My Cyclist Sports Massage is designed for all types of cyclists and will vary depending on each clients individual needs. Cycling is a demanding activity that is stressful to the whole body over a prolonged period of time. Many muscle groups are involved, not just the legs and hips. Mostly affected are: calves, quads, glutes, lower back, upper back, shoulders, upper chest, and neck.
