The basic techniques used in sports massage are the same as the basic techniques used in other forms of massage. A sports massage therapist works the deep tissues of the body to reduce scar tissue and loosen tight fibers in the muscles. Therefore, the therapist applies greater pressure than a general masseuse. Sometimes a sports massage is able to reduce an injury to an acute stage, which then triggers the body's natural healing abilities.
Receiving regular sports massages is proven to help athletes reach their peak performance level in competition. Some benefits of sports massages include increased flexibility and range of motion due to improvement in muscle elasticity, reduction of soreness and cramps through the removal of lactic acid and scar tissue, and an increase in general muscle health, thus preventing injuries.
