Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is not a treatment in itself but a technique used within a therapeutic treatment. Deep pressure is applied to manipulate particular areas of tension that has not responded to less intense massage techniques. When there is chronic muscle tension or injury, there are usually adhesions (bands of painful, rigid tissue) in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Adhesions can block circulation and cause pain, limited movement, and inflammation. Deep tissue massage works by physically breaking down these adhesions to relieve pain and restore normal movement and reduce the inflammation.
Myofascial Release Therapy
Working muscles hard in order to improve sporting performance, whether you are an amateur, professional and or just do sport for fun and fitness, means that you are always working your muscles harder and harder. With sports massage you can help those muscles to perform better. Sports massage is very similar to remedial massage, except the goals are geared up to improving sporting performance and avoiding injury.
