How Can The Urban Oasis Massage Therapists Help Me With Sore Muscles?

You’ve started the year strong! You resolved to get in better shape in 2023, and you’re making it happen. Getting stronger and increasing your flexibility will help you feel better, look better, and live your best life. Now let’s talk about your sore muscles!

When force is applied to your muscles, they lengthen, causing muscle soreness, and creating tiny tears in your muscle fibers. Your body will respond with increased inflammation, joint stiffness, tenderness to the touch, and redness.

What Will An Urban Oasis Massage Therapist Do To Reduce Muscle Soreness?

Here at Urban Oasis, we understand how to help ease the pain and discomfort caused by sore muscles.

Our board-certified massage therapists know that one of the best ways to reduce the pain and discomfort of sore muscles is to use stretches. Because stretching reduces neural activity in your muscles, the soreness sensation also decreases. Stretching also circulates blood away from your muscles and back to your heart to aid recovery.
A recent study shows that kneading muscles after strenuous exercise decreases inflammation, allowing them to recover. The study findings conclude that massage may help relieve soreness and also help muscles become fitter faster. Our massage therapists use proven techniques to help you get back to normal.
The Urban Oasis Sports Massage technique uses compression, deep-transverse direction, and stretching to prepare your body for activity or help it recover after athletics. This service is ideal for people with chronic muscle stress or injuries, such as athletes or those with incredibly tight muscles due to repetitive work, by applying long, slow strokes to specific areas of tension and pain.
