Sports Massage Sherwood Park — Sports massage is designed for active individuals — athletes, weekend warriors, and anyone whose body takes a regular physical load. At our Sherwood Park clinic, treatments are built around your activity and recovery goals. The right session before or after activity can be the difference between stronger performance and a preventable injury. You don’t need to be competing to benefit — if you’re active in Sherwood Park, this treatment is for you.
What to Expect During Your Sports Massage Appointment
Each session starts with a quick assessment so your therapist can understand your goals and focus on the areas that need it most. Techniques may include deep tissue work, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and sport taping depending on your condition.
Pre-event sessions are more energizing and aimed at preparing your muscles for load. Post-event treatments focus on recovery, reducing soreness, and identifying areas of imbalance before they become injuries. Whether you’re training at Millennium Place, running Broadmoor Lake Park, or recovering after a game at Sherwood Park Sports Centre, the approach adapts to where you are in your training cycle.
Some tenderness is normal during deeper work — communication with your therapist throughout the session helps them adjust pressure and get the most out of your time. After your massage, expect to feel more balanced and refreshed. You’ll leave with simple stretches or recovery tips to support your progress between sessions.

What to know
Before Your Visit
Arrive Early
A few minutes before your appointment lets you complete paperwork and settle in before treatment begins.
Eat Light
Avoid heavy meals for 1–2 hours beforehand. A light snack is fine — an empty stomach can cause lightheadedness.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and after. Hydration helps flush out waste released during treatment and reduces post-session soreness.
Dress Comfortably
Wear loose-fitting or athletic clothing that allows free movement. Your therapist will advise on draping based on your treatment.
Communicate
Share your concerns, injuries, and goals before the session starts — and keep the dialogue open throughout so adjustments can be made in real time.
Rest After
Skip intense activity after your session and give your body time to integrate the treatment.
Follow Aftercare
Your therapist may prescribe specific stretches, exercises, or self-care strategies. Following through ensures the best long-term results.
Medical Clearance
If you are pregnant, undergoing cancer treatment, or recently injured, consult your healthcare provider before booking. Your safety comes first.

FAQ
Do I have to be an athlete to get a sports massage?
No. Sports massage techniques benefit anyone with an active lifestyle — gym-goers, weekend warriors, cyclists, and recreational players. The label "sports" refers to the style of treatment, not the recipient.
When should I book — before or after training?
Both. Pre-event massage uses lighter, activating techniques to prepare muscles for performance. Post-event or recovery massage is deeper and focused on flushing waste and reducing soreness. We can tailor the session to your timing.
How is sports massage different from deep tissue?
Sports massage incorporates deep tissue techniques alongside more dynamic methods — assisted stretching, compression, cross-fibre friction, and movement-based work — with performance and recovery as the specific outcome goals.
Is sports massage covered by insurance?
Yes. Our therapists are Registered Massage Therapists, so sports massage is covered by most insurance plans that include RMT services. Direct billing available.
