Whether you’re a competitive athlete, just keep fit for fun, or someone dealing with the physical strains of everyday life, sports massage can help you feel better, recover faster, and move more freely. Its versatility and effectiveness make it an invaluable tool for improving muscle health, preventing injuries, and enhancing overall performance.

Soft tissue release (STR) is a highly effective and advanced manual therapy technique aimed at assessing, treating, and stretching the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, tendons, and fascia. By targeting specific areas of tension and dysfunction, this method helps restore balance, flexibility, and optimal movement, making it invaluable for athletes and sports enthusiasts of all levels.

A highly effective hands-on therapy technique designed to improve the mobility, flexibility, and overall function of muscles and connective tissues.

Whether recovering from an injury or looking to enhance overall joint function, joint mobilisation offers a natural, non-invasive way to improve mobility and alleviate pain.

A precise and effective manual therapy technique aimed at improving joint health, reducing pain, and increasing range of motion.

Whether recovering from an injury or looking to enhance overall joint function, joint mobilisation offers a natural, non-invasive way to improve mobility and alleviate pain.

Deep transverse frictional massage is designed to address specific lesions in muscles, tendons and ligaments and is a highly effective method for reducing adhesions, relieving pain, improving circulation, and facilitating the healing and remodelling of scar tissue.

For athletes, this therapy is an essential tool in maintaining performance, promoting recovery, and preventing chronic injury.

A highly effective and interactive form of manual therapy that uses the body’s own energy to restore joint range of motion, improve muscle length, and enhance overall function.

Unlike passive treatments, MET actively involves the client in a collaborative approach which  promotes physical recovery and empowers individuals by integrating their body’s natural strength and movement into the healing process.

Trigger point therapy is a specialised form of manual therapy focused on identifying and deactivating painful nodules, or ‘trigger points’ within muscle tissue. These trigger points are often described as hyper-irritable spots that can cause localised pain or radiating discomfort in other areas of the body. By applying targeted pressure and other techniques, trigger point therapy reduces pain, restores function, and improves range of movement.

For athletes and active individuals, trigger point therapy offers an effective solution to address muscle tension, enhance performance, and prevent further injury.

Widely used in sports therapy, MET is particularly valuable for athletes who rely on optimal mobility, strength, and proprioception to perform at their best.

For athletes, this therapy is an essential tool in maintaining performance, promoting recovery, and preventing chronic injury.

Myofascial release (MFR) is a highly effective manual therapy technique that focuses on releasing tension and restrictions in the fascia – the connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs. The fascia plays a crucial role in supporting and stabilising the body, but when it becomes tight, inflamed, or restricted, it can contribute to pain, decreased mobility, and postural imbalances.

By addressing these fascial restrictions, myofascial release helps alleviate discomfort, improve flexibility, and correct alignment.
