What is sports massage?

Sports massage is a results-driven treatment built around how the body is being used. It combines deep pressure with stretching, joint mobilisation and techniques such as muscle energy work and soft tissue release, and the therapist will usually assess posture and range of movement before starting.

Despite the name, it is not only for athletes. Runners and gym-goers use it to speed recovery and keep flexibility; office workers use it for the same reason, because sitting for eight hours loads the body as surely as training does. It is also the most common massage treatment used alongside physiotherapy for hamstring, calf, shoulder and lower-back problems.

Sessions are typically 30 minutes for a single area or 60 for a fuller treatment. Pre-event sessions are short and brisk; post-event and maintenance sessions are slower and deeper. Therapists holding a Level 4 sports massage qualification will say so on their profile.

Where to find it in London

Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Chelsea hold the high-end clinics and hotel spas, where ninety-minute treatments and a few days' notice are the norm and rates run a third above the rest of the city. Soho and Shoreditch are younger and later, with studios open until ten and a strong showing of Thai and deep tissue work for people coming straight from the office. Kensington and Paddington have the largest number of independent therapists working from their own treatment rooms, and Canary Wharf is almost entirely a weekday market: mobile massage to offices and hotels, sports and back treatments booked at lunchtime, and very little at weekends.
