What is Athlete Therapy?

Think of Athlete Therapy as the more focused sibling of deep tissue massage. The two massages are similar – firm pressure, focusing on muscles and connective tissue deep within the body. But with a sports massage, your therapist may incorporate stretching and the session may be targeted to a specific area of the body.

Athlete Therapy is more focused on deep tissue massage and may focus on a specific area of the body. Athletic Therapy uses a combination of deep, moderate, and light to loosen muscle knots, improve blood flow, and prevent lactic acid buildup.

How does Athlete therapy work?

Athlete Therapy is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue that are caused by 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.
