A sports massage is the manipulation of the soft tissue (muscle) in order to prevent or improve sports injuries.

A sports massage differs of a Deep Tissue as being more area-specific, focussing on larger and older knots that have built up over longer periods of time due to high training volume, trauma, muscle imbalance or poor biomechanics.

The objective is either to aid the recovery from injury, the prevention of injury, or to assist performance through helping boost power production and the range of motion.

Do techniques used differ between a deep tissue and sports massage?
