Massage Therapy Q&A
When you’re an athlete, recovery is just as important as training. Sports massage can help you recover faster, restore your range of motion, maintain your body, and ultimately extend your athletic career.
For those who use massage as preventative care or to manage daily stress, one massage a month is common. Weekly sessions may be desirable if you are receiving massage for injury relief or to relieve chronic tightness that is interfering with your daily life. There are many people who incorporate massage therapy at least twice a month for optimal therapeutic relief.
Massage can ease the strain you put on your body, even if you’re not a professional athlete. It’s helpful for anyone.
Yes, it can. The high levels of lactic acid that result from anaerobic exercise can be reduced by massage, which helps send oxygenated blood back into the muscles.
Why We Do What We Do
Alex C
Great recovery day options for anyone active! I did cupping for the first time, and it relieved so much tension I had in my upper back. The woman there has magic hands, which I was told about after my treatment. She gives a spectacular athletic massage with cupping, tension work, and a massage gun. Cannot wait to go there for this massage. Been dreaming of it since I've been told of it.
