Book Description
Massage your way to enhanced muscle fitness and reduce potential injuries with Performance Massage!

In Performance Massage Robert King, former national president of the American Massage Therapy Association, uses over 150 color photos and step-by-step instructions to explain basic massage therapy for athletes, dancers, and other physically active people.

What makes Performance Massage different from popular relaxation or medical massage? This massage therapy

• features a unique combination of muscle stretching and high-impact massage techniques,

• teaches simple, specific skills,

• applies direct pressure to muscles just beneath the skin so lubricants are not needed, and

• allows the recipient to remain clothed.

Performance Massage techniques are easy to learn and an excellent way to improve your muscles' performance!

I much preferred "The Healing Art of Sports Massage"--it's author has impressive experience that was every day for 20+ years...the illustrations and text/knowledge are clearer and easier to apply.
