ACT Sports Massage Is all about women's health and wellness in sports with sports massage, PNF stretching, and myofascial cupping treatments.
$90-1-Hour Adult Sports Massage.
$50 Teens 1/2 Hour Sports Massage.
Sports massage and stretch therapy are for adults and their children who are athletes.
You might want the sports massage for yourself because of the sports you play or your teens that play basketball, football, dance of all kinds, etc. The sports massage session can typically be used before, during & after athletic events. The purpose of a sports massage and stretch therapy is to prepare the athlete for peak performance, relieve swelling, drain away fatigue, reduce muscle tension, promote flexibility, and prevent injury or help with an injury.
This type of massage can be useful for anyone with chronic pain, injury, or range of motion issues and it has stretch therapy within it. When you strenuously and frequently use your muscles like, if you're really into weightlifting, they can become chronically tight or hypertonic, which can make you more susceptible to tears and pulls.
Relaxing and loosening muscles increases flexibility and range of motion in the joints and helps to reduce swelling. To put it really simply, making your muscles less stiff is really good for moving them around.
A number of techniques can be combined including but not limited to just remedial massage, deep tissue massage, & myofascial trigger point release as it helps to break down adhesions & improves muscle tone, myofascial release, also PNF stretching, which was originally developed as a form of rehabilitation, which is very effective. Stretching can assist in improving the range of motion using PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) is a more advanced form of flexibility training, which involves both the stretching and contracting of the muscle group being targeted.

I now use a relaxation massage oil by CaronLab with a calming blend of Lavender and Tea Tree essential oils to soothe tired, aching muscles,

Some Of The Benefits Of A Good Sports Massage.
Sports Massage helps increase the flow of blood and oxygen to your tissues. This allows your body to recover faster from training and perform at its peak.
Most strokes used in sports massage are similar to those utilised in therapeutic massage. What differentiates the two is the goal. Sports massage aims to improve exercise performance and muscle function. Therapeutic massage emphasizes stress relief and well-being.
During a sports massage session, the massage therapist focuses on the muscles and tissues that are overused and stressed.
Most athletes experience increased flexibility and range of motion, greater endurance, and reduced muscle pain after a massage. This therapy helps healing and prevention of injuries, leading to faster recovery. It’s an excellent choice for athletes as well as for people with limited mobility, chronic pain, or injury.
It can have health benefits which can include:
Better flexibility and movements within the joints.
Pain relief.
Reduced recovery time.
Increased energy and stamina.
Improved mobility and flexibility.
Muscular relaxation.
Improved blood flow.
Reduced inflammation.
Enhanced sports performance.
Improved mood.
Stress and anxiety relief.
Stronger immune function.
Lower injury risk.
Scar tissue breakdown.
Better sleep.
Improved tissue elasticity.

Mum And Her 2 Teen Ages.
Ray is an amazing massage therapist who I highly recommend. I've also taken my athletic teenagers with sore muscles to see him and they felt so much better afterwards. Ray is very responsive and always try’s to work around what time suits us. Very glad I found his services. Jenny 07/2023 Google review.

Glad Ray was recommended to me, usually quite hesitant on trying someone new. Have always had ongoing issues related to being an athlete. He has made my day to day a lot more manageable with reducing pain, tightness, as well a significant decrease in migraines. Very adaptable with treatment dependant on how your body is feeling. Flexible with times. Easy going and welcoming presence. Would 100% recommend Ray and will continue to see him for his great work. Teaghan 2021 On goggle review

Elite Tokyo Olympic Athletic
I've been seeing Ray regularly in the lead up to competing in the Tokyo Olympic Games, and his care and communication as a massage therapist is outstanding. Ray is exceptionally friendly, professional, knowledgeable and has tailored to my changing needs week to week with patience and consideration. He's particularly helped with both upper and lower back pain, as well as general aches and pains due to the training load of elite level sport. Would not hesitate in recommending. Thanks Ray!

Gym Training
I've been going to Ray for sports massage, trigger point therapy and stretching for years! He is the only remedial massage therapist I have been to that takes the time to work on my problem areas to release the tension in my muscles which helps in my recovery from weightlifting and keeps me mobile to perform my lifts with full range of movement. Highly recommend! Nicky 2020 on Goggle review and more on Goggle

ACT Sports Massage 2022 Goggle review.
Trigger point therapy might be tough at the time, but as soon as I left I felt instant relief. I had a tight back and shoulders on my first visit. Much looser as soon as I left. Then had some work on my tight ITBs that were pulling on my knee. So much better after some work on them. Great work Ray. On ACT Sports Massage goggle review. Karen 2022

Ray has got to be the best trigger point therapist in Canberra it helps so much with relieving sore points in my body, Thanks again Ray. Glenda 2022 Goggle review.

Ray knows his stuff, best massage I have had to release tightness in my lower back and hips, walked out feeling loose and much more at ease. Trigger point treatment is not for the faint hearted, but it certainly gets results. Great results after 2 sessions and I will be back on a regular basis for maintenance. Karen 2022 Goggle review.

Could already feel the difference after one visit relieving the tension in my neck so I wasn’t hunched over.
Highly rate Ray. Adam 2022 Goggle review.
