Top Reviews of Newcastle Sport Massages at Naturally Heaven Therapy

Katie
I booked a sports massage with Michael the physiotherapist and I was really pleased with the whole experience. He really listened when I was outlining the issues I was having as well my past injury history - always so friendly and understanding. He was responsive during the massage and let me know what he was doing and what was coming next. He gave me some exercises to do in the meantime to help me with my injury. I will definitely be making another appointment as I had so much more mobility afterwards and even today after doing the exercises he suggested. Thanks so much, Michael!

Sports Massage FAQ’s

What is Sports Massage?

«

Sports massage is a targeted form of massage that focuses on areas of muscular tension, stiffness and fatigue. Your therapist uses a combination of massage techniques and pressure tailored to your needs, activity level and areas of concern.

Despite the name, you don’t need to be an athlete to have a sports massage. It can be suitable for runners and gym-goers as well as people experiencing muscular tension from work, exercise or an active lifestyle.

What's the difference between a deep tissue and a sports massage?

«

Deep tissue massage tends to be a full body massage; a sports massage targets a specific area of the body that needs assistance with healing or relief.

Is sports massage painful?

«

Sports massage can involve firmer pressure than a relaxation massage, and areas of muscular tension may sometimes feel tender during treatment. However, your massage should always remain manageable and be adapted to your comfort level.

Michael and Craig will communicate with you throughout your treatment and adjust the pressure where needed. If you prefer a gentler or firmer massage, simply let your therapist know.

How much does a sports massage cost?

«

A 60-minute Sports Massage at Naturally Heaven Therapy costs £54. Treatments are tailored to your individual needs and areas of muscular tension. You can book online or view our full treatment price list.

Is sports massage only for athletes?

«

No — despite the name, sports massage is beneficial for anyone with tight muscles, postural tension or physical stress. Many of our clients are office workers, runners, gym members and people with physically demanding jobs.

How often should I have a sports massage?

«

There’s no single schedule that suits everyone. How often you book will depend on your activity level, muscular tension, preferences and reasons for having sports massage. Michael or Craig can discuss this with you following your treatment.

Can I combine sports massage with physiotherapy?

«

Yes. Sports massage and physiotherapy can be used alongside each other where appropriate. If you're unsure which service is most suitable for your needs, our team can help you decide whether to book sports massage or an appointment with our physiotherapist.

Do you offer sports massage for runners and gym-goers in Newcastle?

«

Yes — at our Four Lane Ends Clinic we regularly treat runners, weightlifters, CrossFit members and endurance athletes across Newcastle and surrounding areas.
