Sports massage can promote recovery and prevent overuse. It can encourage training adaptations by improving muscle efficiency. Being based along a regular bus route, a five minute drive from the local train station, ease of transport and parking availability, provides stress free access for sports massage therapy Buckinghamshire as well as Hertfordshire and Oxon.
Tight muscles are less elastic and more susceptible to tearing. Tight muscles do not function at their best due to stagnation of compressed blood vessels and restricting the movement of fluid.
Healing processes reduce when an injury affects the mobility. Sports massage stimulates the healing processes by warming tissues and dilating blood vessels, increasing local blood flow
Restores flexibility and improves range of motion by reducing muscle tension. Massage induces relaxation and separates muscle fibres and adhesions. Muscles can then be lengthened.
By promoting confidence in using the affected injured tissue, tension and anxiety may be reduced. Prevents further musculoskeletal imbalances. Instilling confidence is what V-Active Sports Therapy does.
Complex movements need more than one muscle to work, if one doesn’t contract properly, it can impact all of them and cause compensation issues long term. At V-Active Sports Therapy we address the imbalances and assess the impact that the imbalances have on the rest of the body in order to prevent further or future injury.
Lifestyle, surroundings and occupation can cause imbalances and have a greater effect than sport. Being a desk worker can commonly impact the hamstrings, the shoulders, the neck and lower back. Simple acts such as carrying a bag over one shoulder or using one hand to operate a mobile phone can kick start minor imbalances which can become chronic with time.
Pressure where the intensity increases so that everyday tasks become more difficult to complete. The emotional stress can be seen in tight muscles especially in the shoulders and neck, back and cause postural issues.
Imbalances can be exacerbated by playing one sided sports or favouring the dominant side. The dominant being more stronger and a reduced range of motion in the affected joints.
Bad habits can develop which can negatively influence the posture. Careers where there is a physical imbalance of weight being carried around the waist can mirror onto the posture unconsciously due to compensation of attempting to correct the posture at the same time.
Muscles start to weaken within 24 hours of immobility. Illness can cause muscle fatigue, stiffness and weakness which can affect posture and gait.
