Though ideal for athletes, sports massage offers benefits to anyone dealing with muscular strain or stiffness.

FAQs

Is Sports Massage suitable for me?

Sports massage isn’t advisable for: open wounds, acute muscle tears, broken bones, recent surgery, bleeding disorders, or if taking blood thinners. Our qualified therapists will ensure treatment is appropriate before starting.

Sports Massage is ideal for easing muscular tension and speeding recovery after sporting events.

Physiotherapy is more appropriate for pain, specific injuries, or joint/tendon/ligament problems, including comprehensive diagnosis and treatment planning.

Sports massage is applied directly to skin for maximum effectiveness. Bring comfortable shorts or loose-fitting clothing.

I have used Richard for two separate issues in the last. On both occasions he has responded quickly to the request for an appointment. His explanations are really clear and his diagnoses and treatment plans have been spot on in both cases.

Richard gave me a quick diagnosis and a strength-building plan to get me over a persistent calf injury, which had stopped me running. It was a clear, easy-to-follow plan which solved the problem and will help me avoid further injuries in the future.
