Product Description
This continuing education course is a nice review of sports massage. The purpose of sports massage is to help athletes prepare for optimal performance, recover from big events, and function well while training. Since sports massage involves the therapist concentrating on one particular problem area for the duration of the treatment, it is also useful for chronic pain sufferers, those recovering from injuries, or those with limited range of motion. It is a form of Swedish massage that involves stimulation of blood and lymph circulation, as well as trigger point therapy.
