Sports Massage Near Plantation, FL | VDM & Massage
Specialized massage therapy for athletes — prevent injuries, speed recovery, and perform at your peak.
What Is Sports Massage?
Sports massage is a targeted therapy that combines multiple techniques — including Thai stretching, deep tissue pressure, and myofascial release — to support athletic performance and recovery. Whether you're preparing for an event, recovering after competition, or managing a recurring soft-tissue issue, sports massage at VDM & Massage is designed for how your body actually moves and performs.

What to Expect
Your therapist will ask about your sport, training schedule, and any areas of concern before beginning. Pre-event sessions focus on activation and loosening tight muscle groups. Post-event sessions address soreness, lactic acid buildup, and inflammation. Maintenance sessions combine both to keep your body performing optimally throughout your training cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I schedule a sports massage — before or after training?
Both have distinct benefits. Pre-event sports massage (24-48 hours before) focuses on activation, circulation, and loosening. Post-event massage (within 48 hours after) focuses on recovery, soreness reduction, and inflammation management. Maintenance massage between events keeps your body performing optimally.
How is sports massage different from deep tissue massage?
Both use firm pressure, but sports massage is more targeted to athletic movement patterns and incorporates assisted stretching, joint mobilization, and sport-specific muscle group work. Deep tissue focuses purely on releasing chronic tissue tension.
