  • Muscle Tension: Relieving tightness and improving flexibility in muscles.

In addition to addressing the previous conditions, sports massage also brings forth numerous benefits, such as:

Sports Massage vs Regular Massage

While both sports and regular massages aim to promote relaxation and alleviate muscle tension, they serve distinct purposes. A sports massage is tailored to address specific muscular issues, enhance recovery, and improve athletic performance. 

In contrast, a regular massage, often referred to as a Swedish massage, primarily focuses on providing general relaxation and easing everyday muscular tension.

Is it worth getting a Sports Massage?

Absolutely. A sports massage is beneficial for enhancing athletic performance, aiding recovery, reducing muscle tension, improving flexibility, and preventing injuries. It's worth it for both athletes and non-athletes experiencing muscle stress or stiffness.

What Does a Sports Massage include?

A sports massage at SoCo Therapies includes a thorough consultation, a tailored massage session focusing on your specific muscular issues or areas of tension, and aftercare advice. Expect targeted muscle manipulation, stretching, and potentially some exercises during the session to enhance your mobility and alleviate muscle stress.

Do I have to take my clothes off for a Sports Massage?

No, it's not mandatory to remove all your clothes for a sports massage. You'll be covered with a sheet, and only the area being worked on will be exposed. Your comfort is paramount, and undressing is to your level of comfort.

How painful is a sports massage?

Sports massages can involve mild discomfort, especially during deep tissue techniques, but should never be unbearable. Your therapist will adjust the pressure according to your comfort. Some post-massage soreness in the treated area is normal but will quickly subside. Always communicate with your therapist about your comfort levels.

How often should I get a sports massage?

The frequency of sports massages depends on various factors like your activity level, injury severity, and individual circumstances. While regular sessions typically yield better results, our therapists will assess and advise on a schedule tailored to your specific needs.

What happens to your body after a sports massage?

After a sports massage, your muscles should feel relaxed and loose. You might experience some soreness, similar to the feeling after a workout, which typically subsides within a day or two. Drinking plenty of water and allowing your body to rest can aid in the recovery process post-massage.
