Massage helps to de-stress and detoxify the body by releasing muscular tensions, pains and toxins.  It also stimulates nerve receptors which relax the tissues.

The stroking effect of massage stimulates the body’s general circulation and lymphatic flow, which is especially good for the lower legs where the blood pressure is weaker.

Massage improves the appearance as it increases the healthy functioning of the skin, and encourages nutrients to the organs.

The deep, long strokes of the massage stretch the muscles which help increase flexibility and range of movement from a joint.  In the Sports Massage special stretching techniques such as STR and MET are used, as they stretch the tissues in a way that may not be possible with static stretches.

Massage provides injury prevention and quicker injury recovery by gently easing away scar tissue and realigning muscle fibres.
