Sports massage downtown: high-performance recovery
A neuromuscular release and activation protocol built around your training plan. We work the dynamic muscle chains to speed up recovery, restore your mobility and prepare the fiber for the next impact.
The recovery session chosen by those who run, train and compete downtown.

Do not let fatigue turn into injury
Training hard while you put in your work day asks more of your body. Overload and the lack of timely recovery are among the main causes of injury that take you off the track or out of the box.
Tailored planning
Protocols matched to your current phase: loading, recovery, pre or post competition.
Biomechanical efficiency
Loosening of tendons and fascia to optimize the athletic gesture and prevent shortening.
Corporate punctuality
Slots optimized so they fit around your work schedule and your training.
Understand to recover
What happens to your muscle after training
Sustained effort upsets the physiological balance of the fiber. After a strength or endurance workout, the tissue goes through several processes:
-
Structural micro-injury
Exertion causes micro-tears in the sarcomeres and triggers a controlled inflammatory response: DOMS (delayed-onset muscle soreness).
-
Ischemia from hypertonia
The fatigued muscle stays partly contracted, compresses the capillaries and delays the arrival of fresh blood and the clearing of lactate.
-
Dynamic fascial adhesions
The fascia thickens to protect the overworked area, reduces the smooth glide of the muscle and alters joint biomechanics.
How sports recovery works
Intense pressure combined with longitudinal friction and deep kneading deforms the elastic tissue and stimulates the Golgi tendon organs, which order an immediate relaxation of the muscle. The reflex hyperemia floods the area with oxygen, speeds up cell repair and sweeps away the stagnant waste, returning elasticity to the muscle chains.
How we work
Our 4-phase protocol
Each body and each sport calls for a different approach. We adjust the session to your moment in the plan: loading, recovery or competition.
- Min 1-5
Phase 1
Load assessment
We review your training history and locate the overloaded areas for your discipline (quads and hamstrings in runners; traps and lower back in CrossFit).
- Min 5-15
Phase 2
Hyperemia and activation
Fast friction and surface passes that raise the local temperature and lower the viscosity of the connective tissue, preparing the area for deep pressure.
- Min 15-45/75
Phase 3
Fascial release and PNF
Deep-tissue work to break down fascial restrictions, plus assisted stretching with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) to restore joint range.
- Last 5 min
Phase 4
Closing cryomassage
Cold-effect cryogenic gels or venous-emptying maneuvers to bring down post-massage inflammation and promote clean circulatory return.
After the session
How to care for the recovery in the first 24 hours
Active recovery
Avoid maximum intensity or speed work for the next 24 hours. A gentle regenerative jog or light mobility is better.
Hydroelectrolyte replenishment
Muscle clearance calls for water. Add fluid with mineral salts or electrolytes to help flush the toxins released in the session.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about sports massage
How many days before a marathon or race should I get a recovery session?
The ideal is to schedule the deep recovery session 3 to 5 days before the competition. That gives the tissue the biological time to recover from the intense pressure, clear any residual soreness and reach race day with optimal muscle tone, flexible and at full power.
Is it normal for a sports massage to hurt?
We work with high intensity because of the athlete's muscle rigidity, but never beyond your tolerance threshold. The therapist regulates the pressure constantly: it is a "releasing pain" that eases as the fibers relax and the tissue regains its circulation.
Can I get a sports massage if I am not a professional athlete?
Yes, absolutely. The service is designed for anyone who trains regularly: gym, running, weekend football. We adapt the intensity of the session to your level of physical load and the muscle condition of the day.
