When to book in for a Sports Massage!
When you’ve overdone it training
Why?
Chances are your muscles are sore, you can’t use as much force and everything feels tight!
When muscles such as your lower back refuse to relax it can be difficult to engage opposing muscle groups such as your lower abs that are now likely on a constant stretch.
We can:
Use a pre-treatment assessment to look at what your current range and motor output is
Work out what muscle groups are limiting you
Use specific pin and stretch techniques alongside massage to restore what you were lacking
Post-treatment assessment so you can see for yourself!
2. After a heavy lifting day
Why?
Experienced lifters are likely to lose more mobility than a novice lifter due to the increased demands from a heavier weight closer to a 1RM
We can:
Restore range of movement making your next lifting session more comfortable!
Reduce risk of injury with more movement options available
Saves time holding stretches for endless minutes and theraband ‘activation’
3. As part of your maintenance
Why?
The more we work together the more we learn about what your limitations are and when they occur
Try booking in at least once every 4-6 weeks to keep on top of any reduction in range or increase in symptoms
We can:
Keep an eye for any mobility limitations that have caused issues in the past ie. reduced straight leg raise when back pain occurs
Prevent compensations happening when motor output and range starts to deteriorate
Allow you to train as close to your best for longer!
Sound good? Lets get you booked in!
Why?
I like to educate my clients as well as treat so you’ll know what to look out for in future
You’ll feel better for it!
I like to know you’re thriving throughout your week!
