Although tennis is a relatively safe game [there are approx. 54 injuries per 1,000 tennis matches played, which is half the injuries sustained in football] it does put stress and strain on the body, which left unchecked can result in injury.

The main tennis injuries are:

1.  Sprained ankle

2.  Shoulder pain

3.  Calf strain

4.  Tennis elbow

5.  Stress fracture of the back

Visit PhysioRoom.com to learn more about what these are, how they occur and how to prevent them happening.

Regular sports massage should be viewed as a prevention rather than cure strategy.  Whilst it can help with recovery from an injury its best to make sure the injury doesn't occur in the first place.

Regular sports massage will:

* lengthen and relax tight, overused muscles

* restores correct muscle function

* removes waste products/lactic acid build up

* thereby aiding quicker recovery time
