Sport and Deep Tissue Massage

SPORTS MASSAGE

Sports massage is useful for anyone experiencing tension, and pain in their muscles, for those who have injuries, or for anyone who wishes to have a treatment that involves more depth to the muscle work.

I use various techniques to release tension in the muscles, such as muscle energy techniques (stretch and release methods), and trigger point massage if I feel your body needs it.

I have been doing massage therapy since 1994, with great success treating injuries, tension, shoulder problems, leg and ankle pains, neck pain, tendonitis, tennis elbow, rotator cuff problems etc.

Each session focuses on what needs attention and will vary depending on what you present with.

dry cupping therapy

Dry cupping therapy can be used as an extra modality to treat musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction in conjunction with massage therapy. It is based on a Western perspective of cupping therapy.

Cupping involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This suction is thought to improve the flow of energy in the body and facilitate healing. 

According to a review in 2018, the effects of cupping therapy include:

• promoting the skin’s blood & lymph flow

• changing the skin’s biomechanical properties

• increasing pain thresholds

• reducing inflammation and pain

• boosting cellular immunity

• the mechanical effect of cupping also stretches underlying tissue (fascia)
