Ultra Hybrid Sports Massage & Assisted Stretching

In my experience in both sports massage and assisted stretching, I recognised that while each treatment on its own could provide excellent results, combining them would create an even more powerful approach to bodywork. Some muscles are deep-seated and difficult to reach, while others hold tension in ways that traditional massage or stretching alone might not fully address. That’s where the Ultra Hybrid session comes in.

I designed this treatment to first prepare the muscles with assisted stretching, targeting areas like the hips, shoulders, and back. Stretching increases blood flow to the muscles, improving their pliability and making them more receptive to deeper work. Once the muscles are warmed and loose, the sports massage is applied to target deeper muscle layers and knots, ensuring that no tension goes untreated. This combination not only helps release tightness but also restores range of motion and improves flexibility.

How It Works: Stretch, Then Massage
The Ultra Hybrid session starts with assisted stretching, where I, as your certified stretch therapist, guide your body through a range of stretches tailored to your needs. This includes static stretches, PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation), and dynamic stretches designed to loosen the muscles and joints. The stretching phase makes it easier to penetrate deeper into muscles during the massage portion, as your body is already more relaxed and receptive.

Once the stretching is complete, the focus shifts to a sports massage tailored to your specific muscle groups. By combining these two techniques, the Ultra Hybrid ensures that no muscle is left untreated. Deeper layers of tension are released, and you’ll walk away feeling not just relaxed, but with improved mobility and reduced stiffness.

Who Benefits from the Ultra Hybrid Session?
This unique treatment is ideal for anyone who experiences chronic muscle tightness, whether it’s from a physically demanding job, athletic training, or

a sedentary lifestyle that results in poor posture and muscle tension. The Ultra Hybrid session is particularly beneficial for:

Athletes: Whether you’re a professional athlete or a weekend warrior, this session helps target the muscle groups most used in your sport, aiding in injury prevention, faster recovery, and improved performance.

Gym Enthusiasts: If you lift weights, run, or engage in high-intensity workouts, your muscles can become tight and overworked. The Ultra Hybrid helps you release deep muscle tension and increase flexibility, making it easier to push harder in your next workout.

Office Workers: Sitting at a desk all day can wreak havoc on your posture, causing tightness in areas like the neck, shoulders, and lower back. The combination of stretching and massage helps release tension from prolonged sitting, restoring mobility and reducing pain.
