Sports Massage & Soft-Tissue Therapy in Portsmouth & Fareham
At South Coast Rx, we offer both sports massage and soft-tissue massage as part of our treatment options — whether as standalone services or integrated into a broader rehabilitation plan. These hands-on techniques are designed to support recovery, manage pain, and optimise physical performance.
Whats the difference?
Sports Massage
Sports massage is a focused and often deeper treatment, typically used to address areas of tightness, muscular restriction, or overuse from training or sport. It is ideal for athletes and active individuals looking to improve mobility, reduce post-exercise soreness, or prepare the body for performance. Our specialists use techniques such as deep tissue work, trigger point release, and stretching to provide effective sports massage in Portsmouth and Fareham.
Soft-Tissue Massage
Soft-tissue massage is a gentler, more general approach that promotes circulation, relaxation, and muscle recovery. It is suitable for those with high levels of muscle tension or fatigue, individuals early in their rehab journey, or anyone seeking relief from daily stiffness and stress. This method can also be beneficial for people with sensitive tissues, chronic conditions, or lower pain thresholds.
We will adapt our technique to you
Our team will always take the time to discuss your goals and choose the most appropriate technique for your needs. Whether you are in the middle of a training block, recovering from an injury, or just need to unwind, massage therapy at South Coast Rx is tailored to help you feel and move better.
