Hi, I’m Lauren! Based in Norwich, I’m a certified personal trainer with a passion for sports massage therapy. Having qualified as a sports massage therapist in 2024, I’m dedicated to using my skills to help you reach your health and fitness goals.

My journey into massage therapy stems from a deep-seated desire to support and empower individuals on their wellness journeys. Whether you’re an athlete looking to enhance your performance, someone recovering from an injury, or simply in need of some well-deserved relaxation, I’m here to tailor my approach to your unique needs.

What is a sports massage?

A sports massage is a type of massage therapy designed to enhance athletic performance, prevent injuries, and aid in the recovery of muscles after exercise or intense physical activity. It involves various techniques tailored to an individual's specific needs, which can vary based on the athlete's sport, fitness level, and any existing injuries. Sports massage is often used by athletes across all levels, from professional sportspeople to recreational fitness enthusiasts, to optimize performance and speed up recovery.

What are the benefits of a sports massage?

Sports massage offers a range of benefits that can improve both physical performance and recovery. Here are some of the key advantages:

Reduces Muscle Tension and Pain

Sports massage targets areas of muscle tightness, stiffness, and soreness, helping to relieve discomfort and promote relaxation. Techniques like deep tissue manipulation, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release help release knots and alleviate muscle pain, which is particularly beneficial after intense physical activity.

Speeds Up Recovery

By improving circulation, sports massage helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to muscles while flushing out metabolic waste products like lactic acid. This accelerates the repair and recovery process, reducing post-exercise soreness (DOMS) and allowing athletes to return to activity more quickly.

Prevents Injury

Regular sports massage helps maintain optimal muscle flexibility and address imbalances, reducing the risk of overuse injuries. By targeting areas that may be prone to strain, such as tight hamstrings or overworked calves, it helps prevent conditions like muscle pulls, tendonitis, or strains from developing.

Improves Flexibility and Range of Motion

Sports massage enhances muscle elasticity and joint mobility, improving flexibility and range of motion. This is particularly important for athletes, as greater flexibility can lead to better performance and reduce the likelihood of injury.

Boosts Performance

By keeping muscles relaxed and free from tension, sports massage ensures that athletes can perform at their best. Improved circulation, muscle function, and range of motion contribute to enhanced physical performance, whether in training or competition.
