Sports massage is not only limited to people who do sport but is good for anybody looking for a soft tissue massage to reduce muscles pain and tightness.It works particularly well in combination with chiropractic treatment and a lot of our patients have sports massage in between their regular chiropractic treatments to keep their body the best it can.

Sports Massage Therapy (SMT) consists of specific components designed to reduce injuries, alleviate inflammation, etc. for amateur and professional athletes before, during, after, and within their training programmes to prepare the athlete for peak performance.

Our therapists treat a range of athletes including, climbers, runners, cyclists, football and rugby players etc. We also treat people who spend prolonged hours working on computers, at a desk & driving, due to the muscular tension, pain and tightness, that they experience. Occupations that involve repetitive activities & manual work can also benefit from sports massage treatment.
