Advanced sports and remedial therapy
Sports and remedial therapy assists the recovery from injuries and provides maintenance for muscles to maximise performance.
It is great for those who enjoy sports to keep muscles supple and help with competition preparation as well as post event recovery. Focusing on problem areas, rather than the relaxation effect of Swedish Massage, it is common for a site of pain not to be the origin of an injury and so you may find that you are looking for pain relief from a wrist issue for example and discover that the full arm and shoulder is needing some work done.
Primarily an assessment will be done to establish what movements can be accomplished fully and when pain is experienced.
Frequently asked questions
Are you not sure whether advanced sports and remedial therapy are for you? Maybe we can help with some frequently asked questions.
Yip, absolutely. Anyone who has an injury that's preventing them from carrying out their normal life pain-free should book a consultation session.
The purpose of sports massage is to treat soft tissue conditions affecting muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Injuries and preventative measures can both be addressed with sports massage. A combination of standard massage techniques and advanced approaches are used in order to isolate and stretch specific muscles. Generally speaking, recovery/maintenance of range of motion, tone, symmetry, balance, and posture is the goal.
Each session is an hour long.
You should be wearing shorts and a loose fitted t-shirt.

KINETIC TAPING
Kinetic Taping is used to ease muscular pain, treat injuries and help support muscles during sporting activities. Fabric tape is applied to the area of pain and can remain there for up to 5 days. Following application it must remain dry for 1 hour, after that you can shower, bathe and even swim with it on. Traditional bandaging restricts movement whereas the kinetic tape can assist movement at points of injury and provide support for athletes without compromise. It can be used after massage whilst treating an injury or can be applied on its own in a supportive capacity.

When muscle tissue contracts, blood flow becomes restricted, preventing waste products from being excreted and oxygen struggling to get in. The kinetic tape relaxes the muscle and lifts tissues therefore encouraging circulation which in turn provides oxygen and nutrients to the painful muscle and removing toxins. Movement of the limbs is supported and assisted and healing can be promoted and swelling reduced. I use Voodoo Tape which contains menthol, borneal and arnica which soothes the muscles, helping to reduce inflammation and pain.
