Sports massage in Clifton, Bristol

Calf massage

The two calf muscles, the gastrocnemius and the deeper soleus, lift the whole body weight with every step. Running, walking hills, standing all day and wearing heels all keep them short.

Worked in layers

Ankle bend is measured with the knee straight and bent, which shows which calf muscle is tighter. The surface gastrocnemius is released first, then the soleus, then the Achilles along its length and the sole of the foot.

Calves and the rest of the leg

The calf links through the Achilles to the sole of the foot and behind the knee to the hamstrings, so both are checked in the same session.

Reviews

Calf massage reviews

★★★★★
I have suffered with constant overuse injuries for two years before I hired James. Since I started working with James, and getting regular treatment from him, I have stayed injury free for over 3 years.

After one treatment session with James I was moving better than I had before. After two treatment sessions I started to feel optimistic about a pain free future.

Questions

Is calf massage painful?

Calves are often tender, so pressure builds slowly.

Can calf massage help cramps?

Many people find night cramps ease once tight calves are released. Frequent cramps are worth raising with your GP.

Do you treat a calf strain?

See your GP about a sudden sharp pain or swelling first.
