
What happens during the session?
Tell the therapist what activity you do, what you trained recently and which areas feel most worked. The appointment can then prioritise legs, hips, back, shoulders or another relevant region.
Pressure
Usually medium-firm, adapted by area and training context.
Session length
60 minutes is suitable for targeted recovery; 90 minutes allows broader work across several muscle groups.
After your appointment
Plan intense training sensibly around the appointment and discuss recent injuries or medical concerns with an appropriate healthcare professional before booking massage.
