-
Persistent muscle tightness that limits your performance?
-
Nagging injuries that keep coming back?
-
Recovery times that drag on far too long?
-
Reduced flexibility affecting your sport or daily activities?
-
Chronic pain in your back, shoulders, or legs?
What if you could train harder, recover faster, and perform at your absolute best without relying on painkillers or months of downtime?
Why Your Muscles Aren't Healing (And What Actually Works)
Most people treat muscle pain with rest, ice, and hope. But tight, knotted muscles need more than time they need targeted, expert treatment.
Sports massage isn't your typical relaxation massage. It's a specialised therapeutic technique that:
-
Breaks down scar tissue and adhesions
-
Increases blood flow to damaged areas
-
Releases trigger points causing referred pain
-
Restores full range of motion
-
Speeds recovery by flushing out metabolic waste
This is why athletes at every level from weekend warriors to professionals rely on regular sports massage.
What Happens During Your Session
Your treatment begins with a detailed assessment of your specific issue, movement patterns, and goals.
Then, using advanced techniques including deep tissue work, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy:
✓ Tension and knots dissolve under targeted pressure
✓ Blood flow surges to oxygen-starved muscles
✓ Range of motion improves immediately
✓ Pain signals reduce as tissues release
✓ Your body begins healing faster than it has in months
Most clients leave feeling looser, moving better, and wondering why they waited so long to book.
Who Gets The Best Results?

-
Athletes in training seeking peak performance and injury prevention
-
Runners struggling with ITB syndrome, shin splints, or tight calves
-

Sports Massage vs. Regular Massage: What's The Difference?
Regular massage is wonderful for relaxation and general wellbeing.
Sports massage is clinical, targeted treatment for specific problems:
-
Deeper pressure on problem areas
-
Focus on athletic performance and injury recovery
-
Assessment of biomechanics and movement patterns
-
Treatment of trigger points and muscle adhesions
-
Stretching and mobilization techniques
-
Preventative care for active individuals
Think of it as physiotherapy for your muscles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it hurt?
Sports massage involves firm pressure and can be uncomfortable on tight areas, but it should never be unbearable. We constantly adjust pressure based on your feedback and tolerance.
How soon after injury can I book?
For acute injuries (within 48-72 hours), we recommend waiting until the acute inflammation phase passes. For chronic issues, book anytime.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothing you can move in. We'll need access to the area being treated, so shorts and a sports bra/vest work well.
How often should I come?
This varies by individual. Acute issues might need 2-3 sessions close together. Maintenance for athletes is typically every 2-4 weeks. We'll recommend what's best for you.
Can you help with old injuries?
Absolutely. Many clients come to us with chronic issues from months or years ago that never fully healed. Sports massage can break down old scar tissue and restore function.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No, but if you're currently under medical care for your condition, we're happy to coordinate with your healthcare provider.
