Description

Working out with tense or stressed muscles can result in trauma to and abnormal healing of the muscles involved. Massage has been proven to be an effective tool for post-exercise muscle relaxation and reducing the extent of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS). Massage is also useful in helping your body produce endorphins. Endorphins are peptides secreted in the brain that have pain-relieving effects similar to morphine. Some studies indicate that endorphins may also be associated with a properly functioning immune system, reduced stress, and inhibition of the impact of aging on the body. Many athletes find massage to be therapeutic in other ways as well. Studies have overwhelmingly shown that massage can help with mental balance and a sense of wellbeing, thus helping you find your 'center' and focus. This in turn can assist you with performance. Sports massage helps with flexibility by relieving soreness and stiffness. This is accomplished by breaking down adhesions (knots in the muscles), increasing range of motion, and releasing endorphins. This in turn prepares the athlete for peak performance while reducing swelling and pain. Sports massage can be beneficial pre- and post-exercise, as well as being part of a regular workout regimen.
