At Apex Recovery Room, every sports massage is tailored to you.

 

Rather than following a routine, we'll discuss what's bothering you, assess how you're moving and use the treatment techniques that are most appropriate for your individual needs.

SPORTS MASSAGE IS FOR EVRYONE

Sports massage isn't just for professional athletes.

​

Whether you're a runner dealing with tight calves, someone who spends all day at a desk, a regular gym-goer with tired muscles, or simply feeling stiff and restricted, a tailored massage can be a useful part of looking after your body.

​

At Apex Recovery Room in Saffron Walden, I work with people with different lifestyles, training backgrounds and goals.

 

Your treatment isn't based on a standard routine, we'll focus on the areas that are relevant to you on the day, and use other methods such as cupping, assisted stretching and other treatments.

​

The aim is simple: help you move more comfortably, manage muscular tension and support your training and recovery.

You don't need to be a professional athlete to benefit from sports massage. It's suitable for anyone who regularly exercises, has a physically demanding lifestyle or simply wants to give their body some attention away from the desk!

WHO IS SPORTS MASSAGE FOR?

RUNNERS

Running places repeated demands on the calves, hamstrings, quads, glutes and hips. Sports massage can be incorporated into your wider training and recovery routine.

​

GYM-GOERS

Strength training can leave muscles feeling tight and fatigued. Targeted massage can help you manage muscular tension alongside sensible training and recovery.

​

SPORTS PLAYERS

Footballers, martial artists, cyclists and other active people can use sports massage as part of their overall recovery.

​

DESK WORKERS

Long periods of sitting can leave people feeling stiff through the neck, shoulders, back and hips. Massage can be combined with movement and mobility work to help you feel less restricted.

YOUR SPORTS MASSAGE

Your treatment isn't a standard routine.

Before we begin, we'll discuss what's bothering you, your lifestyle or training and what you'd like to get from the appointment.

​

I'll then tailor the treatment around you, using appropriate massage techniques, & other treatments such as cupping, assisted stretching and more based on the areas that need attention and how your body responds.

​

You don't need to know exactly what type of massage you need before you arrive. If you're unsure, we'll discuss what's going on and decide on the most appropriate approach together.

SPORTS MASSAGE OR DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE?

The terms sports massage and deep tissue massage are often used interchangeably, but a good treatment isn't simply about applying as much pressure as possible.

​

SPORTS MASSAGE

Focused around your activity, training, movement and recovery. Particularly suited to runners, gym-goers, sports players and active people.

​

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

Can involve working more specifically into deeper layers of muscle and surrounding tissue and may be suitable for areas of persistent muscular tension.

The most important thing is choosing the right approach for you.

WHY YOU SHOULD PICK APEX FOR YOUR SPORTS MASSAGE?

OVER 17 YEARS EXPERINCE

I have been working in massage for a long time! I work at different events such as boxing gyms and outdoor events. I also do my own Sports such as BJJ  and also go to the gym. I have been a gym owner for over 13 years!​

​

MORE TREATMENTS FOR YOU

Sports massage is the main bulk of a session. However, assisted stretching, cupping, IASTM  and more. This helps us get a huge amount of

benefit from the session.

​​

THE PRESSURE..

I understand that pressure can make or break a good massage for people. I can go as hard or as light as you need. However, sports massage / deep tissue massage does not have to be agony to be effective.

​

MANY TIME OPTIONS

From 45min sessions to the ultimate treatment which is 1hr 45min! I do not just do one option
