Strong, Focused Recovery

More Than a Standard Deep Massage

Sports Recovery Massage is designed for people who carry strong muscle tension from exercise, physical work, long hours of sitting or repetitive movement.

Your therapist focuses on the areas that need the most attention and may combine firm massage, trigger point work, assisted stretching and optional back walking when appropriate.

Broad, Even Pressure

Deeper Work Without Sharp Pressure

Back walking uses the therapist’s feet to apply controlled pressure across larger muscle groups. The pressure is broad and even, which can feel more comfortable than concentrated elbow pressure for some guests.

This technique is optional and is only used when appropriate for your body and comfort level.
