Understanding the Experience
-
A sports massage is a targeted treatment that focuses on muscles used during physical activity. It helps reduce soreness, improve flexibility, and support recovery and performance.
-
Sports massage can help release tight muscles contributing to anterior pelvic tilt, such as the hip flexors and lower back. However, long-term correction also involves stretching, strengthening, and posture work.
-
It works by increasing blood flow, breaking down muscle adhesions, reducing inflammation, and improving range of motion. It can be both preventative and rehabilitative.
-
It is best to rest for 24 hours after a deep sports massage, especially if intense pressure or trigger point work was used. Light activity is fine, but avoid strenuous workouts.
-
You typically need to complete a massage therapy program, earn your license, and pursue specialized training or certification in sports massage techniques.
