Is there work for sports massage therapists?

Most sports are competitive and if you are to try and win, you are likely to need to push yourself 100%. Now you would expect to run a car at 100% for a long time and expect it never to have problems so it is not a huge leap of faith that we cannot expect our body to either. Sports people will pull/strain themselves or receive injuries from contact sports. Now the thing with sport people is that they are competitive and need to be right asap so they can get out there again and do the thing that gives them that certain buzz. This is where a sports massage therapist comes in.
If you complete one of the many sports massage courses you can help get these sports people over their injuries, you can help the person wind down and warm up prior after and prior to an event etc. Sports people will pay to gain an advantage and sports massage therapist can be right there to help them.
