SPORTS MASSAGE PASCOE VALE
Whether you're training for a race, playing weekend footy, or just pushing hard at the gym, your body needs more than rest days to keep up. Sports massage at Diverse Myotherapy helps you train harder, recover faster, and stay off the sidelines, right here in Pascoe Vale South.
Sports massage is hands-on treatment designed specifically for active bodies. It combines deep tissue work, stretching and joint mobilisation to address the tight muscles, overuse strains and movement restrictions that come from training and competing. It's used both to treat existing niggles and to keep you performing at your best before they become injuries.
Pre-event vs post-event massage
Sports massage isn't one-size-fits-all. Before an event, we use lighter, faster techniques to warm up muscles and sharpen movement without leaving you sore. After an event, we go deeper and slower to flush out fatigue, ease muscle soreness and speed up recovery. Tell us what you're training for and we'll tailor the session to it.
We regularly treat runners, footballers, cyclists, swimmers, gym-goers and weekend warriors of every level, not just elite athletes. Common issues we treat include tight calves and hamstrings, sore quads, shin tightness, shoulder and rotator cuff strain, IT band tightness, and general overuse soreness from training load. If you're getting back into exercise after time off, sports massage also helps your body adjust without breaking down.

what can sports massage help with?
Remedial massage treats general pain, tension and injury for anyone. Sports massage uses many of the same skills but is applied with an athlete's training cycle in mind, working around competition dates, training loads and performance goals. If you're not sure which is right for you, just ask when you book and we'll guide you.

Sports massage uses many of the same deep tissue techniques as a regular massage, but it's applied with your training and performance goals in mind rather than pure relaxation. Sessions are tailored to your training schedule and recovery needs.
Not at all. Sports massage isn't just for elite athletes, it's suitable for anyone who exercises regularly, plays social sport, trains at the gym, or simply leads an active lifestyle. Many clients book it to manage tightness and prevent injuries before they become bigger problems.
This depends on your training volume and goals. Some people benefit from regular sessions every few weeks, others book in before a major event or after an intense training block. Your therapist can recommend a schedule once they know what you're training for.
Diverse Myotherapy provides tailored sports massage treatment for active people of all levels across Pascoe Vale, Coburg and Brunswick. Whether you're a runner, footballer, cyclist, gym member or weekend warrior, treatment is built around your sport and recovery needs.
Sessions from $85, with private health rebates available with all major funds.
