Relative contraindications

Prior assessment is required for serious circulatory problems or uncontrolled hypertension, active oncological processes, acute muscle tears during the first 72 hours, and pregnancy, in which case we adapt the position and techniques to ensure your safety.

What are the benefits of sports massage?

It quickly relieves muscle pain and contractures, increases flexibility and joint range of motion, activates blood and lymphatic circulation, reduces physical and mental fatigue, and effectively prevents micro-fibre tears and overloads.

What side effects can it have after the session?

When working on deep tissues, it is normal to notice, for 24-48 hours, muscle soreness or stiffness due to intense pressure, general tiredness from relaxation of the nervous system, local redness of the skin and slight transient inflammation in the areas of greatest release.
