Sports Massage
We provide specific massage service for athletes. Constant training and proper nutrition cause the athlete's body to be strong and function effectively. For these reasons, healing and recovery tend to occur more efficiently in the athlete's body.

Sports massage consists of massage therapy provided in conjunction with any given athletic event and is beneficial to athletes of any sport.
Pre-Event Sports Massage
Pre-event Sports Massage focuses on increasing the circulation to muscles and increasing flexibility. It is done at the performance site (i.e.: at the athletic event) with the athlete fully clothed. It is fast paced and stimulating, helping to establish blood flow and to warm up the muscles.
Inter-Event Sports Massage
Inter-event massage is given between games or events. This massage will be brief and light. Problem areas are addressed generally.The goal of therapy is to assist the rapid return of the body to homeostasis (stable equilibrium).
Post-Event Massage
Post-Event Massage occurs after the athletic event. During the Post-Event treatment the focus is on moving waste out of the muscles, as well as spreading muscles and the muscle fibers. This massage promotes rest and recovery by relaxing the muscle and increasing circulation via the following techniques: effleurage, compression, jostling, fulling and pretrissage. Faster recovery time means that athletes can return to athletic performance promptly and in optimal condition.

Rehabilitative massage assesses and treats the presentation of any soft-tissue injuries therefore, stimulates enhanced recovery.
