Cleanse and Rejuvenate Your Body and Mind!

Kathy Hatvani is a Licensed Massage Therapist and has provided professional, quality massages and alternative health care in the Boise area since 1995.

Sports activities are hard on the body. A therapeutic massage session may be just what you need after a rigorous sports workout to help your body get back to tip-top, pain-free condition. This page is about the Sports Massage.

Sports Massage:Use trigger points and cross fiber therapy to break down adhesions, to increase range of motion.

Sports are brutal! They take a toll on the body as much as hand-to-hand combat. Athletes train, exercise and condition their bodies so that injuries are at a minimum. No matter how much you prepare for sports, the rigorous activity, repetition of motion and rough contact can harm the body in many unforeseen ways.

Miracle Hands’ owner, Kathy Hatvani, takes pride in offering massage that targets those muscles, joints and constrictions that are hazardous to good health for the conscientious athlete.

Muscles that are exercised to the extreme may lose their ability to relax, causing hypertonic muscles (tight) muscles, and the loss of flexibility. Muscle soreness may come from the lack of flexibility and opens the muscle up to injuries like muscle pulls and tears. Ischemia, poor blood flow through tight muscles also causes pain.

Muscle groups are used differently, depending on what sport or athletic event in which you engage. Sports massage therapists are familiar with each muscle, their muscle groups and the way they are affected by the movements and stresses of each sport.

Some of the benefits of Deep Tissue and Sports Massage are:

Regular sports massage can:
* Reduce the chance of injury, or further injury, with stretching and deep tissue massage;
* Improve the range of motion and flexibility to improve power and performance;
* Reduce recovery time between workouts;
* Increase blood circulation;
* Increase the elimination exercise induced metabolic by-products.
