Precision Wellness Rehabilitative Sports Massage

What Is Rehabilitative Sports Massage?

A Rehabilitative Sports Massage aims at alleviating pain due to an injury, sports-related or otherwise, and returning your body to health.

This type of massage is a good choice if you have a specific problem, such as a tender knee from running.

Rehabilitative Sports Massage therapy emphasizes the prevention and healing of injuries to the muscles and tendons.

It is also good for people with other types of injuries, chronic pain or restricted range of motion.

Our massage therapists concentrate on a specific problem area, such as a frozen shoulder or a pulled hamstring, rather than giving a full body massage.

Who Needs Rehabilitative Sports Massage?

You don’t need to be an athlete to benefit from a rehabilitative sports massage.

Anyone who is active should consider massage therapy to relieve soreness and avoid injury.

If you have already experienced an injury, then a sports massage can help speed up the body’s natural healing process.

This type of therapeutic massage is most helpful in oxidizing soft tissue with nutrients, rehabilitating muscles and tendons and removing waste from inside deep tissue.

Rehabilitative Sports Massage vs Traditional Massage

Rehabilitative Sports Massage is somewhat different from a traditional massage because it is meant to delve deeper into the muscle and completely relax all of your tissue after participating in extended, high-intensity action.

Rehabilitative Sports Massage and traditional massage use essentially the same types of massage techniques. However, our Rehabilitative Sports Massage Therapists put more force into specific points of soreness to alleviate soreness and injury.

Therapeutic Sports Massage can be utilized in successful rehabilitation after a labored day on the job site as well as out on the athletic field.

We focus on revitalizing deep within your muscles and tendons to allow relaxation and accelerate the rebuilding of an active, athletic body.
