Remedial & Sports Massage

---

Where orthodox medicine is successful in treating acute emergencies, surgical cases and bacterial infection, Remedial & Sports Massage delivered by a professionally trained therapist is often able to produce more effective results than pharmaceutical intervention for musculo-skeletal problems, stress and anxiety, without any lasting negative side-effects. 

Swedish Massage methods are used as a foundation for this therapy with additional and highly effective techniques being introduced to treat each client on an individual basis, such as

• Advanced consultation skills and appropriate safety checks
• Assessment procedures to accurately identify conditions & injuries
• Myofascial, Neuromuscular and Muscle Energy Techniques (MET)
• Trigger Point Therapy
• Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) Stretching
• Active, Passive and Resisted mobilisations
• Joint and Spinal Mobilisation techniques

in order to

• Reduce pain
• Increase range of movement
• Restore appropriate balance
• Enhance performance
• Reduce the risk of re-injury

A Sports Massage treatment will consist of Swedish Massage techniques as well as additional techniques listed above which are appropriate to the client and circumstance.  

These techniques can be adapted to either a clinic or event setting enabling me to offer a mobile Sports Massage service for pre, inter and post event treatments in addition to my usual clinical setting.  N.B. Mobile service is currently unavailable due to Covid-19 Guidelines

A Sports Massage aims to:

• Reduce pain
• Increase Range of movement
• Restore appropriate balance
• Enhance athletic performance
• Reduce the risk of re-injury
