Sports massage is a form of deep tissue manipulation that targets specific muscles to enhance their functionality and recovery. Techniques such as effleurage, Petrismetje's treatment, and myofascial release can help reduce muscle soreness, improve circulation, and increase range of motion in athletes' legs. Proper warm-up, consultation with professionals, and hydration are also crucial for effective sports massage practice. As technology evolves, incorporating sensors into sessions may further enhance customized routines and efficiency. Continuous education and training on techniques help practitioners improve their skills and better serve athletes.
