Sports Injuries and Prevention

Introducing our specialized sports injury prevention and treatment services in Calgary, Alberta, featuring the powerful combination of massage therapy and acupuncture. Whether you're an adult athlete striving for peak performance or a pediatric athlete seeking to excel in your sport, our skilled therapists and acupuncturists are here to support you on your athletic journey.

Our massage therapy treatments are specifically tailored to address the unique needs of athletes. Through targeted techniques such as deep tissue massage and sports massage, we work to prevent injuries by reducing muscle tension, improving flexibility, and enhancing circulation. Our therapists utilize their expertise to identify and address areas of concern, helping you optimize your physical performance while minimizing the risk of injuries. In the unfortunate event of a sports injury, our massage therapy treatments play a pivotal role in the healing process, aiding in pain management, reducing inflammation, and accelerating recovery.

In addition to massage therapy, our acupuncture services offer a powerful tool for sports injury prevention and treatment. Acupuncture stimulates the body's natural healing mechanisms, promoting pain relief, reducing inflammation, and enhancing tissue healing. Dry needling, a technique used in acupuncture, involves the precise insertion of needles into trigger points or tight muscle bands, releasing tension and promoting muscular relaxation. This can help alleviate muscle imbalances, address compensation patterns, and prevent further injuries. By incorporating dry needling into sports injury management and prevention, athletes can benefit from enhanced recovery, reduced risk of re-injury, and improved performance on the field or court.  Dr. Robin is trained in both traditional Acupuncture and Dry Needling - and will create the perfect blend of treatments for you to play to your highest level!
