The Benefits of Sports Massage In The Summer

If you find yourself with a sore back after a weekend of fun in the sun, be sure to request a reservation for a Sports Massage at your local Massage Heights Retreat.

If your summer is like ours, you are probably out and about as often as possible with friends and family exploring nature, playing pick-up backyard basketball games or perhaps throwing the ball with the kids. Unfortunately, all of this activity can lead to muscle strain and other pains. If you find yourself with a sore back after a weekend of fun in the sun, be sure to request a reservation for a Sports Massage at your local Massage Heights Retreat.

Our Sports Massage is dedicated to those who live a particularly active lifestyle. We offer two different styles of Sports Massage to meet your specific needs: pre-activity and post-activity massage. Pre-activity uses dynamic stretching to allow the connective tissue to work through a full range of motion to help reduce possible injury, while post-activity focuses on helping the muscle tissue that may have been impacted doing a particular sport recover. Post-activity Sports Massage also involves long strokes to flush out the toxins that cause soreness in the muscles and joints.

Whether you're a regular athlete or have just had an active weekend with friends and family, a Sports Massage can help you prevent or recover from injury and reduce pain.
