What our clients in Norwich have to say
Frequently asked questions
Sports massage is a form of massage involving the manipulation of soft tissue to benefit a person engaged in regular physical activity or assist those with general aches and pains. Sports massage is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue that are caused from repetitive and strenuous physical activity and trauma. The application of sports massage, prior to and after exercise, may enhance performance, aid recovery and prevent injury.
Generally speaking it would benefit everyone to have a regular sports massage once every week/two weeks, however this is not always possible. The honest answer is most tend to opt for a monthly/six-weekly treatment to keep them ticking over and prevent the onset of aches and pains. If, however, you have specific demands that add extra stress/strains to the body then it is about finding a schedule that most reflects your needs.
Unlike other massage therapies, Sports Massage uses deep-tissue techniques intent on adapting the current state of play in the underlying tissues and thus is likely to cause some discomfort. Contrary to popular belief practitioners should endeavour to keep things below the pain threshold and keep things at a level of discomfort rather than ‘jump off the couch’ level pain. However, most describe the sensation as a nice or good pain.
Sports Massage, unlike the name suggests, is not just for those that partake in organised sports or physical activity. It is a system of techniques and philosophy intent on treating and aches and pains derived from the soft tissues of the body (muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia). Therefore, if you suffer from any aches and pains that you feel are related to any of your soft tissues, then a sports massage is likely a good option for you.
As Sports Massage requires direct contact to the body we ask that you wear clothing that allows us to see and work on the area that is painful. If you are coming in for a whole body session then please wear something that is appropriately covering but allows us to see the whole body e.g. shorts for men and shorts and bra/top for women. Please ensure it’s something you are comfortable with.
