We are a trio of clinically trained sports massage therapists working to keep you moving freely, efficiently, and pain-free in the activities you love.

At Santa Monica Sports Massage, our sessions incorporate a combination of myofascial release, neuromuscular therapy, sports massage, IASTM (instrument assisted soft-tissue mobilization), cupping (done by Ruzanna and Michelle), and Active Release Technique. While each therapist offers a different style and approach to their sessions, all achieve effective and lasting results.

Youth under the age of 18 who are seeking treatment are required to have a parent or guardian present. If you are scheduling for your child, please select the Youth Manual Therapy option in the bookings menu.

We use massage and manual therapy techniques to treat the following conditions:

• frozen shoulder and rotator cuff injuries
• tendonitis/tendonosis
• hip injuries
• Soft-tissue aches from pregnancy
• thoracic outlet syndrome
• piriformis syndrome and sciatica
• plantar fasciitis
• psoas tightness/weakness
• pre- or post-surgery
• acute and chronic issues, such as neurological, orthopedic, arthritic, soft-tissue, and joint conditions
• hypermobility and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
• TMJD
• headaches and migraines
• long-haul COVID symptoms
• and people who simply have pain or discomfort when moving

We also work with people who have a wide range of health backgrounds. These include people with acute and chronic issues, such as people who have neurological, arthritic, soft-tissue, and joint conditions. Additionally, people who have just had surgery, or who are trying to avoid surgery, have been treated by Michelle.

Some of our patients include USA Olympians, Professional basketball players, Class A PGA Professionals, NFL and NHL players, collegiate athletes, and musicians.
