How Many Types of Sports Massages Are There?
There are different types of massages depending on what the client wants to achieve:
Preventative, maintenance, pre-competition, intra-competition, post-competition, and within sports rehabilitation.
Sports massages should be performed every 4 to 6 weeks, as it is very important to have the body prepared to avoid injuries and continue with a good rhythm in the sport you practice.
It depends on the proximity of the competition or the daily sports routine you have.
Pre-competition massage: The goal is to increase muscle wakefulness, circulation, muscle temperature, tissue elasticity, and decrease muscle pain.
Post-competition massage: It is performed so that the athlete has a quick recovery, helps in the elimination of waste products from the body created during the effort, reduces hypertonia, prevents cramps, and increases blood supply.
