Sports massage is a system of techniques designed to help athletes increase performance and prevent injuries during training and competition. However, anyone can benefit from receiving this type of bodywork.

This type of massage is more interactive than other types of body work and goal oriented in its approach since the focus of the session is about gaining greater range of motion and decreasing the potential for over-use injuries and eliminating chronically held tension. More specifically for athletes, sports massage also helps increase performance by giving one more power and decreasing the length of recovery time between training sessions.

And because the Hendrickson Method of orthopedic massage is so extraordinary and quick in releasing tension, increasing range of motion and reducing fibrosis and adhesions in and around joints and muscle attachments that one will see a lot of it employed during a sports massage session with me.
