What is Sports Massage?

Sports massage is the management, manipulation and rehabilitation of soft tissues of the body including muscles, ligaments, and tendons. At Samuel Jones' Ludlow clinic, it is widely used on all people suffering injuries to alleviate their symptoms and create a sound foundation for recovery. 

This sports massage practitioner is also a qualified osteopath who is hugely experienced in the management of orthopaedic conditions, has thorough high level anatomical knowledge, and offers high quality sports massage therapy and rehabilitation techniques using the most current methodology.

What can I expect from a Sports Massage treatment ?

Samuel Jones' sports massage treatments are specific to the individual's requirements. The consultation process educates the individual and facilitates progressive recovery. 

Sam will chat with you and discuss a suitable recovery treatment programme and will give you a tailored sports massage treatment. 

You may be advised on lifestyle changes, nutrition, or may be recommended rehabilitation exercises particular to your symptoms or condition.

Can Sports Massage help flexibility?

Sports massage treatment can be sometimes be uncomfortable but muscular flexibility will improve as muscle stiffness reduces. 

Muscular knots form 'trigger points', small areas of decreased blood flow or lactic acid build up within the muscle, which cause localised or referred pain and the sport massage treatment works on these areas to speed your recovery and enhance flexibility. 

The treatments combine well with primary care services and you will be asked to give information about your medical history and current treatment provision.

Gender Specific Techniques

Sam remains as one of the few male sports massage practitioners in Ludlow and is very sensitive to the needs of various genders. You will be treated with dignity and respect according to your specific requirements. You will be draped with a cover during treatment and Sam can leave the room whilst you change should you wish him to. 

Sam is capable of strong sports massage techniques to alleviate stress and torsion in the musculature but is also mindful and sensitive - sports massage treatment can be modified to use gentler techniques if required. The “no pain, no gain” theory is not a core treatment belief in this clinic.

Why combine treatments?

Sam Jones may suggest the use of, in addition to the sports massage and with your permission, Osteopathy and/or Acupuncture ... at no extra cost!

"Whether you come for your first consultation or you are a regular, I will always assess the presenting ailment and look for the most appropriate solution."

K Tape (Kinesiology tape)

Kinesiology tape or K Tape is now broadly used in many different sporting disciplines because, unlike other orthopaedic supports, K Tape is applied very specifically. K Tape accurately supports injured muscles potentially reducing pain, improving blood flow, and maintaining optimal range of motion in the fascial network of the body. 

K Tape can also be used in First Aid to support injured joints (sprains) and reduce oedema (swelling) thereby hastening the body’s ability to recover and rehabilitate. Because it drys quickly, it can also be left applied during and after showering or bathing.
