FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a sports massage and a regular massage?

‘Regular’ massage therapy is often a holistic treatment which focuses on relaxation and easing tension, whereas a sports massage pinpoints a specific grievance and uses a range of specific techniques to reduce pain and aid recovery.

Do sports massages hurt?

This is a common misconception, as this massage therapy is associated with athletes and relief from strenuous physical activity. However, sports massage can be a beneficial form of physical therapy for non-athletes. As with any massage, we will work with you to ensure the massage is as comfortable as possible, with varying levels of pressure.

How much does a sports massage cost?

We offer a 60 minute appointment for Sports Massage which costs £55.
