Sports Massage in Chicago

A sports massage session is specially designed to suit individual needs. Some elements of sports massage are used in other physical therapy settings and to treat non-sports-related conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome.

Examples of techniques used in sports massage include:

  • Swedish massage
  • Stroking (stroking)
  • Petrissage (kneading)
  • Compression
  • Friction
  • Tapotement (rhythmic beats)
  • Vibration
  • Slip
  • Stretching
  • Percussion
  • Trigger points

 

Deep Tissue Massage vs. Sports Massage

Deep tissue massage is based on similar sports massage techniques such as stroking, but is often used as a full-body massage with firm pressure rather than targeting a specific area. However, it may be more targeted when used to treat neck pain or chronic low back pain, or to relieve pain during childbirth.
