A sports massage is a targeted, therapeutic treatment designed to address the specific demands that physical activity places on your body. It goes beyond general relaxation to work directly on the muscles, tendons and soft tissues that are stressed during exercise, sport or physical work. Your therapist combines deep tissue techniques with stretching, compression and trigger point therapy to relieve muscle tension, accelerate recovery and help prevent injuries before they happen.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Despite its name, sports massage is not exclusively for elite athletes. It benefits anyone whose body is regularly under physical stress \u2014 from weekend runners and gym-goers in Berlin to cyclists, climbers, dancers and people with physically demanding jobs. If your muscles are working hard, sports massage helps them recover faster and perform better.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

What sets sports massage apart from other treatments like\u00a0<\/span>deep tissue massage<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/span>relaxing massage<\/a>\u00a0is the focus on functional movement and athletic performance. Your Massage Lab therapist does not just release tension \u2014 they assess how your muscles are functioning, identify imbalances and restrictions, and use targeted techniques to restore optimal movement patterns. The result is a treatment that not only feels good but measurably improves how your body moves and recovers.<\/span><\/p>\n

With Massage Lab’s mobile service in Berlin, you receive professional sports massage in the comfort of your home. No travel to a clinic means more time recovering and less time in transit \u2014 exactly what your body needs after training.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/themassagelab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Fkoagg2wNkg_DaBsmnkCg_zcDJVnsA.jpg” title_text=”Fkoagg2wNkg_DaBsmnkCg_zcDJVnsA” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_class=”ml-section-grey” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”60px||60px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”When to Book a Sports Massage” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The timing of your sports massage affects which techniques your therapist uses and what outcomes you can expect. There are three distinct types of sports massage, each serving a different purpose in your training cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Pre-Event Massage<\/h3>\n

Booked 24\u201348 hours before a race, match or intense training session. Your therapist uses brisk, stimulating techniques \u2014 fast-paced effleurage, compression and light stretching \u2014 to increase blood flow, warm the muscles and prepare your body for peak performance. Pre-event massage is typically shorter (30\u201360 minutes) and focused on the muscle groups you will use most. Popular with Berlin runners before marathon events, triathletes and competitive athletes.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Post-Event Massage<\/h3>\n

Booked within 24\u201372 hours after intense physical activity. Your therapist uses slower, deeper techniques to flush metabolic waste (lactate), reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and begin the tissue repair process. Post-event massage helps you recover faster so you can return to training sooner. Ideal after long runs in the Tiergarten, intensive gym sessions, cycling events or any physically demanding activity in Berlin.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Maintenance Massage<\/h3>\n

Booked regularly between training sessions \u2014 weekly, fortnightly or monthly depending on your activity level. This is the most comprehensive form of sports massage, addressing chronic tension, minor injuries and muscular imbalances before they become serious problems. Maintenance massage keeps your muscles supple, your joints mobile and your body performing at its best. The most popular choice among Berlin’s regular athletes and fitness enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_class=”ml-section-grey” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”60px||60px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”Benefits of Sports Massage” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Sports massage delivers targeted, measurable benefits for anyone who is physically active. Research published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine and the Journal of Athletic Training consistently demonstrates its effectiveness for recovery, injury prevention and performance. Here is what regular sports massage with Massage Lab in Berlin can do for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Faster Recovery<\/h3>\n

Sports massage accelerates recovery by increasing blood flow to fatigued muscles, flushing metabolic waste and delivering the oxygen and nutrients needed for tissue repair. Studies show that post-exercise massage can reduce DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) by up to 30% and significantly shorten the time between training sessions. For Berlin athletes training multiple times per week, this means more productive sessions and better results.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Injury Prevention<\/h3>\n

Prevention is always better than treatment. Regular sports massage identifies and addresses muscle tightness, fascial restrictions and movement compensations before they develop into injuries. By maintaining optimal muscle length and joint mobility, you reduce the risk of strains, sprains and overuse injuries that can sideline you for weeks. Many of Berlin’s competitive runners and cyclists book monthly maintenance sessions specifically for this reason.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Improved Flexibility and Range of Motion<\/h3>\n

Tight, shortened muscles restrict your range of motion and compromise your technique \u2014 whether you are running, lifting, climbing or cycling. Sports massage combines deep pressure with assisted stretching to systematically lengthen tight muscles and release fascial restrictions. The result is greater flexibility, more efficient movement patterns and reduced risk of compensation injuries.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Enhanced Performance<\/h3>\n

