Sports Massage uses various deep massage techniques to maintain health within the body's soft tissues. This may be through breaking down small lesions that have occurred over time, or by preventing areas of tension that can inhibit achievement or lead to injury. 
Sports Massage can benefit many different lifestyles - those with physically demanding professions, sports persons or lifestyles with many postural or emotional stressors can all lead to tension that will benefit from sports massage.

Sports Massage is more aimed towards reducing problematic areas using necessary techniques than providing patient relaxation. Therefore, the patient should be aware that due to the strong techniques used, soreness post treatment is common. However, this should lead to ease of motion and revitalisation.
