Massage can be effective for relieving those annoying aches and pains built up over time.
When repetitive movements create adhesion's (more commonly known as knots) the flexibility is compromised and your range of movement is limited.
Every movement creates habit, from stiffness due to being desk based to training in elite Sports.
Your body will adjust accordingly tightening up areas which are not regularly moving or too moving too frequently carrying load.
Deep tissue techniques help realign deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue increasing your range of movement.
Analysis all aspects of your lifestyle not just your occupation or level of activity is key to understand where and why you are getting this tightness/pain.
Massage is essential to get you back to your best, and once there to maintain it. Many of my clients see it as pre-hab so you can avoid rehab.
