Debunking Myths Around Sports Massage

Sports massage is increasingly acknowledged, but myths can obstruct its efficient use. Here are some debunked:

  • Myth 1: Sports Massage is Only for Injured Athletes
    Contrarily, it’s both a preventive measure and performance enhancer, promoting muscle health, flexibility, and mental well-being.
  • Myth 2: Sports Massage Should Always Be Painful
    Though it often involves deep tissue work, unbearable pain isn’t the norm. Excessive pain can even be counterproductive.
  • Myth 3: All Massages Are the Same
    Sports massage is distinct from relaxation massage, catering specifically to athletes.
  • Myth 4: Sports Massage Provides Immediate Results
    While some benefits are instant, the deeper advantages of sports massage build over time.
