Massage Therapy
Sports, Therapeutic & Deep Tissue Massage
Massage therapy is one of the most effective ways to support recovery, reduce tension, and improve overall wellbeing, and at Prime Sports Physiotherapy it sits at the heart of what we offer. Whether you are in heavy training, managing an injury, preparing for a race, or simply in need of some time to relax and reset, our experienced massage therapists provide treatments tailored entirely to you.
Our massage therapists work closely alongside our physiotherapy team, meaning your treatment is informed by clinical knowledge and designed to complement your rehabilitation, training programme, or wellness routine. This integrated approach sets us apart from a standalone massage clinic and ensures every session has purpose, whether that is supporting tissue recovery, reducing injury risk, or simply helping you feel like yourself again.
What treatments do we offer?
We offer a range of massage treatments to suit different needs. Sports massage targets the muscles and soft tissues most under demand from training and competition, helping to release tightness, improve circulation, and support faster recovery. Deep tissue massage works into the deeper layers of muscle to address chronic tension and stubborn areas of restriction. Therapeutic massage takes a gentler, more holistic approach, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and supporting overall wellbeing. Our back, neck, and shoulder massage is ideal for those carrying tension from desk work, daily life, or postural strain.
For runners, we offer dedicated pre and post-event massage to prepare the body for the demands of race day and support recovery in the hours and days that follow. Whether you are lining up for a parkrun or toeing the start line of a marathon, this treatment can make a real difference to how you feel before, during, and after your event.
What does an appointment involve?
Your session begins with a short discussion about your needs, goals, and any areas of tension or discomfort. From there, your therapist will use targeted techniques to relieve muscle tightness, reduce discomfort, and leave you feeling looser, lighter, and more relaxed. Our massage rooms are designed to enhance your experience, creating a calm and tranquil environment where you can switch off and allow the treatment to do its work or chat as you like.
How will it benefit you?
Regular massage supports faster recovery between training sessions, reduces the risk of injury, improves flexibility and range of movement, and has well-documented benefits for stress, sleep, and mental wellbeing. For those in physio rehabilitation, it complements physiotherapy by keeping surrounding muscles supple and reducing compensatory tension. For those simply looking after themselves, it is an investment in how you feel day to day.
Who is it for?
Our massage service is suitable for athletes, active individuals, and anyone carrying tension, stress, or discomfort. You do not need to be sporty or injured to benefit. If your body needs some care and attention, we are here to help.
