What is Sports Massage?

Sports massage incorporates Swedish massage movements, together with additional intensive techniques that are specifically designed to prevent and treat sports injuries.

Swedish massage was developed in the 1700s by Per Henrik Ling, a Swedish physiologist and fencing master, and involves the use of gliding strokes, kneading movements, circular pressure of the hand and fingers, vibratory movements, brisk tapping and bending and stretching.
