Sports Massage
Sports Massage is a targeted treatment designed for athletes, active individuals, and anyone experiencing muscular strain from physical activity. Unlike a relaxing massage, this therapy uses firmer pressure, stretching, and specialised techniques to release tension, improve flexibility, and support recovery.
Sports massage is not only for professional athletes—it’s equally beneficial for anyone who wants to maintain mobility, recover from workouts, or prevent injury.
