Sports Massage – recover faster, perform better
Whether running, strength training or team sports – a targeted sports massage accelerates recovery, releases muscular imbalances and can prevent injuries. Professional care for ambitious recreational athletes.
When is a sports massage beneficial?
After training
Accelerate lactate clearance and improve muscle recovery – ideal 24–48 hours after intense activity
Before competition
Activate circulation and prepare muscles for peak performance – short and dynamic
Muscular imbalances
Balance unilateral stress – common in running, tennis or weight training
Injury prevention
Detect and treat tightness and shortening before they lead to injuries
Improve mobility
Release fascia, increase joint mobility – for better range of motion in training
Overtraining
Lower muscle tone and initiate recovery when showing signs of overload
What is the difference from classic massage?
Sports massage combines techniques from deep tissue, trigger point and classic massage – adapted to athletic demands. Before competition dynamic and activating, after training regenerative and releasing. Intensity is individually adjusted.
Prices
Massage 90 min.
For a complete sports massage, I recommend 90 minutes – especially for full-body recovery.
Complement: Acupressure for athletes
For chronic overload complaints or stress, acupressure can complement sports massage. The TCM approach regulates the nervous system and is covered by supplementary insurance.
FAQ – Sports Massage
With regular training I recommend a sports massage every 1–2 weeks. In competition preparation a tighter rhythm can make sense.
Light movement is possible. Better postpone intensive training to the next day – the muscles need time to process the treatment.
Absolutely. Even with 2–3 training sessions per week muscular strain builds up that benefits from regular massage.
