FAQs

More on massage for sports injury and pain

It’s a specialist massage performed by therapists with advanced training (Level 5 NVQ or equivalent). It involves soft tissue therapy - the practice of targeting soft tissue in the body like muscles, tendons and ligaments – to help them to recover and heal. As well as helping with ongoing health conditions or recent injury, it’s ideal booked ahead of sporting events to reduce the risk of injury.

A specialist soft tissue massage can treat a number of conditions, like pulled muscles or sprains, as well as twinges and strain in common places, like the rotator cuff or achilles tendon. For more serious injuries, like torn muscles, torn ligaments and broken bones, you should see a doctor or physiotherapist for treatment.

Soft tissue therapy involves using a number of specialist techniques: soft tissue release (STR) helps restore strength to muscles; muscle energy techniques (METs) ease tension and improve range of motion; and neuromuscular techniques (NMT) which includes trigger point therapy to reduce pain and restore function.

No, the techniques aren't suitable if you're pregnancy. Try booking our specialist pregnancy massage instead.

Yes, we offer fully customisable massage sessions. From massage type to pressure level and extras like aromatherapy, you can tailor your session to suit your needs. You’ll see all the options to customise your experience when you book.
