Stretching
The use of sports massage will improve flexibility that normal stretches cannot improve.
Elasticity
Hard training can cause muscle tissue to tighten up and become inelastic. Sports massage can greatly improve muscle tissue elasticity which then improves co-ordination, reaction times and agility.
Tissue permeability
Sports massage can increase tissue permeability which means valuable nutrients and minerals are more easily able to pass through to the muscles. Increased tissue permeability also helps the removal of lactic acid and other waste products that produce as a result of exercise.

Sports massage greatly reduces the period of rehabilitation after suffering an injury. It also helps prevent injuries from happening in the first place.
