A sports massage mixes firm strokes, stretching and focused pressure on the muscles you use most when you train, such as calves, hamstrings, hips and shoulders. It is planned around your sport and your calendar. A RHEA therapist comes to your home in Dubai with the table, linens and oils, from 8am every day.

Who a sports massage suits
- You run along the Marina, the canal or JBR and your legs feel heavy after long runs.
- You play padel or tennis several times a week.
- You lift weights or do classes and want a session on rest days.
- You are training for a race or a cycling event and want regular sessions in the build-up.
- You prefer to recover at home instead of driving to a spa after training.
Before or after training in Dubai
After a long run
Book for the evening or the next morning. Your therapist works on calves, hamstrings, glutes and hips.
Padel and tennis
Shoulders, forearms and the lower back get most of the attention, with stretches at the end.
Before a race
A lighter session two or three days before an event. Avoid deep work the day before.
Gym and classes
A rest-day session focused on the areas you trained hardest that week.
What does a 90-minute sports massage at home include?
Ninety minutes of hands-on time, enough for legs, hips, back and shoulders, plus stretches. Your therapist brings a professional table, fresh linens and oils. It costs AED 550 with travel within our areas included. Muscle Relax Oil (AED 45) can be added when you book.
Injuries
A sports massage is a wellness session, not treatment for an injury. Do not book it on a fresh strain, sprain or swelling. If something hurts sharply, see a doctor or physiotherapist first.
Is a sports massage right for you?
A good fit if you…
- train several times a week
- want work on legs, hips and shoulders
- like firm pressure with stretching
Choose another option if you…
- want a sleepy, gentle session (choose Swedish)
- have a fresh injury
- want physiotherapy or rehabilitation
Pressure, pace and stretching
A sports massage changes with your calendar. Before an event the pace is brisker and the pressure moderate, to leave you feeling loose rather than heavy. On a recovery day the strokes slow down and go firmer through the calves, quads, glutes and upper back.
Assisted stretches are woven in: a hamstring lift with your leg on the therapist's shoulder, a gentle hip opener, a chest and shoulder stretch. Each one is held while you breathe out, never pushed past what feels comfortable.
Your therapist and your training week
RHEA therapists are trained and vetted. In a sports session they ask practical questions: what you trained this week, what is coming up, and which side feels tighter. A runner the week after a long run, a padel player mid-tournament and someone starting a new gym programme will each get a different session.
Before your session: timing it right
- Book on a rest day, or a few hours after training once you have showered and eaten.
- Know your next race or match date so the session can be lighter or firmer accordingly.
- Wear or keep handy a pair of shorts if you prefer them for leg work.
- Tell us about any niggle or old injury, even if it feels fine today.
Afterwards: easy does it
Your legs may feel heavy for an hour or two, then lighter by the next morning. Drink water, eat a proper meal and keep any movement easy: a walk, a slow swim or some mobility work. In the hotter months, hydrate a little more than you think you need.
A sports massage routine in Dubai
Dubai's outdoor training season runs through the cooler months, roughly October to April, with most big races and rides in that window. In a race build-up, many people book weekly or every other week. In summer, when training moves indoors or to early mornings, a session every three to four weeks often keeps things ticking over. Sessions start at 8am, so a booking straight after a sunrise run along the Marina or the canal is easy.
