Sports Massage FAQ At Pur Hertfordshire & Bishop's Stortford Clinic
Sports massage doesn’t need to hurt to be effective. When the muscles are tight and sore, massage can become tender but this can be tailored to you by your clinician. Some people prefer a very deep massage, so if you want it firmer just say. Others prefer a lighter massage so again, if its too firm, just say.
When preparing for an event, whether it’s a 10k, the marathon, a cycling event, or any other event, we recommend regular sports massages leading up to it to reduce injury risk and aid recovery after training.
We do not recommend having a massage on the morning of the event.
We do recommend having a massage following the event, either the same day or following day to reduce delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS) and aide recovery
Unless you are coming in with an injury, then no you will not need an assessment. Just book a massage, come in and enjoy!
