What Is Sports Massage?

 

Sports Massage is used to help relieve tight muscles by enhancing circulation, increasing tissue elasticity and reducing muscle tension. As our Sports Massage Therapist, Galina, is a trained and licensed UK Physiotherapist, she can use a variety of techniques (including deep tissue massage, assisted stretching, proprioceptive neural facilitation (PNF) stretching, and exercise prescription etc.) to facilitate recovery and help you return to sports or a pain-free life.

We can treat a wide range of patients, including athletes from various sporting backgrounds to aid performance, avoid injury, or return to sport post-injury, and also those suffering from chronic neck pain, back pain, and more!