When your muscles are free from tension and adhesions, they contract more efficiently and with greater power. Sports massage optimises the neuromuscular connection, helping your muscles fire in the right sequence with the right force. Many athletes report feeling “lighter” and more powerful after a maintenance sports massage \u2014 their body simply works better.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Pain and Tension Relief<\/h3>\n

Training-related pain \u2014 whether from DOMS, chronic tightness or minor soft tissue injuries \u2014 responds exceptionally well to sports massage. Your therapist uses a combination of deep pressure, trigger point therapy and stretching to address the specific source of pain rather than just masking the symptoms. This is particularly effective for common Berlin athlete complaints: runner’s knee, IT band tightness, lower back pain and shoulder tension from desk work between training sessions.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-benefit-card” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Reduced Muscle Spasm and Cramping<\/h3>\n

Muscle spasms and cramps occur when fatigued or dehydrated muscles involuntarily contract and fail to release. Sports massage treats the underlying causes \u2014 muscle fatigue, poor circulation and fascial restriction \u2014 reducing both the frequency and severity of cramping. Regular treatment is especially valuable during periods of increased training volume or in the lead-up to events.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”60px||60px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”Sports Massage Techniques” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Your Massage Lab therapist draws from a range of specialised sports massage techniques, combining them based on your sport, your current training phase and your specific areas of tension or concern. Here are the core techniques used in sports massage.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Deep Tissue Work” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h3″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#1a2a3a” header_font_size=”18px” body_text_color=”#333333″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”#eef3f0″ custom_margin=”||24px||false|false” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” border_width_left=”4px” border_color_left=”#00ada1″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Firm, focused pressure applied along the muscle fibres using thumbs, knuckles, elbows and forearms. This breaks down adhesions and scar tissue in the deeper muscle layers, restoring healthy fibre alignment. Your therapist targets the specific muscles under greatest stress from your activity \u2014 hamstrings and calves for runners, shoulders and back for swimmers, quads and hip flexors for cyclists.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Soft Tissue Release (STR)” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h3″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#1a2a3a” header_font_size=”18px” body_text_color=”#333333″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”#eef3f0″ custom_margin=”||24px||false|false” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” border_width_left=”4px” border_color_left=”#00ada1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

A powerful technique where your therapist applies pressure to a muscle while simultaneously moving the limb to lengthen it through its range of motion. STR effectively “resets” tight muscle fibres, breaking adhesions and restoring optimal muscle length and function. It is particularly effective on chronically shortened muscles like the hip flexors, hamstrings and calf muscles.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Trigger Point Therapy” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h3″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#1a2a3a” header_font_size=”18px” body_text_color=”#333333″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”#eef3f0″ custom_margin=”||24px||false|false” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” border_width_left=”4px” border_color_left=”#00ada1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Sustained pressure on hyper-irritable points within tight muscle bands. These trigger points often refer pain to other areas \u2014 a trigger point in the gluteus medius, for example, commonly causes pain down the outside of the thigh. Your therapist holds pressure until the trigger point releases, then works the surrounding tissue to prevent recurrence.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Muscle Energy Techniques (MET)” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h3″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#1a2a3a” header_font_size=”18px” body_text_color=”#333333″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”#eef3f0″ custom_margin=”||24px||false|false” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” border_width_left=”4px” border_color_left=”#00ada1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Active stretching techniques where you gently contract a muscle against your therapist’s resistance, then relax while they move the joint into a greater range of motion. MET is exceptionally effective for increasing flexibility in stubborn areas and restoring proper joint mechanics. Often used on tight hamstrings, hip rotators and shoulder muscles.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Compression and Effleurage” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h3″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#1a2a3a” header_font_size=”18px” body_text_color=”#333333″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”#eef3f0″ custom_margin=”||24px||false|false” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” border_width_left=”4px” border_color_left=”#00ada1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Rhythmic compression applied directly to the muscle belly increases local blood flow and helps flush metabolic waste. Effleurage \u2014 long, flowing strokes towards the heart \u2014 promotes venous return and lymphatic drainage. These techniques are central to both pre-event warm-up and post-event recovery massage, helping your muscles prepare for and recover from activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your therapist guides you through passive and active-assisted stretches during the session, targeting muscles that are too tight or resistant to stretch effectively on your own. Assisted stretching under the hands of a skilled therapist can achieve ranges of motion that are difficult to reach with self-stretching alone, making it an invaluable part of sports massage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sports massage is a performance and recovery-focused treatment. It is the right choice if you are physically active and want to train harder, recover faster and reduce your injury risk. It is one of our most popular treatments among Berlin residents who take their fitness and sport seriously.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”Sports massage is ideal if you:” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Train regularly at the gym, run, cycle, swim or play team sports. Want to recover faster between training sessions. Are preparing for or recovering from a race, match or event. Have training-related muscle soreness, tightness or minor injuries. Want to address muscle imbalances and improve flexibility. Need pre-event preparation or post-event recovery. If you are dealing with chronic pain or deep tension that is not related to physical activity, our\u00a0<\/span>deep tissue massage<\/a>\u00a0may be more appropriate. For pure relaxation and stress relief, consider our\u00a0<\/span>relaxing massage<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/span>aromatherapy massage<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sports massage is not recommended if you have acute injuries (fractures, sprains less than 72 hours old), blood clotting disorders, deep vein thrombosis, skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area. If you are pregnant, have cancer, or have had recent surgery, please consult your doctor before booking. Your Massage Lab therapist always conducts a health screening before starting treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n

