Sports Massage Therapy ( SMT ) is not just for the sports person, anyone can benefit from SMT, including people in physically demanding jobs, and those not so obvious ,occupational, emotional, and postural stress may produce many similar characteristics to sports injuries.

The main purpose of SMT is to relieve minor injury to the body, this is achieved by working on tight muscle areas to relieve built up tension. A majority of injuries, aches and pains are caused by a muscular imbalance in the body when one muscle group becomes tight, or a muscle group becomes over stretched, be it from sport or everyday life.

By working on soft tissues, massage can stimulate the muscular and nervous systems, improve the blood circulation and lymphatic flow. This enables fresh oxygenated blood to repair the body tissues and metabolic waste products and toxins to be eliminated. This in turn allows the body to function more efficiently and counteract the debilitating effects of stressfull modern day life.  

SMT tends to be deeper and more intense. It is based on the various elements of Swedish massage and incorporates a combination of other techniques involving stretching, compression, friction, toning and trigger point response techniques. With this blend of techniques, advice and rehabilation exercises will be given to work effectively with the client to bring about optimum performance and to provide injury -free training and miminise post event injuries.
