Sports Massage Involved in a sport? Work out at the gym? Sports Massage targets specific muscle groups that are used in sports activity. Some of the benefits of sports massage are to prevent injury, improve flexibility, improve performance, relieve stress, relieve sore and stiff muscles, improve circulation of blood and lymph fluids, decrease lactic acid, flush out toxins and speed recovery. Deep Tissue Massage Do you feel tight? Deep Tissue massage uses more intense pressure and focuses on deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue using techniques that are slower in speed, but sink deeper into the tissue to lengthen, release and relax deeper layers of the body. It's a more focused type of massage that will release any chronic muscle tension or knots you may have. While it shouldn't hurt, it's likely to be a bit more uncomfortable than a classic massage.
