Injuries are a fact of life that can occur to any one of us at any time, no matter how fit or well trained we are. Should you have an existing problem or incur an injury, for example backache, sprained ankle, or knee problems, our trained therapists will assess the injury and help rehabilitate you. For more specific problems we are linked to a wide range of professionals including physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors and GP's.

If the muscles become too tense, so does the mind."

In today's world our bodies' flight or fight response is often activated due to the pressures of work, family and finances. Unlike our predecessors who ran away or attacked we are left with pressures in our head that may stay with us for extended periods of time. This can wreak havoc on all major systems of the body and can weaken our immune system.

Massage can be extremely beneficial for both mental and physical stress. Along with your training or separately, it can aid with that all-important de-stressing or pinpoint and improve deeper physical problems.

Massage can have a great effect on the major physiological systems of the body, it is pointless working out if muscles are sore, tired or overused. Upper back and neck problems due to poor posture and being stuck behind a desk all day are suffered by all of us from time to time. Massage can loosen the muscles and remove unwanted waste products within the cells.

Massage also helps to break down scar tissue and improve range of movement in joints, this is especially important if you have a new or ongoing injury. Sports Therapy Massage after or during an injury is essential for rehabilitation in the shortest possible time and to avoid recurrence.
