✨It’s Running Season! ✨
Got a race date in the diary for the year? Or just lacing up for fun with the lighter nights drawing out?
Make sure you keep on top of your recovery with sports massage 🏃🏻♀️
Benefits of massage therapy for running include:
▫️Improved circulation - massage helps stimulate blood flow to the muscles, which is essential for delivering oxygen and nutrients, and removing metabolic waste products.
▫️Reduced muscle tension - the receptive motion of running can lead to tight leg muscles and imbalances. Massage can target these areas, releasing tight muscles and increasing flexibility.
▫️Increase flexibility and range of motion - massage helps increase flexibility and range of motion in joints which is beneficial for runners as this contribute to better running technique and reduce strain on muscles and joints.
▫️Faster recovery - sports massage can aid the recovery process by reducing muscle soreness and encouraging the removal of metabolic waste products.
▫️Injury prevention - muscle tension and can restrict movement and make injury more likely to occur. Massage can loosen off these tight muscles to help reduce the risk of common running injuries such as shin splints, runner’s knee, Achilles issues, and plantar fasciitis.
