What to expect
What does the treatment involve?
Soft tissue release: A method of stretching localised areas of damage or tension. Especially effective in treating overuse injuries and excessively tense muscles.
Neuromuscular techniques (NMT): Trigger points can develop around an area of trauma to protect it from further damage. NMT is the application of deep pressure on these trigger points to relax the tissue and reset the neural pathway.
Muscle Energy Technique (MET): This technique is used to release muscle tension, restore muscle length and improve range of movement. It uses muscle contraction and resistance to create a neural response that causes the muscles to relax.
Frictions: A deep massage technique that targets fibrous adhesions and scar tissues.
Who can benefit from a sports massage?
Sports massage is for everyone not just athletes! Whether you're highly active, starting your fitness journey or simply dealing with everyday muscle tension from daily life. Sports massage offers tailored benefits suiting your needs and lifestyle.
Benefits of sports massage:
Sports massage can help athletes of all levels improve their performance, prevent injuries, and recover faster. Regular massage can also reduce stress, improve sleep, and promote overall wellness.
Not only does it benefit athletes but it benefits everyone! Sports massage helps to reduce tension, improve flexibility and support your overall well-being.
At Lebentz Sports Massage, I am committed to helping all our clients achieve their best by tailoring each session to you.
Effects of the massage:
It is likely there will be some redness on the skin and that you will feel a bit sore for a few days after the sports massage. This is perfectly normal and it is important you keep hydrated to help your body metabolise the waste products removed from the soft tissue.
It usually takes 24-48 hours to feel the full effect of a sports massage after which you should feel comfortable, rejuvenated and refreshed.
Once you have booked:
Once you have booked your appointment, you will recieve a confirmation email. Shortly after, you will recieve a consultation form which will need to be completed prior to your appointment.
Information about parking and finding us will also be on the confirmation email.
What to wear:
It is important that you to feel comfortable during your treatment.
I ask male clients to wear loose fitting shorts and female clients to also wear loose fitting shorts and a bra/ sports bra.
Throughout your treatment, towels are used to ensure that you are comfortable and that your modesty is maintained.
