When to book after a marathon
Leave two to three days after the race before a sports massage, and up to a week if your legs are very sore. Muscles need time to settle first, so the first session afterwards is gentle.

Reviews
Sports massage after marathon reviews
I have suffered with constant overuse injuries for two years before I hired James. Since I started working with James, and getting regular treatment from him, I have stayed injury free for over 3 years.
I chanced on James through a friend's referral just before I was to be sent for surgery through the NHS. He was a breath of fresh air in terms of how he assessed and treated the injury.
