When can a sports massage be done?

Sports Massage is recommended for people who are active-not just athletes. It was designed to prepare an athlete's muscles for a sports event. Sports massage can assist in preventing injury because it helps to condition the muscles and stimulates circulation of blood and lymph. Some sports massage therapists are also trained to facilitate the break-up of adhesions to reduce strain and fatigue. There is a focus on trigger points and tight muscle areas with this massage. Sports teams with professional athletes hire sports massage therapist for their staff because athletes must keep muscles flexible and strong. The sports massage is given before an event to stimulate muscles, during an event to help prevent injury, and after an event to restore muscles to their normal state. Spa Massage Therapists may be able to do this type of massage, but you are more likely to find a sports massage therapist in a health club/gym setting.

Do massage therapists often work overtime?

Giving massage can be physically demanding; a good school will teach proper body mechanics so that the weight of the body is used to 'power' the strokes. Even so, detailed work like neuromuscular or trigger point therapy is hard on the thumbs. Stretches have to be done by all massage therapists to keep from getting carpal tunnel syndrome or thorassic outlet syndrome.


What sort of places can a massage therapist work?

Massage therapists can work in a variety of settings. It is the fastest growing Allied Health profession in the US.

The list is endless, as so is the list of potential clients since massage has come into the mainstream of public health. More appointments have been made for massages than visits to primary care physicians, family doctors, for the past two years in a row. There are many places where massage therapists might work. You might work at a massage parlor, fitness center, physical therapy office, spa, resort or at your own private office.
