Best Sports Massages near me in Kerner, Roanoke

Sports massage reduces muscle soreness and DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness), improves flexibility and range of motion, speeds recovery between training sessions, prevents injury, breaks down scar tissue and adhesions, and enhances athletic performance when used regularly.

Sports massage is a specialised form of massage therapy designed for athletes and active individuals. It uses a range of techniques: including deep tissue work, stretching, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release, to prepare the body for activity, aid recovery, and treat sports-related injuries.

A sports massage is designed to boost blood circulation, increase tissue elasticity, and reduce muscle tension. It can be used as part of a muscle warm-up before exercise or to prevent and relieve injuries caused by repeated physical activity. The massages were originally given to athletes but non-athletes can benefit from them, too.

Both use firm pressure, but sports massage is specifically tailored to the demands of sport and exercise: incorporating stretching, pre-event preparation, and post-event recovery work. Deep tissue massage is a technique that may be used within a sports massage session.

A sports massage typically costs between $40 and $135 per session. Fresha shows upfront pricing before you book.
