Sports and Fitness massage is intended to relax your body after a normal routine exercise. It is beneficial for athletes or sports-minded individuals before and after competition. Maintenance and rehabilitative sports massage is to enable constant body balance of the athlete in preparation for the next competition.

           Frequently asked questions:

• What is a sports massage?

Sports Massage is a type of massage especially utilized for sports athletes. It can be fast-paced or slow paced. It depends on the level of athletic activity - pre-sports event, during-sports event, post-sports event, rehabilitative, restorative, and maintenance.

If you have a specific problem, sports massage can help alleviate -tender knee, maybe from running, a frozen shoulder or a pulled hamstring. A pulled hamstring could be a result from a stronger than normal force applied to this muscle during a routine fitness exercise. So, it does not really mean that sports massage is only for athletic competition or for athletes.

• What is a fitness massage?

Fitness massage is a terminology that is interchangeable with sports massage. It is commonly construed as a precisely controlled manipulation in massage to realign the body by releasing connective tissue adhesions for greater mobility, flexibility and balance.

• How can I relax after my routine exercise if sports and fitness massage can be a rapid stroke massage?

You will be relaxed. You can ask the massage therapist the strokes or modalities tailored to your needs.

• Where is the place for the massage?

You can arrange an outcall in your residence or as a Gold's Gym member, you can have a chair massage on site. This has to be set-up with the management.

• I have a medicare and health insurance that includes massage, can I charge my fee to the insurance company or medicare?

This is a million dollar question. Insurance companies are hesitant to pay for massage services unless maybe if it is a company sponsored fitness health insurance.

• How long is sports and fitness massage performed?

You can have a 30 minute or an hour massage.

• How much is the fee for this procedure?

Gold's Gym members have a 10% discount. Regular fee for non-members is $65 per hour and $35 for half-hour.
