Sports massages aren’t just for those who take part in a lot of athletic activity. Although traditionally used as a way of eliminating athletes’ pain caused by injury, they have a variety of physical and mental benefits, whether you are very physically active or not:

• Reduce pain and stress
• Reduce anxiety
• Prevent delayed onset muscle soreness
• Flush toxins from the body
• Increase flexibility
• Increase mobility
• Help to repair damaged muscles
• Improve athletic performance

Three different types of technique are employed in a sports massage: Effleurage, Petrissage and Frictions. The massage usually begins with Effleurage, which involves using the palm and fingers to stroke the body, exercising various levels of pressure in the process. Petrissage is kneading deeper tissue to make the client relax, while stretching muscle fibres and encouraging the movement of fluids. Frictions are used to benefit scar tissue and lesions, and separate muscle fibres, particularly important for those experiencing pain and injury.

Royal Retreat can administer a highly professional sports massage to help alleviate any pain, aid you in recovery or simply revitalise your entire mind and body. For a massage that helps you to rebuild your physical and mental strength, this is the one for you. A 60 minute treatment costs AED 250.
