Whether you’re a world-class athlete, a weekend jogger or something in between, you can benefit from sports massage therapy. Depending upon the exact sports and types of physical activity in which you regularly engage, your sports massage therapy program may consist a number of techniques. Generally speaking, though, your therapist will focus on the specific parts of your body that are overused and stressed as the result of repetitive or aggressive movements.
At WellCore Health and Chiropractic of Hillsboro, sports massage therapy is one of the many massage services we offer. We provide sports massages for athletes of all ages and skills levels. Athletes come to us for relief from the aches and pains commonly experienced following intense physical activity and also as part of their normal training regime. Massage therapy has numerous benefits for athletes before and after events.
Countless athletes of all types have already discovered the benefits of sports massage therapy. Massages can reduce fatigue, ease aches and pains, increase flexibility, improve endurance, prevent injury and prepare the body and mind for peak athletic performance.
While there are numerous treatments from which athletes can benefit, massage therapy is the only one that allows the therapist to precisely target junctions between the tendons and muscles. A study published by the Journal of Strength and Conditioning states that even a 30-second massage improves hip-flexor range of motion. Countless other studies have also proven that massage therapy is highly effective in decreasing muscle soreness among athletes.
If you regularly engage in any type of strenuous physical activity, you are likely a good candidate for sports massage therapy. Making weekly or bi-weekly massage sessions a part of your normal training routine can help you improve your overall well-being and maybe even your athletic performance.
