Anyone can benefit from Sports Massage, it is not just for the elite athlete, but those who like gardening, walking, jogging and many other pastimes and hobbies.The main purpose of Sports Massage Therapy is to help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body`s soft tissues during both sedentary jobs and physical activity. Where minor injuries and lesions occur, due to overexertion and/or overuse, massage can break them down quickly and effectively. Sports Massage has many benefits. In addition to feeling good, it reduces the heart rate and blood pressure, increases circulation and lymph flow, reduces muscle tension, improves flexibility and relieves pain. 

Swedish massage
The main purpose of Swedish Massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles. It shortens recovery time time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes. It increases circulation without increasing heart load. It stretches the ligaments and tendons keeping them supple and pliable. Swedish massage also stimulates the skin and nervous system and soothes the nerves themselves at the same time. It reduces stress, both emotional and physical, and is suggested in a regular program for stress management.
