What the treatment is and how it's performed
Sports massage is massage with firm pressure, made for people who train or compete. The practitioner uses techniques such as deep strokes, kneading, trigger point treatment and stretching. Before training and competitions, the massage is shorter and faster. After training, it is calmer and aims to ease soreness and muscle tension.
The treatment takes 30–90 minutes.
Pain level, downtime and healing
The pressure is firm and can feel uncomfortable in tight muscles. Say so if it gets too much.
No downtime. You can be stiff for a day or two.
Who it's for and safety information
Many people have massage regularly in periods of heavy training.
Contact a doctor if you get swelling, pain, warmth and redness in one leg, or pain that increases after the massage.
