TORONTO MASSAGE THERAPY

Medical massage therapy has been part of athletic training for centuries. Athletes use massage to recover faster from training demands on the body. Massage is used to stimulate an athlete for the athletic activity or calm him in order to achieve the optimal performance. Massage therapy is very effective in treatments of athletic injuries. Massage therapists have been an integral part of athletic teams from Olympic Games to local competitions or tournaments.

Sports massage in Toronto is provided by registered massage therapists who have an extensive training in anatomy, physiology, pathology, mobilization techniques and remedial exercises. Their knowledge of training protocols and demands on the body helps them to address appropriate recovery or treatments of athletic injuries.

Restorative massage increases blood and lymph circulation and helps with removal of metabolic wastes from muscles. Stretching of muscle disrupts adhesions that form as a result of training muscle strain. Pre-event massage stimulates body for athletic performance, warms up and stretches muscles while freeing joint movement. Post-event massage either prepares body for further activity or acts as restorative massage. Massage and hydrotherapy modalities are beneficial in elimination of overtraining.

Massage therapy is used on regular basis as preventive care to maintain muscle tone and flexibility.
