Benson is a professional golfer who plays on The Canadian
Tour, and just qualified to play in The US Open. |
From the day I started school to
become a massage therapist I knew sports massage
was what I wanted to do. Being around athletics has always
been a passion of mine. I became certified in sports
massage in 2004. Since then I’ve worked local races,
helped assemble the massage team for the inaugural Palm
Beach Marathon, treated the 2004 USA Olympic Wrestling
Team, and currently work with the Florida Atlantic
University’s Men’s Basketball Team.
Most universities and professional teams have recognized
the benefits of sports massage therapy and have
therapists on staff. Sports massage can reduce the
chances of injuries, but injuries sometimes are
unpreventable. If and when an athlete does get injured,
sports massage can speed up the recovery time. Other
benefits include relaxation to reduce stress and
performance anxiety, and assisting athletes with their
warm up and cool down with pre and post event massage.
I truly love sports and athletics and I am interested in
assisting athletes from the weekend warriors to the
professionals. If you have a race, sporting event, golf
outing, or are interested in hiring me to work with your
team, please contact me. |
