If you’re new to sports massage therapy, you may be wondering what to wear to your session. While there are no hard and fast rules, there are some general guidelines that you can follow to help you feel comfortable and get the most out of your session. In this article, we will explore what to wear to a sports massage therapy session, including clothing, footwear, and accessories.

What you should wear for a sports massage

Clothing for a Sports Massage

When it comes to clothing for a sports massage, comfort is key. You’ll want to wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement. Clothing made from breathable fabrics such as cotton or moisture-wicking materials is ideal, as it will help keep you cool and dry during the session.

For women, a sports bra and shorts or leggings are a good option. Men can wear shorts and a t-shirt or tank top. Some people prefer to wear compression clothing, such as compression shorts or leggings, to help support their muscles during the session.

Footwear for a Sports Massage

You won’t need any special footwear for a sports massage session. You’ll be lying down on a massage table for the majority of the session, so you can remove your shoes and socks if you wish. However, if you’re coming straight from a workout or competition, you may want to wear comfortable sneakers or trainers to the session.

Accessories for a Sports Massage

When it comes to accessories for a sports massage, less is more. You’ll want to avoid wearing any jewelry or accessories that may get in the way or cause discomfort during the session. It’s also a good idea to tie your hair back if it’s long, so it doesn’t get in the way during the massage.

What to Bring to a Sports Massage

You don’t need to bring anything special to a sports massage therapy session. However, you may want to bring a change of clothes if you’re coming straight from a workout or competition. It’s also a good idea to bring a water bottle to stay hydrated after the session.
