THE EXPERTS IN MASSAGE

The NSWIS service is designed so that the soft tissue therapist can work closely with the athlete’s physiotherapist when designing programs that may help with performance preparation, injury management or recovery. With the knowledge that massage is not always available for every sport at all competitions, there is a focus on helping athletes establish self-directed strategies towards performance preparation and recovery.
