It’s been highly successful in easing tension and stress in the affected area, improving circulation, and even helping your digestive system as well in some cases. Our massage therapy in Tudor City has expertise in dealing with spine and lower back issues, joint mobilization, breaks and/or sprains, and many more.  

Massage Therapy for Sports Injuries

If you’re receiving a message from our massage therapy in Tudor City, you should expect a steady recovery period once the physical therapy has concluded. In other words, the affected area needs time to heal on its own after the program to fully get back to its original state. Physical therapy does not continue into full recovery. Regardless, the main objective of massage therapy for sports injuries is to restore flexibility, mobility, and strength to the affected area. Massages relax the muscles, making it much easier for the body to pump oxygen into the damaged tissues. 

We also use heat which increases the blood flow. Massages are usually used on what’s known as trigger points which are knots in the muscles. When the muscles are relaxed through the massage, the tension in the knots decreases and trigger points can cause hypersensitivity reactions and muscle spasms. These techniques will not only eventually lead to a recovery from the injuries but, if applied correctly, will prevent the injuries from happening again from the same activity. 

The main area of the body that we offer massage therapy for include;

  • The spinal area like the neck, thoracic, lower back, sacrum, and coccyx.
  • The upper extremities like the shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand
  • The lower extremities like the hip, groin, and knee
