Reach new heights in health & performance with sports massage and movement therapy.
Whatever your game– cycling, running, Crossfit, Yoga, martial arts, or something else entirely– the thrill of achievement is in your heart and mind.
There’s a certain excitement that comes from setting a personal best, reaching a new goal, overcoming challenges…
The problem? Injuries sneak up on you.
What seems like a small injury can knock you out of training for days, weeks, or even months.
And performance? Well, after all that work building yourself up, it sure goes away fast when an injury keeps you out of action.
What’s standing between you and your next goal?
It could be your training.
If you’re like most athletes, you look for ways to put a fine edge on your performance. You push yourself. You do everything your coaches and teachers ask, and more. It brings you joy, satisfaction, accomplishment…
And eventually crippling pain.
At least that’s what happened to me, and to many of the athletes I work with. That’s right. Most injuries happen not despite training, but because of it. It’s a pattern I see over and over.
Those powerful quadriceps muscles you built pull the pelvis out of whack… and make your back work twice as hard just to stand up straight.
That strong throwing arm awes players on both sides of the ball… and sets you up for chronic shoulder pain and spinal twist.
Athletes are great at pushing through pain. But pain is a warning sign. Something needs fixed. Maybe it’s already happened to you. Maybe it will happen tomorrow, or next week, or next month.
It doesn’t have to.
Maximize your performance while healing old injuries and preventing new ones.
Whether you’re healing injuries or preventing new ones, successful treatment comes in two parts.
Sports Massage
- Improves blood flow to the muscles for faster healing and better recovery so you’re ready to hit your next training session hard.
- increases your pain free range of motion for injury prevention. Studies show as little as 30 seconds of sports massage on the hip flexors improves range of motion.
Movement Therapy
- Strengthens and lubricates joints, and removes restrictions that limit your range of motion and function.
- Helps your body move more freely and effortlessly by teaching your nervous system efficient movement patterns.
Tap into 20+ years of hands-on experience in muscle and joint health.
Your treatment at Asheville Pain & Performance is personalized to you and your performance goals. Each session is conducted by a professional therapist with training in fields like:
- Anatomy and physiology: provides understanding of how your body is put together and works as a finely detailed machine.
- Neuromuscular therapy: balances your muscles and nervous system, attacking injuries and pain at its source.
- Posturology: ensures your entire body’s structure is aligned for maximum function with minimal strain.
- Biomechanics: shows breakdowns in efficient movement patterns that rob you of performance.
- Evolutionary biology: explores the why of how your body moves the way it does and how it relates to efficient and effortless motion.
