Frequently Asked Questions - Southampton Marathon Sports Massage

A Southampton Marathon sports massage is a specialised treatment designed for runners. It targets muscle groups commonly stressed by endurance running, helping to reduce tension, improve flexibility, and speed up recovery before and after race day.

Pre-race: Ideally 2-3 days before the marathon to loosen tight muscles and prepare your body.

Post-race: Within 24-72 hours after the marathon to aid recovery and reduce soreness.

During training: Regular sessions (every 2-4 weeks) to prevent injuries and improve mobility.

Our sports massage sessions typically last between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on your needs and the areas being treated. Longer sessions can be booked if you need more comprehensive care.

No! While our sports massages are ideal for marathon runners, anyone experiencing muscle tension, stress, or recovery needs can benefit. Whether you’re preparing for a race or dealing with everyday muscle tightness, our therapists are here to help.

Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the muscles being treated. For most treatments, you’ll remain partially clothed, and we use towels for privacy during the session.

Sports massage may cause some discomfort, especially if muscles are tight or fatigued, but it should never be painful. We work with you to adjust the pressure to your comfort level. Mild soreness after the massage is common but should subside within a day or two.
