Sport and Recovery Massage
focuses
on specific muscles of an athlete's body to maximize performance, decrease
recovery time and minimize the potential for injury. Sports massage was designed
for athletes, but is useful for anyone with chronic pain, injury or
range-of-motion issues.
Sports massage was originally developed to help athletes prepare their bodies
for optimal performance, recover after a big event, or function well during
training. Sports massage emphasizes prevention and healing of injuries to the
muscles and tendons.
