Sports Massage

Whether you’re a seasoned athlete, weekend warrior, or just getting back into your fitness groove, sports massage is a powerful tool to support your recovery and performance. This targeted therapy focuses on muscles used during physical activity – running, crossfit, cycling, golf, tennis, marathon, hockey – helping to reduce soreness, improve range of motion, and speed up your body’s natural healing process.

At Armory Massage in Syracuse, New York, we tailor each sports massage session to your needs—whether you’re preparing for a race, recovering from a tough workout, or addressing chronic tension from repetitive movement. We integrate techniques like deep tissue work, myofascial release, and stretching to relieve tight areas and support muscular balance, so you can move with strength and ease.  A variety of deeper therapies and stretching such as myofascial release, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, and neuromuscular therapy, combine to address specific concerns within three contexts: pre-event, post-event, and injury treatment.  At one session, a Swedish Massage base may be appropriate to freshen and oxygenate the muscles. At another time, a focus on Deep Tissue Massage techniques may be in order to release restrictions and increase flexibility.

Received regularly sports massage may help athletes prevent injuries and overuse.
