Sports massage is it for me?
Sports & therapeutic massage is very effective at relieving the muscular problems that come from all types of physical activity or lack of activity.
Despite the name it is not just for sporty types. Most of us will experience aches, pains or stiffness at some stage that just won't go away. It's suitable for almost everyone especially people who:
- spend a lot of the day hunched at a computer or driving in a cramped position
- go to the gym, or who are recreational or professional athletes
- have to carry out repetitive physical tasks at work or at home such as lifting, painting and gardening
- perform such as musicians, actors and dancers
