Sports undeniably offers a great number of benefits to the body and mind. Studies both old and new have shown that sports are beneficial to the athlete in more ways than one: it improves his mood, shapes up his body, relieves his stress, and even builds his self-esteem. However, while the advantages of athletics are indisputable, it poses a lot of hazards as well. From minor bruises to major bone dislocations, the list of dangers linked to sports could be endless.
With these threats in mind, many athletic organisations and programs have integrated sports massage therapy into its curriculum. This field of physical therapy usually requires the services of a licensed masseur or physical therapist and is done before, during, and after games. Why? A massage performed before the contest permits the player to be as flexible as possible because his muscles are relaxed, allowing adrenaline to flow. In the event of an injury during the game, an immediately applied massage can reduce the swelling of an injury and temporarily provide relief. After the game, a pressing down can hasten the relaxation of the athlete's body, which may be bruised or fatigued from both the physical and mental stresses during the game. To sum it up, sports massage therapy is essential to keep the athlete in tiptop shape. However, no matter how relaxed you are with the application of a sports massage, nothing beats the reinvigorating effects a yoga holiday at Lemas Gardens would bring to the mind, body, and soul!
