Role of Ayurvedic Massage for Improving Athletes Performance and Healing: A Case Study

Abstract

Ayurvedic sports massage can be used as a complementary therapy for athletes recovering from injuries. It is an effective approach to fatigue fighting, pain elimination, and accelerating body regeneration processes. The most often applied techniques include effleurage (stroking), petrissage (kneading), friction, and rolling using a massage roller. A massage always energizes the body from the inside out and has many other advantages. It may be advantageous for anyone experiencing body or muscular fatigue. If you have certain regions of your body that hurts an ayurvedic massage is a great option. The frequency of massage therapy depends on the specific injury and the individual athlete’s needs, but it is typically recommended to have regular sessions throughout the recovery process. Ayurveda also offers psychological components such as drugs, diet, Panchakarma, lifestyle changes, meditation, and yoga, which can be beneficial in sports psychology and injury rehabilitation. Ayurvedic sports massage is a great way to support and feed internal organs and tissues. Ayurvedic sports massage is one of the several ayurvedic treatments available to athletes.
