Your therapist can help you resolve any of your injuries with a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.
How can sports massage help?
You may have heard of the terms trigger point therapy and myofascial release therapy. Trigger points are commonly referred to as knots or tight bands that can be felt in tight contracted muscles. Knots often occur as a result of poor posture, repetitive activity or muscle injury. Using a variety of hands-on soft tissue techniques, such as myofascial release and remedial massage, your therapist will work to release the particular trigger points that are causing direct or referred pain and discomfort. Myo means muscle, and fascia means connective tissue, so myofascial release is about releasing the tension in your muscle and connective tissue.
Your therapist may also have you perform stretches and mobility exercises, which help to improve your range of motion and reduce pain. Other treatments such as rock taping (or Kinesiology tape) may also be used in the treatment of injuries or to improve physical performance. Your sports massage therapist will also show you how to manage your symptoms with rehabilitation and exercise techniques you can do between your treatment sessions.
What to expect in your first session
Your sports massage therapist at our Cambridge clinic will test your joints and muscle mobility to find out what is the underlying cause of your injury. Then, they can tailor a treatment specifically for you to get relief from your injury.
