Benefits of Self Massage

09 November 2011

This article is about the benefits of self-massage, although it’s hard to beat the skilled hands of a licensed massage therapist, sports therapist or physiotherapist. When combined with a skilled assessment of an athlete’s needs at a given time of their training year, hands-on soft-tissue therapy can be invaluable. But in reality, this is not always practical or affordable for athletes. The best way for athletes to stay on top of their recovery and regeneration is to use a combination of self-massage and visits to a clinic or treatment room for hands-on work. I recommend athletes commit to at least one hands-on treatment per month.
