"Massage for Athletes"
Massage has been one of the earliest forms of physical therapy, dating back almost 3000 years. Sports Massage is specifically geared toward the athlete’s needs. Athletic Tune-up Professionals (ATP) has been helping athletes since 1997. Ron graduated in 1997 from Austin Schools of Massage in Austin, TX, and also has a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise & Sports Science from Southwest Texas State University (a.k.a. Texas State University of San Marcos).
Ron’s knowledge of anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, health & fitness and his experience in athletic training, sports & recreation give him a unique style of sports massage. ATP means energy, so Ron is all about getting your body energized so you can work on your flexibility and have a great workout. ATP wants to eliminate your pain and discomfort and prevent injuries so you can achieve your greatest athletic performance.
ATP will use a variety of massage techniques in order to fix an injury. Ron uses Swedish massage, hydrotherapy, deep tissue, Myofascial release, and trigger point, (ROM) range of motion, stretching, and strength exercises to correct an injury. It is no fun to play when you are hurt or when you have discomfort. Overuse of injured muscles may often create problems and imbalances in the soft tissues, which may become chronic if ignored. For example, "turf toe",“shin splints”, and "plantar fasciitis". ATP will target the areas needed to reduce the pain and help the athlete perform to their fullest potential.
Over the years, ATP has helped many athletes of all types and skill levels. Athletes in sports such as football, basketball, soccer, baseball, softball as well as triathletes, gymnast, swimmers, golfers and runners which have all improved their game with the ATP’s sports massage treatment.
