Frequently Asked Questions
For the most part, sports massage is safe with very few side effects. Potential side effects of sports massage include tenderness or stiffness for one to two days after a therapy session. It’s also possible that you could have a skin reaction to the massage oils used.
We have a section on sports massage techniques, accessed here.
Overuse injuries can occur in everyday life and are generally brought on by the things we do repetitively everyday. We will use remedial massage to treat you and look at what day to day activities could be the cause and will give you simple solutions to help with this. Generally making a few small changes can have a big effect.
Sometimes yes. If you have a tight, painful neck and shoulder complex, for example, you can expect to come away from a Sports Massage experiencing a lot of relief, at least for a while. But it probably took you months or years to get that way. It’s not reasonable to expect permanent relief from an hour session of Sports Massage. But over time you should see constant improvements.
A brief history is taken prior to the massage including your sports goals or event deadlines. We may do some standing tests and no doubt will review your posture (this we do with your clothes on). The majority of our treatment is hands-on work, however we want to fix you, so may glean as much information from you so we can work out what’s going on.
That depends on several factors: if you are an athlete/participate in sport, factors such as training volume and intensity need to be considered; also whether or not you have chronic pain or acute injury, etc. If you don’t participate in sport, then occupational factors may come into play, for example, do you sit at a desk all day and have a tight neck and shoulders? Or do you carry out heavy manual work which makes you tight and prone to injury?
For some people, a weekly massage gives huge results. Other people only get an occasional Sports Massage if they’re in pain. The best way to reduce the effects of hard training, stress or occupational aches and pains, is with regular Sports Massage. It is a fact that even getting massaged once a month regularly has a long lasting positive impact.
Yes. Contraindications are conditions when you should not be massaged.
The most common condition is that of an acute injury or inflammation. Usually, the first 72 hours after an injury is the acute stage. After the swelling and pain begin to diminish, massage is recommended.
Other contraindications are pre-existing injuries or medical conditions that make it inadvisable for clients to undergo a massage treatment.
This is because the massage could be harmful or dangerous to the client, or could exacerbate the symptoms of their existing condition or injury.
These can be classified as:
- TOTAL – conditions or illnesses that prevent the client from receiving sports massage therapy, or
- LOCAL – a condition or illness restricts the areas of the body where massages can be received.
One of the most common examples are infections – viral, bacterial, or fungal.
Some skin conditions, including psoriasis, eczema, severe acne, open wounds or sores, including cold sores could be classed as total or local sports massage contraindication depends on the type of condition that it is.
If you feel you have a condition that maybe of a concern, please identify and clarify it with your therapist.
During pregnancy, hormonal changes cause ligaments and joints to soften leading to additional strain on the skeletal system. This often causes aches and pains most commonly in the hips, buttocks and lower back. The increasing weight of the baby can pull on the lumbar spine causing postural imbalances. These changes can be difficult to prepare for, but massage during pregnancy can help to reduce these discomforts and promote relaxation and a sense of well-being. Massage therapy during pregnancy can help:-
- Ease muscle and joint strain
- Reduce stress and anxiety
- Promote relaxation and sleep
- Reduce oedema and blood pressure
- Improve flexibility and energy levels
- Support your physiological and emotional needs
Please note: If you are in your first trimester of pregnancy, please contact your GP before having a massage. If you are considered high risk, please also take the advice of your GP at any stage of pregnancy.
