Massage therapy is a long-term solution for muscle performance and injury rehabilitation and prevention. It takes time and several sessions to achieve the intended effect. Most of all, it requires the skills of a professional therapist. But the time and resources spent on sports massage are worth it for the pay off.
The articles you will read are taken from a sports medicine journal. Articles from the journal include current trends in sports massage therapy, rehabilitation and clinical trial studies. For many clients it seems to be a rite of passage, if the treatment has not.

If you were to come in for general loosening before or after an event then one would normally be enough. You need to do your bit too! Improve your posture, warm ups and warm downs, stretching after a run. All these are crucial to keeping you well balanced. It can be painful from time to time as you work out bits of tension and 'scar tissue' but it doesn't always have to be.

As an elite athlete, I am generally tight and always sore. I found Savva to be such a profound professional sports massage therapist. He is very well educated and knowledgeable in his field of work. I would definitely recommend booking in within Savva if you're serious about sports message therapy. A++

I can’t recommend Savva enough. After years of chronic pain I decided to try massage therapy. The work Savva has done has literally helped to transform my life. Savva is kind, caring, professional and attentive. I have seen Savva a number of times and each time after my pain is reduced. Massage therapy and my work with Savva has been the most effective form of treatment I have had so far. Outstanding service. Effective and transformational. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Originally went to Savva after being frustrated at the lack of progress I was getting from another physio regarding my plantaar fasciitis , Savva diagnosed me swiftly and within two sessions I was healed and two years on i haven’t had any pains. My son suffered as well during the first lockdown and again within two sessions was pain free. I am seeing Savva now after some back and knee trouble and two half hour sessions have helped me no end. Would recommend to anyone , Savva is very knowledgeable and professional and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for physio / sports injuries

After my first sports massage with Savva, I found the treatment really effective as there was a significant improvement. Savva offers a very professional and thorough treatment, with precautions with regards to covid.
Savva asked all the right questions to understand my issues and made me feel very relaxed.
Would highly recommend Savva.

I have been visiting Savva for the past four years for various sports related injuries and general body aches and soreness. I had a lower back issue which Savva has been regularly treating to ensure I maintain my health andngeneral mobility. As a group exercise fitness instructor, I experience a lot of tightness in my calves and glutes and Savva has been great in relieving my muscle tightness through 2-3 month regular deep tissue massages. Great friendly service and very quick replies to schedule in last minute appointments. Very professional and has provided email support during lockdown when
