Supporting you to keep going, time and time again.
Clinical Assessment
The assessment is an important opportunity for you to outline any pain or injuries that you are experiencing. During this I will ask relevant questions to get a detailed understanding of your lifestyle, sporting interests and diet.
Following our discussion I will perform a variety of movements and functional tests with you to ensure we understand the root cause of the problem.
This can last up to 20 minutes and will inform the best ways to treat you.
Advanced Sports Massage
Sports massage is the manipulation of soft tissue like muscle, skin, tendons, ligaments and fascia to help reduce pain, tension and assist in the treatment and rehabilitation of injuries. The therapy can help correct imbalances in the soft tissue caused by strenuous and repetitive movements.
Sports massage has physical, physiological, neurological and psychological effects on the body’s systems.
Injury Rehabilitation
Injuries go through various stages of healing. Whether it's an acute injury like an ankle ligament sprain, or a chronic injury like tennis elbow which has come on over a period of months, it's important we treat each phase appropriately, at the right time to get the best outcome.
This will mean doing the right types of movements that will progress as pain reduces and range of motion and strength improves.
Injuries don't always occur through sport!
Injuries occur in various circumstances, and you don't have to be a sports person to benefit from this therapy.
Tennis Elbow, for example is a chronic injury which affects the forearm tendons. This is an overuse injury that many non-sporting people experience through repetitive movements.
If you're experiencing pain then get in touch. I'll be happy to discuss it with you.

WHAT CLIENTS HAVE SAID
"As a sportsman that demands a lot of himself, Mike understands how sportsmen and women think. That empathy means he’s always looking for the best way to keep you in the game or improve your performance."
"Mike was extremely helpful ahead of an event when I was being troubled by muscle tightness and cramps. His treatments energised me and gave me confidence in my body to compete in my race."
"Really good sports massage and just what I needed after a tough summer of cycling and running. The massage made my legs feel much fresher and eased the little issues I had picked up."
"The massage on my back and legs made me feel super refreshed for training - even helped me get a few PB’s! Mike also identified areas of tightness that I wasn’t aware of and gave me tips to try and prevent them in my day to day life. The experience was very comfortable and I can’t wait for my next one!"
"100% highly recommend Mike, puts you at ease straight away and a true professional, have had many a massage but none more so than this one that has felt like true medicine for my back, going to be making this part of my monthly health and well-being routine."
"Mike certainly knows what he is doing. I think being an active sportsperson himself it added to understanding from normal masseuses, although my back injury was sustained from collecting firewood in my garden Mike knew what to do and I’m on the road to recovery."
