"University Sports Massage has been a terrific supplement to our training program! They have exceptional therapists that continue to play a huge role in injury prevention and recovery for our athletes. "I would personally like to thank University Sports Massage for all of their help during my career at The University of Florida. Placekicking causes a tremendous amount of stress on the body, especially in acute areas. I learned this lesson the hard way when I had to miss the 2010 football season with a lower back injury. After the injury, I started to see massage therapists from University Sports Massage regularly. The treatment I received from the therapist played a huge roll in my recovery. Any time I was experiencing pain or tightness, I would get a fifteen minute massage and would feel like new by the next day. One I completely recovered from my back injury, I would visit University Sports Massage Masseuses once or twice a week for maintenance work. The weekly massages helped me feel fresh for every game I played, in the 2011 and 2012 seasons. I realized just how good the therapists are at University Sports Massage, when I received massages from other therapist while playing in the EAST-WEST Shrine Game. The therapist at University Sports Massage are very detailed with their work and can help with any ache and pain, while the therapist I saw at the all star game gave very basic massages that never got deep enough to help with recovery. I strongly recommend University Sports Massage to everyone. I credit a lot of my success to University Sports Massage and look forward to working with them in the future." "I have been going to University Sports Massage for more than twelve years, and I look forward to any opportunity to receive a massage. I participate in running events: 5k to marathon, and triathlons: sprints to Iron distance, and massage is as important as any of my workouts. I consider massage to be in extremely important part of my recovery during training and for preparation/recovery from races. I highly recommend University Sports Massage. Massage is a great tool for anyone, but especially for active people. The people at University Sports Massage have a particular interest in athletics and active people, therefore they offer great assistance for a specific injury or general full body recovery. They are all very nice people and very flexible to work with your schedule to make appointments. I give University Sports Massage the highest recommendation. I love everytime I am able to go: not only do a receive a great massage, but I also visit with good friends.
