Who can benefit from massage? Remedial and sports massage can be both a stimulating and relaxing treatment, designed to meet the needs of people who have suffered muscle, tendon, or ligament damage. It can also be used to prevent such damage. Anyone who sits at a computer for much of their day will overuse some muscles and underuse others. Such muscles then require loosening to prevent chronic tension developing. Athletes who use one set of muscles in their chosen sport can become unbalanced through not using the corresponding muscles. The under-developed muscles benefit from strengthening and reactivating before lack of use becomes a problem. Tennis and Golfer's elbow can benefit from massage during rehabilitation. People who spend many hours driving can experience lower back pain, which massage can help relieve. Massage can also benefit anyone who's had a spell in hospital, or whose limbs have been immobilised, such as after a fracture, to increase muscle tone and restore function. One way or another, most of us become muscularly unbalanced, which can then lead to non-muscular problems. Your massage therapist will be able help restore function and rectify deteriorating conditions.
