We can all appreciate that there are not many better feelings than getting a massage but the feeling of contentment after an intense sports massage is on another level. With our professional aftercare, you can benefit from our physical conditioning regime to compliment your bespoke treatment package. Sports massages are way more than just a relaxing treatment, they improve performance and boost recovery, the perfect post-treatment treat to help you stay looking your best. We incorporate these into our professional aftercare packages as they differ from a cosmetic or superficial ‘chill out’ treatment you’d find at a spa. It offers an intensive and focused physical therapy administered by qualified professionals.
If you’ve not had one, we would definitely recommend you to try, especially following our bespoke treatments at 3D Ultimate. To get the most from your treatments, we’ve put our top 8 reasons together with for getting a Sports Massage here.
More mobility with professional aftercare
Relaxing your body is vital in helping your bespoke treatments have maximum impact and a professional sports massage targets the soft tissue to increase mobility and flexibility. When our professionals give you a sports massage, they prevent the tightening and toughening of muscles by correctly stroking the soft tissue in repetitive motions, both longitudinally and laterally. This not only improves muscular mobility, but it can also correct any imbalances and release accumulated tensions around the muscles.
Ease ‘sticky’ bones
Our specific techniques and approaches can separate fibres that could have either become ‘stuck’ to one and another, or to other soft tissue structures around them. However, with tailored strokes, these will loosen, break the links and again, help with fluid movement of the muscles and mobility. The best thing is that these massages can also be tailored to your needs. If you have an area that needs extra attention, let our professionals know and they will spend extra time focussing on what you need.
Stronger blood flow
If your muscles were to become tough and rock-like, this can squeeze out all of the blood and nutrients that help to keep them loose and not stiffen them up. Our professional aftercare focusses on better circulation through massaging of the muscles to improve the supply of nutrients to tissues around your body. This improves upon your bespoke treatments as well as leaving your body feeling new and looking great for longer. Not only this, but this is great for aiding in healing and repair should your body need it as your blood vessels dilate and widen during the massage to allow better oxygen passage.
Professional after that promotes relaxation
The best thing about our sports massages (Slightly bias we know, but trust us) is that your sensory receptors are stimulated which respond to touch. As your body relaxes, more and more endorphines are released which lift your mood and more importantly de-stress your body. A relaxed body will always enhance the results of your bespoke treatments further and every professional aftercare package can be tailored to exactly what you want and need.
No downtime
When you come to 3D Ultimate, you are dealing with professionals who understand and appreciate the importance of busy lifestyles. All of our treatments have no downtime and that is the same for our professional aftercare packages too. This means you get to return back to your lifestyle, whatever it may be with minimal impact. If you’re an active individual or have a laborious job, getting a sports massage actually eases delayed onset muscle soreness as the pumping and squeezing action of the massage stokes will encourage blood and lymph flow throughout your body. This can help prevent muscle fatigue as well as encourage better oxygenation.
