What is Sports Massage?
Sports massage is a specialised form of massage therapy designed to prevent and treat injuries, improve flexibility, and enhance recovery. While it is particularly beneficial for athletes, anyone can benefit from sports massage to relieve stress, improve posture, and address muscular imbalances.

What should I wear to a Sports Massage appointment?
We recommend that sports massage clients wear clothing that allows easy access to the focus area. At the beginning of your session, your therapist will discuss the best approach for your treatment, using towels when needed to expose specific areas while ensuring your comfort. Above all, wear something you feel most comfortable in.
Sports massages typically focus on areas of the body that experience the most stress or tension, depending on your lifestyle or activities. Common target areas include the back, shoulders, and neck for those dealing with posture-related strain, as well as the legs, calves, and feet for athletes or gym-goers. Other key areas include the arms, hands, and hips, which can be impacted by repetitive motions or overuse. By concentrating on these specific regions, sports massage helps to alleviate tension, promote flexibility, and enhance overall muscular health.
Are Optimise Sports Massages covered by private health insurance?
Unfortunately, our Sports Massages are not currently covered by private health insurance.
I’m classed as an elderly patient. Will a sports massage bruise me?
Sports massages are tailored to each individual, taking factors like age, skin sensitivity, and overall health into consideration. While bruising is uncommon, it can sometimes occur if the skin or tissues are particularly fragile. Our therapists use appropriate pressure levels to ensure your comfort and safety, adjusting techniques to suit your needs. If you have concerns about bruising or skin sensitivity, please let your therapist know before the session begins.
