Athletic Recovery & Performance Bodywork in Pacific Beach

Athletic bodywork requires a therapist who understands how sport-specific movement patterns create predictable tension, where overuse injuries develop, and how to sequence a session for maximum recovery impact. Toni is our primary athletic recovery specialist and is our top recommendation for this session. As a competitive rock climber, Toni brings firsthand understanding of training load, overuse patterns, and sport-specific tension that most therapists simply don't have. Her sessions are precise, effective, and adapted to your sport, your body, and your training schedule. Every session blends sports massage, deep tissue, Thai compression, myofascial release, and cupping in whatever combination your body needs that day.

Hydrate well. If possible, avoid intense training the same day so your tissue is receptive. Arrive ready to describe your sport, training schedule, and current areas of concern. After: Light movement encouraged — walking, easy stretching. Avoid heavy training for 12-24 hours to allow tissue integration. Drink plenty of water.

Please inform your therapist of any acute injuries, recent surgeries, stress fractures, open wounds, or active inflammation before your session. We will always adapt the work to your body's current condition. If you are mid-injury and unsure whether massage is appropriate, reach out before booking and we will advise.
