Massage techniques can be used not only for relaxation, but also in sports-where the right massage technique can be used for regeneration, rehabilitation, and injury prevention. The mixture of photos and anatomical drawings makes it incredibly easy to understand every technique and put them into practice. Sports massage is a manual therapy method that is integrated into the training programs of professional athletes to strengthen and improve their health.
