Sports Massage

When you come to me for an hour’s massage, that is exactly what you get: a whole hour of Sports massage. When you go to some therapists, saunas and salons your hour will include 5 minutes at the start for getting undressed and onto the massage table, then another 5 or 10 minutes at the end for you to lie there, come back into the real world and get dressed. Not with us.

Your appointment consists of a whole hour of being massaged. So please allow longer for your appointment, specially if it is your first time here (when we will ask you to complete a health form).

If you routinely push yourself to physical limits, you can benefit from a Sports Massage or Deep Tissue Massage. If you are a sports person, massage can have an enormous impact on your performance; regular treatments can allow you to train to your full potential and recover to the best of your body’s ability.

To ensure that your muscles are properly maintained, you should aim to have a good Sports Massage at least once a month and more frequently pre or mid-season.

Muscular tension, stress and fatigue can affect all of us, whether we’re athletes, DIY fanatics, gardeners, busy housewives, or stressed executives.

Following energetic activity, you will have experienced soreness, strain, bruising, tightness, pain or weakness in your muscles.

Sports Massage or Deep Tissue Massage can improve the condition of your muscles and alleviate these symptoms.

Clients often report that they feel a greater sense of tranquility and balance after a treatment.
