sports massage
Sports massage, a form of manual therapy, encompasses deep tissue massage, soft tissue release, and trigger point therapy. While some may find it uncomfortable, it is highly effective at restoring optimal muscle length and reducing tension within muscle tissue.
Not only for athletes:
Sports massage isn’t exclusive to athletes; it benefits anyone. Whether you experience daily aches from desk work, long drives, or have physically demanding jobs, it can provide relief. Additionally, it can positively impact mental well-being, as emotional stress and anxiety often manifest similar symptoms to those of athletes.

Our approach to Rehabilitation at Body Boost Clinic
Rehabilitation provides a vital role in pain relief and recovery from fractures, surgery, age-related conditions and muscle, tendon and ligament injuries. But you don’t have to be injured to benefit from physiotherapy; it’s just as valuable as a preventative measure, and is highly recommended for athletes, physical performers or anyone that struggles with pain in everyday life.
Exercise Prescription
The primary method we use to rehabilitate injuries is precise, individualised exercise prescription which addresses any associated weaknesses or imbalance. We also design our exercise prescriptions to reduce the risk of further injury, and it is recommended not just for rehabilitation but prevention as well. If you have any results out of the normal range we recommend you consult a doctor just to be sure that everything is ok.
FAQ
Does a sports massage hurt?
Sports massage techniques can range from gentle and relaxing to deep and intense, depending on the goals of the session and specific needs. Whilst some discomfort or mild pain may be experienced, it shouldn’t be excessively painful or unbearable. It is important to note that this is a temporary response. It is essential to work with a skilled and experienced physiotherapist or sports masseuse who can customise the treatment, attending to your specific needs whilst adjusting the pressure accordingly – but still providing an effective outcome.
Which therapy is used in sports rehabilitation?
Physiotherapy is used in the process of sports injury rehabilitation for two main reasons; one, to increase and restore muscle activity and function as quickly as possible, and secondly to ensure you reduce the chance of re-injury. This can be done by gradually increasing the muscle strength via resistance training exercises or simply through functional movements that mimic those of the particular athlete’s sport. The key is to restore full functional movement and strength in order to reduce pain, swelling, and improve athletic performance.
How can Rehabilitation help with pain relief?
A good program involves exercising the injured area and stretching tight muscles, massaging sore spots, and doing exercises that prepare it to withstand stress from exercise, competition, or other situations that could cause injury in the future. During the sports injury rehabilitation process, there are certain techniques that can be used by sports physiotherapists to help promote the healing process of soft tissues.
How does Rehabilitation prevent injury?
Rehabilitation can help deal with injuries by restoring strength and mobility to the affected part of the body. In addition, it can also help prevent future injuries. A physiotherapist can help come up with a plan to prevent future injuries for athletes or people who do daily exercises or any other physical activities. They will examine your lifestyle, medical history, or any previous injuries to come up with a plan for you.
A physiotherapist can identify the common injuries that you are susceptible to when playing a particular sport or doing any repetitive movements. Based on this they can provide various recommendations to help you avoid these overuse injuries.
This plan can include regular exercises, stretching or any manual therapy to strengthen the body and improve flexibility. It can help people regain their energy, movement, and overall strength of the body. Physiotherapists can continue to guide the patients and educate them so that they can avoid over stressing their body and watch out for any signs of injuries.
