Sports Massage
When talking about Sports Massage, one question is asked more than others. Does massage just make you FEEL good?
No! Massage has proven physiological effects that not only make you feel good, it also helps you move better. Massage helps your body move more efficiently with less pain. Massage has been proven to increase:
- Range of motion (extent of movement)
- Quality of motion (fluidity of movement)
- Flexibility (how far you can stretch a muscle)
Therapeutic Sports Massage is becoming a bigger part of injury prevention regimens for athletes across the globe from amateur to professional. Massage does much more than make you feel good. Taking part in a massage therapy program during your six-week course will help you achieve greater results.
