Sports Massage Benefits
A sports massage is a type of deep-tissue massage that targets and mobilises the body’s soft tissue. This therapeutic massage focuses on specific areas and muscle groups to address your specific therapy needs.
Sports massage is a form of therapy for your musculoskeletal system that goes beyond the sporting context. Contrary to what you might assume, it’s not limited to athletes—it applies to anyone who’s in need of mobilising the soft tissue or accessing the remedial therapy benefits of sports massages.
Professional athletes are advised to get sports massages as a regular part of their training and recovery programme to prevent injuries, improve their range of motion, and enhance their performance. Non-athletes can get sports massages in tandem with physiotherapy and osteopathy treatments to support their general fitness and well-being.
Enjoy the multi-faceted effects of this targeted therapeutic massage on your body’s physiology at The Somatic Clinic. Our massage therapists ensure your muscles receive much-needed relief from stress and tension during training and everyday activities.

Types and Techniques of Sports Massages at The Somatic Clinic
There are three main types of sports massages: restorative, rehabilitative and preventative. Let’s explore them in greater detail:
Rehabilitative Sports Massage
This type of massage uses techniques to treat injuries and rehabilitate the body from injury trauma. It aims to relieve pain and return the body to its pre-injury state.
Restorative Sports Massage
Usually used during training, this massage helps you enhance your athletic practice while decreasing injury risks.
Preventative Sports Massage
Regularly maintaining your body’s musculoskeletal system is as important as recovering from an injury. This type of sports massage aims to decrease your chances of future injuries after you have recovered from one. Preventative sports massage works like a regular body maintenance treatment to keep the muscles functioning optimally.
The techniques in sports massage are designed to target specific muscles in the body and promote therapeutic benefits. The trained sports massage therapists at the Somatic Clinic employ one or more of the following techniques:
