Expert Sports Massage Treatments in Evesham
We offer sports massage treatments across Evesham and the surrounding areas as part of our mobile massage service.
Sports Massage is a type of soft tissue therapy that is applied in a sporting context. It involves the manipulation of skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia to assist in correcting problems and imbalances within the body that are caused by repetitive, strenuous physical activity and trauma.
What are the benefits of Sports Massage?
Sports Massage comes with a number of benefits. These include:
- Greater flexibility and range of motion
- Improved performance
- Injury prevention
- Improved injury recovery
- Improved self-awareness and proprioception
- Pain reduction
Like many of our clients, we are results driven, with our long-term aim being to encourage a better balance within your soft tissue and ultimately better function in movement. We love to work as a part of a team, so if you have a coach, personal trainer or physio that you are already working with let us know. Sharing the same goals as the rest of your team will help us help you capitalise on your long-term goals.
What techniques are used during my treatment?
Sports Massage uses a variety of different techniques including:
- Soft tissue release
- Neuromuscular technique
- Muscle energy technique
- Friction
- Compression
- Trigger point technique
These techniques are designed to reduce hypertonicity within the muscles, ease sore or problem areas and increase range of movement as well as improve general health maintenance. The main focus of this treatment is to help you achieve your peak performance, to remain injury free as well as to support healing.

Whether you are an experienced athlete or have just started training for the first time, a Sports Massage is for anyone who enjoys regular exercise.
For those serious about their sport, this type of massage can also be incorporated into your regular training schedule to support your training or you may choose to have a pre or post event massage when taking part in a race or sporting event.
What injuries do you treat?

- Muscular tension (e.g. back, neck, shoulders and lower back pain)

Do you have an underlining health condition? We have a full list of contraindications on our website. However, if there is anything you are unsure of, please have a conversation with us. We will be more than happy to discuss your condition privately over the telephone as part of an initial consultation.
What can I expect from my treatment?
No sport is identical and no two athletes approach their training or competitions in the same way. At Jenkins Soft Tissue Therapy, we believe in tailoring your treatment to your unique needs. Our aim is to support you on your journey towards your peak performance and addressing muscular imbalances.
Initially we may conduct a postural analysis as well as range of motion testing and gait analysis to help give your therapist a clear understanding of your condition and your long-term goals. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a keen amateur, your treatment plan will then be tailored to your individual needs.
Book your appointment online or call us today on 07366 377107 for an informal chat or to book your treatment over the telephone.
If you are suffering from a chronic injury or non-sport-related complaint, it may be worth considering a Remedial or Deep Tissue Massage.
