Massage is the most effective therapy for releasing muscle tension and restoring balance to the musculo-skeletal system. Received regularly massage helps athletes prevent injuries, which might otherwise be caused by overuse. A constant build up of tension in the muscles from regular activity may lead to stresses on joints, ligaments, tendons, as well as the muscles themselves.

These muscle imbalances may develop and often go undiagnosed until they are serious enough to cause the athlete discomfort or impede performance. Tanya will be able to detect variations in the soft tissues and by using the correct techniques, help you, the sports person maintain a much healthier physical state.
