Massaggi are one of the top sports massage therapy services
Massage expert Ben Pianese founded Massaggi. Ben has worked in massage therapy for 19 years and has developed many massage techniques to help clients with joint pains and stiff muscles.
Along with a team of top sports massage London therapists, Ben Pianese offers in-house massage treatments at Massaggiʼs clinics. They currently have Massage in Marylebone, Wigmore Street, and Islington. Massaggi also provides in-house massage treatments and home and hotel visits. Massage is essential for building a more substantial, leaner and healthier body.
Massage aids athletes in two main ways. The first is to improve performance through massage techniques, and the second is to aid with recovery from sports injuries.
1. Sports massage for enhancing performance
Massage involves manipulating the soft tissue structures of the body. This soothes the body and, therefore, reduces stress levels so the body can perform at peak conditions. It has also been shown that massages increase the levels of endorphins and serotonin in the body, which reduce pain and stave off sports-related pains and injuries.
By targeting specific muscle groups and working on them, the massage therapist can ensure that the athlete performs with an improved range of motion and muscle flexibility. One of the main focuses of massages for sports performance is to ensure your muscles are in peak condition.
2. Remedial massage for sports injuries
After training, some athletes can suffer from lower back pain, trauma, and repetitive strain. The surrounding area becomes tight and restricted, affecting the body’s range of motion and stability. Point restriction places pressure on nerves, bones, and muscles, causing chronic pain.
Many physical effects of massage counteract these problems. Massage stretches muscle tissues, helping to relieve tension and pressure buildup. Massage also increases blood flow to tissues, enabling Nutrients to pass through them more easily. It will also help repair scar tissue.
Scar tissue results from previous injuries and can cause stiff muscles, joints, and ligaments. It can also lead to inflexible ligaments that are prone to injury and pain. All these factors combined mean that massage is an ideal way for any athlete to recover from sports-related injuries.
