Sports Massage has a common misconception of being a massage that only athletes or people involved in fitness will benefit from the effects of. However, as a deep tissue massage treatment, it has the potential to aid or benefit any person who is suffering from any tension, tightness, muscle and soft tissue injury or scar tissue.

So if you are a desk worker, who possibly has neck, shoulder and/or lower back pain or perhaps your employ has you standing for long periods and you have aches or pains through your legs and feet, you too could benefit from a tailored Fibre Tense Sports Massage treatment.

Of course, if you are an athlete (amateur or professional) or a fitness enthusiast, a Fibre Tense Sports Massage treatment can assist in injury management, repair and recovery or also be tailored to be a part of your training regime for exercise warm ups, cool downs and aid in tension and fatigue reduction.

A Fibre Tense Sports Massage treatment could bring you more freedom of movement, pain and tension reduction and potentially improve your performance, whatever your work or sporting discipline.

Depending on the massage being performed, a relaxation-based holistic massage or a more deep-tissue sports treatment, the body will experience different results. A holistic massage is primarily performed to reduce stress and tension using gentle effleurage and some mild deep techniques over a full body massage to bring the body towards a more central state of homeostasis. A sports massage utilizes more focused and deeper techniques to possibly just one area of the body to relieve muscle stress, reduce tension and adhesions and break down calcifications and scar tissue. However, any massage can be a blend of many different techniques to suit a client’s desires. Any massage performed will likely encourage fresh oxygen and nutrients to parts of the body being treated, flush toxins and foreign substances from the muscles and encourage a sense of well-being.

The gift of massage is something that I enjoy bestowing on every client and with every treatment. Not only do I get a kick out of having a client feel ‘amazing and relaxed’ after a treatment performed, but I also find it very therapeutic and grounding for myself whilst conducting a massage. There is almost always a wonderful energy experienced during a massage and I feel blessed to see my clients leave with a smile afterwards.

My number one tip for having a happy body: Stretching… Stretch every day, as often and as long as you can. It does not just have to be the old stretch routines that we all learned at school or playing team sports as these can get stale and tedious, there are other more dynamic and fun ways to gently stretch our bodies. For instance, performing Yoga or Pilates once a week and incorporating simple movements or poses from your classes into your daily routine. You will be amazed at your sense of body & mind health and well-being after just a couple of days. So stretch!