A sports massage is a targeted therapeutic treatment designed to address the specific demands that physical activity places on your body. It combines deep tissue techniques, stretching, compression and trigger point therapy to relieve muscle tension, speed recovery, improve flexibility and help prevent injuries. Despite its name, sports massage is not only for professional athletes \u2014 it benefits anyone with an active lifestyle or physically demanding routine.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”When should I get a sports massage \u2014 before or after training?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Both options are valuable, but they use different techniques. A pre-event sports massage (24\u201348 hours before activity) uses brisk, stimulating techniques to warm up muscles and prepare your body for performance. A post-event massage (within 24\u201372 hours after activity) uses slower, deeper techniques to flush metabolic waste, reduce muscle soreness and accelerate recovery. Maintenance massage between training sessions addresses ongoing tension and helps prevent injuries.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”How is sports massage different from deep tissue massage?” module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Both treatments use firm pressure, but they serve different purposes. Sports massage is specifically designed for physically active people \u2014 it combines deep pressure with stretching, compression and movement-based techniques to improve performance, prevent injury and speed recovery.\u00a0<\/span>Deep tissue massage<\/a>\u00a0focuses on releasing chronic tension and adhesions in the deeper muscle layers, and is more suited for persistent pain and stiffness regardless of activity level.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”Do I need to be an athlete to get a sports massage?” module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Not at all. Sports massage benefits anyone who is physically active \u2014 from regular gym-goers and weekend runners to cyclists, climbers and people with physically demanding jobs. If your body is under physical stress from regular activity, a sports massage can help it recover and perform better. Many of our Berlin clients are recreational athletes, fitness enthusiasts and people who simply want to feel better in their active bodies.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”How much does a sports massage cost in Berlin?” module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Sports massage with Massage Lab starts from \u20ac70<\/strong> for 60 minutes, \u20ac80<\/strong> for 90 minutes and \u20ac110<\/strong> for 120 minutes. The price includes travel to your Berlin location, professional setup, therapeutic oils and secure online payment. Each therapist is an independent professional who sets their own rates.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”How often should I get a sports massage?” module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

This depends on your training volume and intensity. If you train intensively four or more times per week, weekly sports massage is ideal. For moderate activity levels (two to three sessions per week), fortnightly massage is usually sufficient. For recreational athletes, a monthly maintenance session helps keep muscles healthy and identify issues early. Your therapist can recommend a frequency based on your specific training programme.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”Will I be sore after a sports massage?” module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_level=”h2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text module_class=”ml-faq-item” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Some muscle tenderness after a sports massage is normal, particularly if the therapist worked on areas with significant tension or adhesions. This is similar to post-exercise soreness and typically resolves within 24\u201348 hours. Drink plenty of water, avoid intense training for 24 hours after the session, and allow your body time to respond to the treatment. The long-term benefits \u2014 reduced pain, better mobility and faster recovery \u2014 far outweigh any temporary tenderness.<\/span><\/p>\n
