Description
Massage has been around for centuries and is perhaps one of the best known forms of physical therapy around. It has long been used to improve blood flow, reduce muscular tension, and stimulate the body’s self-healing abilities. In recent decades, massage has re-emerged as an effective method for improving the physical, mental and physiological well-being of athletes and those who are actively involved in physical activities. It eventually evolved into the discipline of sports massage, which is now widely used in a variety of sporting events.
Sports massage involves the manipulation of soft tissue throughout the body to correct problems and imbalances caused by repetitive exposure to physical activities. It is usually administered pre-, inter-, and post-sporting event to allow for general relaxation, recovery, prevention of muscle dysfunction, reduction of risk of injury, and enhance overall performance. Any active person can benefit from sports massage. However, its administration must be carried out by a professional specialising in sports massage to ensure safety and efficacy.
