Sports and Remedial Massage
Practitioner: Maureen Doncaster
Sports massage can facilitate a general relaxation and harmonisation of
the muscular-skeletal system. It can also be directed into specific problem
areas where stress or injuries have been experienced. These injuries,
or stressed areas, need not have been induced through sporting activities.
'Sport massage' can help to remove the accumulation of general aches and
pains. This type of massage is directed and suited to the personal needs
of the individual, for example: preventative, corrective, pre-event, post-event,
training, relaxation, injuty prevention, injury treatment, age related
aches and pains.
Massage can stimulate and relax the body and mind. The skin, blood and
lymphatic systems are stimulated, this in turn boosts circulation, aids
cellular renewal, and the removal of toxic wastes. Tense muscles are relaxed,
stiff joints are loosened, and an all-over feeling of relaxation and well
being may be experienced. |
