Depending on your body condition and your current stage (whether you are interested in injury recovery, injury prevention, pre or post competition treatment etc.) I will recommend how many sessions may be necessary to address your goals.
The difference between sports + remedial massage and other forms of massage is that alongside the basic massage techniques more specific and deeper techniques are employed in order to address problematic muscle fibres. Some examples include:
- deep tissue massage
- soft tissue release
- muscle energy techniques
- neuromuscular techniques
- myofascial release
- triggerpoint treatment
- joint assessment
- postural assessment
- medical acupuncture (also known as dry needling)
The specific combination of general massage and more intensive therapies used, is determined by your current state and goals. All your needs will be incorporated in a treatment.
I also offer a relaxing head, neck and shoulder massage to unwind and destress. If you carry any tension in your body or if you feel stressed and anxious or if you just enjoy the feeling of a head, neck and shoulder massage why not try this relaxing but still targeted treatment. To intensify the relaxation experience bring along your favorite music on an MP3 player so that you can enjoy this with the music that you like- see testimonials.
If you wonder whether sports + remedial massage can help you, please call Christos (based in Kentish Town, London) on 0793 663 4059 or info@therapy4muscles.com.
