Will I experience any pain throughout the treatment?

A sports massage aims to reduce discomfort, not create pain. Some of the deep pressure and trigger point techniques used during a sports massage can sometimes feel uncomfortable but it should not be painful. As soon as the therapist begins your massage they will ask you if the pressure is ok.  If you feel any pain during treatment please ensure you make your therapist aware so that they can alter the pressure accordingly.

What can I expect during a sports massage treatment?

The first session will consist of an assessment which includes history taking, a range of movement analysis and a visual/manual examination of the painful area before treatment begins.
