Sports Massage Therapy Brisbane at Align Massage - What is Sports Massage?

Sports Massage Therapy includes two types of massage: pre-sports massage and post-sports massage. Pre-event sports massage is perfect for those who wish to feel more fluid and flexible before an event but don’t have any specific pain, discomfort, or injury that needs to be addressed. Because the body requires time to recuperate from a hard treatment-based massage before a sporting event, pre-event sports massage is generally light and similar to a deep tissue massage. Sports Massage Therapy Brisbane can also be performed after a competition.

The body will be healing from stress and strain after an athletic event, the muscles will be regenerating, and there may be some inflammation in the tissues. This type of post-workout discomfort is known as delayed onset muscle soreness, or DOMS, and a post-event sports massage can help alleviate the symptoms of DOMS by calming hurting muscles, increasing blood flow to aid in muscle repair, and reducing inflammation. After exercise, a deep tissue or high-pressure massage is not recommended because it can make you feel even worse, thus a post-event sports massage therapy Brisbane is light and similar to a relaxation massage.

It should not be uncomfortable to receive a sports massage! Our Sports Massage Therapists Brisbane will customise the pressure of a massage to meet the needs of each client. Any massage that is excessively harsh can increase tension by causing muscles to contract and shorten in response to pain, which would be counterproductive before an event or bring more pain to a body that is already recovering from the stress and strain of activity after an event. If needed, a sports massage therapy Brisbane can be full body or focused on the upper or lower body. Long, calming, hands-on treatments are used by therapists to gently stretch muscle tissues, alleviate tightness and stiffness, and promote blood flow, all of which are great for preparing the body for peak physical performance or aiding in recuperation.

Relieve any muscle tension you may be experiencing and restore balance to the musculoskeletal system. By enjoying a regular sports massage you can not only prevent the likelihood of future injuries occurring, but also help expedite your recovery time from any overuse of the joints and muscles in the musculoskeletal system.
