Sports Massage

Do You Suffer from Shoulder Pain, Back Issues, or Muscle Strain?


If you’re struggling with back pain, shoulder tension, or any muscle discomfort, sports massage can provide effective relief. Whether you're an athlete or simply dealing with everyday aches, this therapy is designed to help you recover, stay mobile, and perform at your best.

​

What is Sports Massage?


Sports massage is a specialised type of massage that focuses on preventing and treating injuries to muscles, tendons, and soft tissues. It is ideal for anyone who exercises regularly or experiences muscle strain due to physical activity or even daily life. Sports massage combines deep tissue techniques with stretching and mobilisation to relieve tension, improve mobility, and accelerate recovery.

​

This form of therapy isn’t just for athletes; it benefits anyone dealing with muscle pain, stiffness, or mobility issues, whether from sports, work, or lifestyle factors.

​

I'm Not Much Into Sport — Is Sports Massage Good for Me Too?


Absolutely! Sports massage isn’t just for athletes or people who are highly active. If you experience muscle tightness, back or shoulder pain from desk work, poor posture, or even everyday stress, sports massage can still be incredibly beneficial. It helps to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote overall well-being.

​

Many of the clients I work with aren't heavily involved in sports but come to me for relief from chronic pain, stiffness, or discomfort caused by sitting for long periods, repetitive movements, or simply the wear-and-tear of daily life. Sports massage is tailored to each individual’s needs, focusing on the areas that require the most attention, regardless of fitness level.

How Sports Massage Can Benefit You


Sports massage is key to keeping your body in top condition. It helps you train harder, recover faster, and reduce the risk of injury. Many injuries, particularly overuse injuries, develop slowly and can go unnoticed until they become serious. By treating these early, sports massage can prevent them from becoming a bigger problem.

​

While injury prevention is the ultimate aim, I also work to get injured clients back to training or competition safely and quickly. More and more people are realising that recovery and self-care are crucial components of a complete training routine.
