Get answers to common questions about Sports massage.
Sports massage is a targeted massage focusing on muscles used in athletic activity. It benefits amateur and professional athletes, weekend warriors, and anyone training regularly by improving flexibility, reducing soreness, preventing injury, and supporting faster recovery through sport-specific techniques.
Frequency depends on training intensity and goals—typically weekly or biweekly during heavy training, and monthly for maintenance. Your therapist will recommend timing around workouts or events to maximize recovery and performance while avoiding excessive soreness before competition.
Some discomfort can occur, especially with deep techniques or tight muscles, but therapists use feedback to adjust pressure. Mild soreness afterwards is common; communicate your tolerance so the therapist can ensure effective treatment without unnecessary pain.
Avoid intense, deep sessions in the 24 hours before a key event. Gentle pre-event massage can improve circulation and reduce tension. Your therapist will tailor timing and pressure to prepare muscles without risking soreness or diminished performance.
No referral is generally required; many clients book directly. However, if you have a medical condition, recent surgery, or complex injury, bring documentation or consult your physician first. Our therapists perform thorough assessments to ensure safe, appropriate care.
Sessions commonly run 30, 45, or 60 minutes depending on needs. Longer sessions allow comprehensive assessment and treatment of multiple areas. Your therapist will recommend session length based on sport, injury history, and targeted recovery or performance goals.
