For runners, either elite or beginner, the more miles you run the more strain your muscles are subjected to. Hence sports massage is beneficial to runners for many reasons:
1) Reduces muscle inflammation and soreness
- Sports massage helps reduce soreness by flushing out the lactic acid which is produced while running
- Improves circulation to tissues
2) Reduces muscle tension and fatigue
3) Reduces the risk of potential muscle injury
4) Promotes muscle flexibility by removing lactic acid
5) Reduces muscle recovery time
6) Improves mental alertness
Massage, applied skillfully, is the most effective therapy for releasing muscle tension and restoring balance to the musculo-skeletal system. Received regularly this may help athletes prevent injuries, which might otherwise be caused by overuse.
