Our sports massage combines deep tissue techniques with Thai stretching to help active people recover faster, move better and reduce the risk of injury. It is popular with runners, cyclists, gym-goers and weekend footballers from across Hertfordshire.
Recovery-focused deep work and stretching for active bodies.
Add Ashiatsu: walking on the back (Ashiatsu) can be added to any massage on request, and it is very popular. Just ask when you book or arrive. What is Ashiatsu?
All treatments take place in a private room at our salon on London Road, Woolmer Green. We have our own car park behind the shop with room for 6 cars, plus free parking in the adjacent roads.
Sports massage is firm, targeted work on the muscles you use most in training, combined with stretching to restore range of movement. Ours blends deep tissue techniques with Thai assisted stretches. You do not need to be an athlete: it also suits anyone who is physically active, from weekend gardeners to people who lift at the gym.
Traditional Thai massage is built around assisted stretching, so it fits naturally with sports recovery. Your therapist can combine firm oil work on tight calves, hamstrings, glutes or shoulders with Thai-style stretches for the hips and back.
For the oil-based parts of the treatment you undress to your comfort level and stay covered with towels. If you want mostly stretching with no oil, tell us and wear loose, comfortable clothes, or use the loose clothes we provide.
