Sports massage HFPA

07/03/2016

For those of you that do not like having massages which involve the removal of clothing and oil on the skin, I can still treat you.
I have had my first client who wanted sports massage and trigger point release done over clothing and he was happy with the result.

The oil aids as a medium of slip over the skin to prevent friction and pain from pulling on the skin. Working over clothing inhibits me to work in smooth movements along your body so I tend to focus more on point specific pressure rather than glide along the full length of the muscle in one movement.

Either way, my aim is to find the tense areas in the muscles and break down the knots and spasms to relieve the pain you are feeling.

There is always a solution. :)
Have a great day!

After a fantastic season with the Lions winning the Currie Cup, the men have some much deserved time off. This means that from Tuesday the 10th to Tuesday the 17th Nov I will be more available at the Rivonia practice to see you for treatment.

Give me a shout should you need a massage.

This is fantastic! When massaging we first follow the direction of the muscles while warming them up before we dig in deeper and release the knots and tension. If you have had a massage treatment before, these pictures will help give you an idea of why we work the way we do. :)

The definition of Sports Massage:

It is a deep focused massage which involves management, manipulation and rehabilitation of the body's soft tissue using specialized techniques. This massage aims at relieving stress and tension which has built up in the muscles during maximum physical activity. Sports massage ensures the health and well-being of an athlete to enhance their athletic performance.
