What Is Sports Massage?
Sports massage is a targeted, hands-on therapy that focuses on treating soft tissue aches, pain, and injuries associated with physical activity. Unlike a relaxation massage, sports massage uses deeper pressure and specific techniques to address muscular imbalances, reduce tension, and promote faster recovery.
At DL Performance Therapy, Derek Lyons combines sports massage with deep tissue and remedial techniques to create a tailored treatment plan for every client — from elite athletes to everyday individuals dealing with chronic pain or postural issues.
