Sports massage therapy
Massage therapy is a therapy with many benefits for the health and well-being of the client. Many different techniques can be used, depending on your needs and goals. The therapeutic approach can reduce the effects of stress on the body and help reduce muscular tension. Massage therapy is suitable for almost all types of clientele and is practiced in a professional setting. All our massage therapists belong to a recognized federation or association.
Even if you’re accessing massage therapy in a sports setting, you’ll have access to a calm, restful environment to get the most out of your treatment, in a closed room. At your appointment, the massage therapist will ask you about your goals for treating or preventing an injury, and will use the techniques he or she deems necessary to optimize your needs.
Sports massage therapy is not just for athletes, but for anyone who is active on a regular basis. Sports massage aims to preserve mobility and relieve muscular tension resulting from training. It is also frequently used in prevention and in preparation for sporting events.

Therapeutic massage is an increasingly popular treatment for chronic pain performed by an orthotherapist. It can also help prevent the onset of various muscle and joint dysfunctions. By focusing on fascia (the fibrous membranes that cover muscles) and muscle chains, as well as tensions and spasms, this type of massage effectively targets your painful areas.
The discomfort caused by pain is reduced, as is the risk of the problem worsening if left untreated.
Massage therapists can use therapeutic cupping for a variety of reasons, including pain relief (e.g. neck pain, low back pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, tendinopathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.).
Since they have a direct action on blood circulation and create space in the area being worked on, suction cups have many benefits, for example:
- Relief of acute or chronic pain
- Improved joint flexibility and mobility
- Reduced muscular tension
Stress reduction and relaxation
Our massage therapist will begin the session by gathering information. To do this, he or she will ask the client to fill in a health questionnaire and interview them to determine their needs and identify any contraindications to massage. He'll also want to know if the client has ever received a cupping massage, and whether or not the skin marks easily.
Since they produce a suction effect, suction cups may leave marks at the application site.
Cupping can be used at any time during the treatment and on many different parts of the body.
