Got the Manchester Marathon coming up? A pre-race sports massage can be a game-changer — but timing is everything!Here’s the physio lowdown: • 1 week before: Perfect for a deeper sports massage to reduce tightness, improve mobility, and help you feel lighter on your feet. • 3-4 days before: Go gentler — think recovery-focused, not intense. You want to be fresh, not sore. • 1-2 days before: Skip the deep work. Opt for light mobility, stretching or stick to your usual taper routine.Why it helps: • Boosts circulation • Reduces muscle tension • Speeds up recovery • Helps you move better on race dayBut…Book it at the wrong time and it can leave you feeling sluggish or sore. If in doubt, ask your physio!Need a pre-marathon massage in Manchester? Our team at Bode Clinic knows exactly how to prep you right.
