During a sports massage, your therapist will begin by discussing your health sports injury, and lifestyle to assess your needs. Depending on the client's preference and comfort level with draping, it can be fully clothed or unclothed. You will then be asked to lie on a massage table with towels for privacy and warmth. The therapist may apply creams, oils, and massage tools to make the massage more comfortable.

Sports massage does not have fixed massage techniques as it customizes to the individual's training needs and any injuries or conditions they may have. It incorporates various techniques from other disciplines, such as physiotherapy and osteopathy. Some of the methods used in sports massage include:

​

• Soft tissue release: Involves applying pressure to tissues and muscles, then stretching them

• Neuromuscular technique: Focuses on trigger points in the nervous system to reduce pain and tension

• Positional release: Used to relax overly-active muscles

• Fascial release: Deep, slow kneading targets connective tissues around the muscles.

• Swedish Massage: effleurage, petrissage, tapotement, friction, and vibration, which all aid fluid circulation and the softening of connective tissue

• Assisted Stretch: PNF Stretch

• IASTM: Myofascial Decompression and Cupping Therapy
