For some it helps ward off anxiety before competition. The use of deep tissue, mobilization and stretching techniques will increase stimulation in the body before an event. Regular sports massage, even outside of an event, has been shown to improve speed, strength, endurance, flexibility, and shorten recovery time.
Deep Tissue focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues. It is especially helpful for chronic muscle tension and extremely contracted areas such as stiff necks, low back tightness, and sore shoulders. Some of the same strokes as Swedish massage are used, however this style includes deep compression with slower movement and deeper pressure concentrating on areas of tension and pain.
Myofascial release is a style of massage focusing on the connective tissues, or fascia, of the body.
