Sports Massage Phases

Each phase has its own set of rules regarding timing, duration, benefits, expected outcomes, and techniques. The skillful and appropriate application can mean the difference between qualifying and not qualifying, winning or losing, or setting a personal best.
Pre-Event: We help prepare you for the event! Massage is used near the start of the competition.
Inter-Event: We assist you in calming down and preparing for the next event. The massage is beneficial in between your scheduled events.
Post-Event: We assist you in relaxing and recovering following the competition. It is a valuable part of the cool-down process.
Restorative/Training: We assist you in training more intensely and at a higher level. Massage is incorporated into an athlete's training regimen.
