The Post-Gym Secret Hackney Locals Swear By

If you train regularly — at the gym, in classes, or outdoors — you already know the soreness that hits the next day. Tight legs, stiff back, sore shoulders. You stretch, hydrate, maybe foam roll… but sometimes it’s not enough.

That’s when many Hackney gym-goers turn to sports massage.

Unlike general relaxation massage, sports massage focuses on recovery and performance. It helps flush out lactic acid, increase blood flow, and release tight muscles that build up from repetitive movement. It’s not just for professional athletes — it’s for anyone who wants to train smarter and feel better.

At No More Tension, I see everyone from CrossFit enthusiasts and runners in Victoria Park, to everyday gym members who just want to move freely again. After one focused session, most notice:

• Improved flexibility

• Faster recovery between workouts

• Fewer injuries

• Deeper sleep and reduced fatigue

Massage also helps your nervous system unwind — because recovery isn’t only about muscles; it’s about balance.

So if you’ve been searching for a sports massage in Hackney or a massage near me, consider this your post-gym game changer.
