Percussive Massage

What is percussive massage?

Percussive massage is a specialized treatment for soft-tissue pain. Concentrated, rapid, short-duration pulses reach deep into the tissues, increasing blood flow to the area for pain relief and a better range of motion. It also gently stretches the muscles and connective tissue.

Benefits

• Relaxes thickened connective tissue and fascia
• Breaks down adhesions and internal scar tissue after injury or surgery
• Increases venous and lymphatic circulation
• Elongates muscle fiber where spasms, stiffness and restrictions are present
• Increases range of movement by relieving stiff joints

Is it right for me?

Percussive therapy is for anyone interested in injury correction, injury prevention and sports performance. Common conditions include muscle soreness, shin splints, spasms and cramps, TMJ syndrome, bursitis, tendonitis, herniated or bulging discs, carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica and fibromyalgia.

Rehabilitation

Percussive massage can speed the rehabilitation of muscles injured through trauma, surgery or disease. Its contractions help strengthen muscles for people who may not be able to take part in physical therapy, and stimulate muscles to prevent atrophy from non-use.

Sports training

Percussive stimulation improves muscle tone and balance, relieves tightness, and reduces the stress placed on bones and joints. It brings more oxygen and nutrients into the muscle and reduces fatigue and soreness.

Not an athlete?

Absolutely fine. Percussive massage is for anyone looking to heal old injuries, or simply live a balanced, healthy life.
