London Marathon Sports Massage

Bionic If you're competing in this year's “2015 London Marathon” and your hoping to improve your performance, then short of acquiring super-powers (requires being bitten by radioactive spiders or being involved in freak laboratory accidents) or resorting to risky genetic enhancements (also has unknown side-effects!) then you should consider having a “Sports Massage” sometime before the race day. There are no harmful side-effects to sports massage, any side-effects are all beneficial. Here are just some of the benefits you can expect:

  • Removal of lactic acid from the muscles (the cause of most muscle soreness)
  • Increased muscle and ligament stretchability (they are more elastic and spring back more quickly)
  • Improved micro-circulation (blood gets to where it needs to be, quicker)
  • Enhanced healing and repair (quicker healing and recovery from intense workouts)
  • Higher level endurance (You can run further and faster and for longer!)
  • Reduces pain levels also minor aches and soreness (You don't feel the pain so much and decreases DOMS – delayed onset muscle soreness)
  • Helps to break down scar tissue (we all have some, and scar tissue impedes your performance)
  • Increases muscle relaxation (loose muscles perform better)
  • Reduces anxiety (releases endorphins – the “feel good” chemicals so it relaxes the body and mind together)
  • Prepares the body for further physical exercise (it invigorates the body preparing it for action)
  • Helps to prevent injuries (decreases the possibility of injury during competition)
  • Increases the range of motion of most joints within the body (you have a longer reach/stride etc.)

… and so on, and so on.
