Benefits of Sports Massage
Sports massage provides numerous physical and mental advantages:

  • Enhanced Performance: Prepares muscles for activity and increases flexibility.

  • Injury Prevention: Identifies tight or imbalanced areas before they lead to injury.

  • Faster Recovery: Helps remove lactic acid and promotes circulation for quicker healing.

  • Reduced Muscle Soreness: Alleviates delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) after workouts.

  • Mental Focus & Relaxation: Reduces stress and enhances concentration for peak performance.

Sports massage is tailored to your sport, training schedule, and individual needs, making it highly effective for both prevention and recovery.

Your Sports Massage session at Fix Massage and Bodywork is fully customized:

  1. Assessment: We’ll discuss your training routine, past injuries, and areas of concern.

  3. Dynamic Stretching: Specific stretches and movements are incorporated to improve mobility and function.
