Sports Massage & Neuromuscular Therapy in Cork City
At Shane Sull Fitness in Hollyhill, Cork City, I provide professional sports massage and neuromuscular therapy (NMT) to relieve pain, restore balance, and improve movement. Each session looks for the root cause of discomfort — not just the symptoms.
Sports Massage Therapy or Deep Tissue Massage is a great way to get relief from aching pains, stiffness or poor mobility that may have been caused via participating in sport or from poor posture due to work environment or daily habits.
I have qualifications in sports massage therapy which allows me to provide treatment on sports injury or treatment on anyone who suffers from aching muscles, stifness or mobility issues.
Recently I have built a new room in the gym dedicated to physio in my gym in Hollyhill, Cork City.
Sports Massage Therapy at Shane Sull Fitness
This is offered by myself, a qualified sports massage therapist, through the use of palpation on muscles and tissues to pin point areas of injury.
I will then use whatever sports massage techniques will work best to free up the area of dysfunction or the area that is causing a person pain or aches.
The goal of these techniques is to help reduce or remove pain, remove adhesions in muscle tissues and restore normal function to the injured areas.
Sports Injury Treatments…
Once a client comes in for a consultation, I will assess and go through the individual’s background to understand what caused the injury in the first place.
- We then go through a few tests to check for range of motion and other tests on muscles, tissues, joints etc.
- Once we have all the information we need then I proposes a plan and use the best hands-on techniques to free up the areas of pain and discomfort.
I will then use sports massage, deep tissue massage, soft tissue release, mechanotherapy and whatever other techniques are required.
