Sports Massage in Louisville, KY
If you train hard, compete regularly, or place repeated physical stress on your body, sports massage can play an important role in performance, recovery, and injury prevention. At Soluna Massage, we offer professional sports massage in Louisville, Kentucky designed for active individuals, athletes, and anyone recovering from intense physical activity.
Our sports massage sessions are structured around when you need the work most—before an event to prepare your body, or after training to support recovery.
Recover to train at your best
What Is Sports Massage?
Sports massage is a focused form of bodywork designed to support athletic performance and physical recovery. While it uses some of the same techniques as therapeutic massage, the goal is different. Sports massage prioritizes muscle readiness, recovery timing, and movement efficiency rather than general relaxation.
If you’re dealing with chronic pain or ongoing muscular issues unrelated to training or events, our therapeutic massage in Louisville may be a better fit.
Post-Event Sports Massage (Recovery Focused)
Post-event sports massage happens after a competition, race, intense workout cycle, or prolonged physical stress. The focus is recovery, circulation, and calming the nervous system after exertion.
Post-event sessions help:
Increase circulation to support recovery
Reduce muscle tightness and soreness
Calm the nervous system
Restore normal movement patterns
Therapists use effleurage (stroking), petrissage (kneading), broadening compression, joint mobilization, and assisted stretching. Deep work is kept minimal, as muscles are still recovering from intense activity.
For clients who need deeper pressure after recovery has progressed, alternating with our deep tissue massage in Louisville can be effective.
Pre-Event Sports Massage (Performance Preparation)
Pre-event sports massage is designed to prepare muscles for activity. These sessions are more stimulating and focus on warming tissues, increasing circulation, and improving range of motion without causing fatigue.
Pre-event sports massage is ideal before:
Races or competitions
Heavy training days
Physically demanding events
This is not a relaxation massage. If stress relief is your primary goal, a different service may be more appropriate.
