What is Sports Massage?
Injuries in sports and often in everyday life are common. Many individuals may prefer to turn a blind eye to recurrent pain or long-standing problems, hoping that the pain may go away, or continue medication, which may not always be the best alternative or offer long-term improvement. Injury and pain may be caused either extrinsically by direct contact from another player or object or intrinsically by a weakness or dysfunction in the body's ability to deal with the forces placed upon it by an activity. Both may result in trauma to the soft tissue of the body, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves.
What to expect.
The initial consultation usually lasts 30mins and will involve a detailed verbal examination of your past medical history, current complaint and physical movement trends, followed by a comprehensive physical examination. Finally a treatment plan will be discussed including recommendations for preventative change if needed.
