Massage for Knots, Tension & Injury Recovery in Stirling

Muscle tightness, stubborn knots and lingering aches are incredibly common — especially if you spend long hours at a desk, have a busy lifestyle, or are recovering from an injury. At LC Beauty & Wellness in Stirling, our therapeutic massage treatments are designed to relieve tension, support healing and help your body return to balance.

Whether you’re dealing with everyday stiffness or a more specific issue, targeted massage can make a noticeable difference to your comfort, mobility and overall wellbeing.

What Causes Muscle Knots and Tension?

Muscle knots (or “trigger points”) form when fibres within the muscle contract and don’t fully release. This can be caused by:

• Poor posture

• Stress and emotional tension

• Repetitive movements

• Lack of stretching

• Previous injuries

• Long hours sitting or standing

These tight points can lead to discomfort not only in the affected area, but also through surrounding muscles, creating a cycle of stiffness and pain.

Massage works by releasing these contracted fibres, improving blood flow and encouraging the muscle to soften.

How Massage Helps With Knots and Injuries

Our massage techniques at LC Beauty & Wellness focus on relieving tension while supporting the body’s natural repair processes. Benefits include:

• Breaking down muscle knots

Pressure is applied to the knot to soften the tissue and release the contracted fibres.

• Increasing blood flow

Improved circulation boosts oxygen delivery and helps remove inflammation and toxins.

• Reducing pain and tightness

Massage calms the nervous system and encourages muscles to relax, easing discomfort.

• Supporting injury recovery

Massage helps reduce scar tissue, improve mobility, and restore natural movement patterns after injury.

• Improving posture

When tight muscles are released, the body realigns more naturally, helping prevent future tension.

Massage for Injury: When Is It Safe?

Massage can be helpful during both the acute (early) and rehabilitation phases of an injury — but it’s important that the technique is tailored correctly.

At LC Beauty & Wellness, we adapt your treatment depending on:

• The type of injury

• How long you’ve had symptoms

• Whether swelling is still present

• Your range of movement

• Pain levels

We work gently around new injuries and use deeper, more targeted techniques once the tissue is ready.

What to Expect During Your Massage

Your treatment will always begin with a consultation to understand your concerns, lifestyle and any injuries. We may combine different techniques, such as:

• Deep tissue massage

• Trigger point therapy

• Stretching

• Warm oil massage

• Lymphatic techniques for swelling

• Gentle mobility work

Each session is completely personalised to what your body needs that day.

Who Can Benefit?

Massage for knots and injury recovery is ideal for:

• Office workers with neck and back tension

• Gym-goers and active individuals

• People recovering from sprains, strains or repetitive injuries

• Those with chronic tightness from stress

• Anyone experiencing restricted movement

If your body feels tight, heavy or sore — this treatment can help.
