Sports Massage

At MHV Clinic, our expert sports massage therapists offer personalised sports massage therapy tailored to your specific needs. Whether you’re an athlete aiming to boost performance or recovering from physical activity, our treatments support your journey to optimal health. Importantly, sports massage complements osteopathic care, promoting recovery, reducing muscle tension, and enhancing mobility.

What is Sports Massage?

Sports massage is a specialised therapy designed to address the unique needs of active individuals. By targeting muscles and soft tissues, it helps alleviate soreness, improve flexibility, and prevent injuries. Consequently, it’s ideal for anyone engaging in physical activities, from weekend warriors to professional athletes. At MHV Clinic, our skilled therapists use evidence-based techniques to deliver measurable results.

Benefits of Sports Massage

Firstly, sports massage enhances blood flow, which accelerates muscle recovery. Additionally, it reduces tension, helping to relieve pain from overuse or minor injuries. For instance, regular sessions can improve joint mobility and reduce the risk of strains. Moreover, our treatments are customised to your activity level and goals, ensuring a personalised approach.

Why Choose MHV Clinic?

At MHV Clinic, our Sports Massage therapists are highly trained in delivering sports massage as part of a holistic treatment plan. Unlike generic massage services, we integrate osteopathic expertise to address underlying issues. For example, we assess posture and biomechanics to optimise your therapy. Furthermore, our clinic in London offers a welcoming environment, ensuring you feel supported throughout your visit.

Who Can Benefit?

Sports massage isn’t just for athletes. Indeed, anyone experiencing muscle stiffness, stress, or minor discomfort from physical activity can benefit from it. Therefore, whether you’re a runner, cyclist, or office worker with tension from prolonged sitting, our treatments can help. By combining hands-on techniques with tailored advice, we empower you to maintain an active lifestyle.

Sports massage near Oxford Circus

Our clinic is on Winsley Street, a short walk from Oxford Circus and Tottenham Court Road, so a session fits easily into a lunch break or straight after work.

What happens in a session

We start by asking about your training, your work and where you feel tight or sore. Your therapist then works on the muscles that need it, using firm, steady pressure that you can adjust at any time.

Before and after

• Wear or bring comfortable clothes
• Drink water afterwards
• Some muscle soreness for a day or two is normal
• Leave a day before a hard race or match

When osteopathy may suit you better

If pain is sharp, keeps coming back or follows an injury, an osteopathy assessment can find the cause. Many patients combine the two.
