Sports Massage is for Everyone
Whether you are an ultra-endurance athlete, a weekend trail runner, or simply seeking better mobility for daily life, Sports Massage is an effective way to recover from fatigue, prepare for your next challenge, and help you perform at your best.
Muscular tension from sitting at a desk, driving, or daily life accumulates in the same way as it does for training fatigue. Sports Massage treats the ‘occupational athlete’ as much as the runner, helping to relieve posture-related pain, stiffness, and stress.
Core Benefits
- Accelerate Muscular Recovery
- Overcome Fatigue
- Prevent Injury
- Restore Movement
- Enhance Performance
What Does Sports Massage Involve?
Sports Massage bridges the gap between relaxation and physiotherapy. It is more intense and focused than a relaxation massage.
It involves deep-tissue manipulation, stretching, and other techniques, such as myofascial release, and trigger-point therapy to break down adhesions and flush out metabolic waste.
These help to alleviate post-event soreness, chronic pain, and physical imbalances caused by repetitive activity.
Your initial appointment also includes a consultation and a postural assessment.
After your treatment, Claire will give you simple aftercare advice to prolong the benefits of the massage.
Three-Pillar Approach
Claire uses targeted pressure to break down adhesions and tension that restrict mobility. This restores elasticity to your tissues and helps to ‘reset’ your nervous system.
Rather than waiting for something to ‘break’, Claire focuses on a three-pillar approach to body maintenance: Recover, Prepare, Perform:
- Recover: Faster turnaround from intensive training sessions or weekend events.
- Prepare: Setting the foundation for your adventure and to feel great in your everyday life.
- Perform: Optimising how you move to unlock extra efficiency in your sport.
Cost and Frequency
For general maintenance, a monthly visit is recommended. However, addressing specific areas of tension may require more regular sessions to see lasting results.
Cost: Sports and Deep-Tissue Massage – £45 for 45 minutes; £55 for 60 minutes
