Sport Massage

Sports massage is proven to release and reduce tension in muscles, improve circulation and encourage the removal of waste products such as lactic acid built up during sporting activities.

Following exercise, sports massage also helps to relax the body which can prevent injury. Sports massage is of particular benefit to those who are prone to overuse injuries, as the muscles are allowed to relax and recover fully before the next exercise session.

IASTM Therapy

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) is a technique we often use in physical therapy. IASTM works like a standard massage, but specialized instruments are used in place of a physical therapist's hands. These instruments allow more direct treatment of the soft tissues involved with movement.

Dry Cupping

Dry cupping (also known as 'air cupping') doesn't use heat to create the suction. Instead, it uses a specially designed pump which is attached to the end of the jar. The pump is used to create a vacuum. Some practitioners prefer this method as it gives them more control over the amount of suction.

Because this method doesn't use heat to create suction, there is also no risk of accidentally burning the skin.

Kinesio Taping

Aims of Taping Tape may be used to: Stabilize or support an injury Relieve pain by de-loading vulnerable or painful structures Facilitate normal movement, muscle action, or postural patterns.
