Course Description
A kind of massage that is becoming more and more popular. Due to its many advantages, it is used not only by official and amateur athletes, but also by many of those who do not do sports at all. Regular sports massage helps prevent injuries by improving muscle condition.
A good masseuse recognizes stiff muscles and scar tissue, which, if left untreated, can lead to injury. In order to provide effective treatment, therapists must also understand human anatomy and physiology. Sports massage can be classified as mechanotherapy at the level of massage. Fitness and sports massage can also be performed on healthy people. Sports massage can be used to treat certain injuries, as well as muscle imbalances and posture problems. In addition, it helps prevent sports injuries, improves muscle condition and performance.
Advantages of sports massage:
Sports massage plays an important role in the life of every athlete, regardless of whether they are injured or not. It is essential in treating certain injuries and preventing future injuries. it has a calming effect, reduces muscle spasms, relieves pain caused by stiff muscles, relaxes stiff, stuck muscles, so they become more loadable and less vulnerable to injury. It empties the accumulated toxins (for example, lactic acid) from tight muscles, speeds up recovery in case of injury, and loosens tight muscles in people who lead a sedentary lifestyle. The intensive massage prepares you for exercise, as a result of which the performance of our muscles increases significantly, and the chances of injuries decrease. The purpose of the post-sports massage is regeneration, which consists of two main stages.
The purpose of the massage performed immediately after straining the muscles is to remove waste materials and toxins from the stressed tissues as soon as possible. In such cases, it is recommended to drink plenty of fluids. Muscle fever can be avoided by removing the accumulated lactic acid. The importance of subsequent massages (for example, between training sessions) is that our muscles regenerate and the appropriate muscle tone is restored.

Student Feedback
I work in a gym, where I noticed how much the athletes miss the post-workout massage. I thought about it a lot before the idea of ​​taking the sports massage course came to me. I told my idea to the manager of the gym and he liked my plan. That is why I completed the Humanmed Academy course. I received thorough preparation. I was happy that I could watch the videos as many times as I wanted, so I could practice safely. I passed the exam and have been working as a sports masseuse ever since. I am happy that I took this step.
I received thorough theoretical and practical knowledge.
The instructor's competence always confirmed that I was in the right place.
The emphasis was on practical knowledge, which helped in immediate application.
I am a masseuse and I wanted to expand my knowledge. I received comprehensive and thorough tutorials. I think the amount of study materials is a bit much, but apart from that, everything was fine. :)
