Therapist massaging client’s leg muscles during a sports recovery massage in Reno

Active in the mountains, gym, or on the field? Our sports recovery massage in Reno helps you bounce back faster, reduce soreness, and keep performing at your best.

What Is Sports Recovery Massage?

Sports recovery massage combines deep tissue, stretching, and targeted techniques to support active bodies. Unlike a general relaxation massage, this approach focuses on reducing muscle fatigue, improving circulation, and helping your body recover after intense physical activity.

Benefits of Sports Recovery Massage

Faster Muscle Recovery

Whether you’re a skier at Mt. Rose, a mountain biker on Peavine, or a gym regular, sports recovery massage helps flush out lactic acid, reduce soreness, and restore flexibility.

Injury Prevention & Performance Boost

By addressing tight spots before they become injuries, massage keeps your muscles supple and balanced so you can move freely and perform with confidence.

Pain Relief for Active Lifestyles

From stiff shoulders to aching legs, targeted pressure and stretching ease chronic tension, allowing your body to stay mobile and pain-free.

Sports Recovery Massage in Reno for Everyday Athletes

You do not have to be a professional athlete to benefit from sports recovery massage. Many of our Reno clients work long hours at desks or on their feet, leading to tight hips, lower back strain, or shoulder tension.

Regular recovery sessions can help reduce these everyday aches while improving posture, flexibility, and body awareness. Whether you are training for a marathon or simply staying active in your daily routine, this massage keeps your muscles ready for whatever comes next.

What To Expect During Your Session

At Reno Massage Tree, your therapist will start by understanding your activity level and current areas of soreness or restriction. Sessions may include:

  • Deep tissue techniques for stubborn knots
  • Assisted stretching to restore mobility
  • Trigger point release to ease specific pain points
  • Relaxation techniques to support nervous system recovery

Each massage is tailored to your needs, whether you’re preparing for a race or winding down after a weekend of adventure.

Why Choose Reno for Sports Recovery Massage?

Reno is a hub for outdoor adventure including skiing, hiking, cycling, running, and more. With all that activity, your body deserves care that matches your lifestyle. Reno Massage Tree specializes in helping active people recover quickly so they can get back to doing what they love.
